With organ sounds based on Roland’s acclaimed VK-Series,
the VR-760 can sound just like a vintage organ—complete with
a range of spectacular COSM
®
amp and rotary speaker models.
The VR-760 includes a stunning collection of acoustic
piano sounds, plus newly sampled electric pianos that are
so realistic, you’ll swear it’s the real thing.
Synthesizer sounds include lush pads, strings,
brass, bass sounds, electronic sounds and more—
complete with two SRX expansion slots.
■Piano Section
This panel area provides direct control of the
VR-760’s piano sounds. Select among various acoustic
and electric piano tones, adjust the overall volume,
and even set the mic distance and amp modeling
parameters. Multi-effects settings can also be made.
■Synth Section
Here players can select among the different tone
variations in the synth section. Dedicated Tone
Modify knobs make it easy to adjust basic sound
parameters. There are also controls for multi-effects
settings, Active Expression and overall volume.
The VR-760 uses the same “Virtual ToneWheel” technology found
in the popular VK-8 Combo Organ—complete with COSM Amp and
Rotary Speaker Modeling—for the most realistic organ tones
imaginable. Three tone wheel types (Vintage 1, Vintage 2 and
Clean) accurately simulate the sound of clean gospel organs, gritty
rock organs and everything in between.
Of course, the sound itself is only half of the story. That’s why
Roland gave the VR-760 a 76-note waterfall keyboard—ideal for
the distinctive style of organ playing. Seasoned organists will be
right at home with these quick-firing keys, which are perfect for
playing solos and
glissandos. Nine harmonic
bars give you full control
over the organ tones,
which can be played back
with full polyphony.
Four COSM amp models further enhance the VR-760’s organs,
delivering a range of distinctive overdriven amp sounds. The VR-760
can even simulate the effect of a vintage rotary speaker with full
control over rotary speed and braking. Get those vintage speaker
sounds you want without having to hunt down (or move) the real thing!
When it comes to classic Rhodes and other electric pianos, the
VR-760 is hard to beat. These newly-sampled electric pianos are
quite simply the finest Roland has ever offered. And with new
COSM Amp Modeling, you can get those classic “suitcase” and
“stage” sounds without need for a speaker cabinet—you won’t
believe your ears! Dedicated multi-effects let you add anything
from rich-sounding chorus to vintage phasing, tremolo and wah
effects to create just the electric piano sound you’re after.
The VR-760 boasts some of Roland’s finest acoustic piano sounds
ever, just like our professional digital pianos used on stages the
world over. Whether you need expressive grand pianos or bright
pop pianos engineered to cut through the mix, the VR-760 has you
covered. New COSM Mic Modeling gives these piano sounds natural
ambience and resonance—just like a miked grand!
With its high-quality synthesizer section, the VR-760 gives players
access to just about any sound imaginable. So whether you need
rich orchestral sounds or a fat synth lead, you won’t have to
search long. Just choose from one of several Tone categories—like
Strings, Choir/Scat, Brass, Synth Lead, Synth Pad and Bass—and
select the sound you need. Two slots for optional SRX-Series
expansions let you add up to 128MB of high-quality sounds
tailored for specific genres and applications. These sounds can be
further enhanced using the dedicated multi-effects processor,
which serves up 40 studio-quality algorithms like distortion,
flanging, delay and an enhancer.

Unrivaled Electric Piano Sounds
Acoustic Pianos That Are Truly “Grand”
An Expandable Synthesizer with Breathtaking Sounds
With onboard 3-band EQ, the VR-760 lets players tailor their sounds for
any live venue. This professional equalizer offers control over the Low,
Mid and High frequencies bands—complete with a sweepable mid.
Three varieties of reverb (Room, Hall and Church) give the VR-760’s
organ, piano and synthesizer sounds just the right amount of ambience.
The VR-760’s light-sensing D Beam
provides realtime control over
parameters like octave, glide or
rotary speed. And with Active
Expression, you can slowly fade in a synth
sound while playing an organ tone—or even
intensify the sound’s richness and volume—
using an optional EV-7 Expression Pedal. And
with new V-LINK technology, you can trigger
video clips from the VR-760’s keyboard or
Registration buttons*. Features like these can
only be found in the VR-760.
