 Sean Montgomery, Roland Europe V-Accordion Product Manager (picture right) writes: "Roland is pleased to announce a significant ‘Version 2’ system update for their flagship FR-8X V-Accordion. This free, user-installable upgrade adds many new improvements and enhancements designed to make the FR-8X even more versatile in any musical situation. Based on user feedback, the new features include new drum and orchestral parameters, improved control of audio files, more Looper functionality and new Orchestral Chord ‘voicing’ capabilities. The Version 2 update will be officially launched by Uwe Steger in a dedicated workshop on Saturday November 1st, as part of the 67th Coupe Mondiale in Salzburg, Austria. This workshop will be available to view online at the Coupe Mondiale website from 4:00pm CET. http://www.coupemondiale.org/2014/video.htm Since the revolutionary V-Accordion was first launched in 2004, Roland has introduced many digital accordion models culminating with the current FR-8X launched in 2013. Roland has recently announced a manufacturing agreement with Fatar Srl that will ensure that production of the V-Accordion range remains in Italy. A dedicated team of Roland staff based at Fatar srl, together with Fatar's world-renowned craftsmanship and quality standards, will ensure that Roland remains dedicated to the ongoing development of the specialised Roland V-Accordion models."
