Roland A-01 Controller+Generator Unboxing

Roland A-01 Controller+Generator Unboxing

I bought a Roland A-01 Controller+Generator and made this video of me unboxing and and powering it on for the first time.

This unit originally hit the market at a $399 price point, but most recently it has been selling for $299.  I’ve been seeing them on sale for a while from the source I list in the video for $149 and though it was a good value at that price point.

I’ll be including it in future videos as soon as I read the manuals and learn how to configure and integrate it into my setup.  It has MIDI ports as well as MIDI via Bluetooth and CV and Gate ports.  There’s also a sequencer built in that’s in addition to the 8-bit synthesizer.
