This is a complete tour of all the features of the ROLI Seaboard Rise 2. The Seaboard Rise 2 is an expressive instrument, an evolution of the original Seaboard Rise. In this video, I’ll cover the new features including the new precision frets, the surface, the sounds, software included, and more.
I know you're excited to hear about the new features...so I'll cover that first, but for those of you new to this expressive instrument, I'll cover some of the basics in this video as well.

Love a mid-week Sanjay video! I can remember the days of your old studio with the seabord, doesnt seem that long ago but wow! There have been so many great developments!

I just got a first gen one and what I love is that the gen 2 has only very small changes showing how much they got right on the first one

@reneeschke Жыл бұрын

For all interested in this thing: Yes, it's great, but does not replace a "normal keybed" at all. While frets are great for finding the notes better, the concept of "Strike" requires you to lift your fingers and actually strike down. Resting on a key and "just pressing" is not really easy to control. Since there is virtually no distance your finger can travel, its more or less impossible to generate "strike power"- while this is not that much of an issue when playing melodies and lead stuff, chords get tricky. Especially the pinkie has to work real hard go get initial high strike values.

@ombilicdes Жыл бұрын

It's easy to adjust the Strike (and Press) sensitivity in Roli Dashboard. If you don't want Press to be expressive you can just lower its range or set it to constant.

Does it have good velocity sensitivity?

So the question really is what is the best tecnol;ogy to beneifit the most from the seaboard now in 2022, I am thinking about buying a new laptop should it be Microsoft or Apple and will there be a new app for the ipad... I Like to take my roli with me when I am out.. ie in the coundtry or on the beach... THe ipad and Noise was good for that. - Help advise please.. Thankyou and the viseo was great.

Yes! I have to set up lighting to be able to see the natural keys. In low light the contours of the natural keys are hard to see and I have noticed that I miss the c&d and the e&f keys because the space between white stripes on the adjacent keys are wider apart. I wonder if it would be safe to paint the frets so they would be more visible.

I’ve been ill for months so only just got round to connecting it and playing it. The left hand side lights up and looks like it works, but when I press every individual key there’s no sound. The only software that connecting it let me use was roli connect, not the others for some reason. But my question to you is, is there something I’ve not done, or could it be broken? I really hope it’s not broken. It cost me £860
