Ever evolving, expanding, and reinventing itself, the synthesizer is an instrument with no borders. For many musicians, it

is the ultimate dream machine — something that offers fresh challenges, and is open to the future. Historically, Roland has

been at the forefront of synthesizer evolution, ceaselessly innovating, and refining its sound-making technology. Since

developing the SH-1000, the first synthesizer produced in Japan, Roland has created a long and beloved series of cutting-edge

instruments. Now, along with the V-Synth GT, the latest in a long line of “pure” synthesizers, comes the Roland Fantom-G

workstation family, an amazing new series of instruments that opens uncharted dimensions of expression and creativity.

A New World of Power and Expression

Sounds That Have Never Been Heard Before

Roland's V-Synth GT Represents a

Significant Stride Forward

Two V-Synths in One, and Beyond!

Multi-Core Processing For Powerhouse

Performance

The sound engine of the V-Synth GT has been completely revamped

with powerful multi-core technology for amazing depth and

creativity. Imagine having the creative power of two combined

V-Synth units, with multilayered VariPhrase and COSM ® processing

along with Vocal Designer ® and other features! In addition to its

raw synthesis power, the V-Synth GT also features dual multi-effects

processors, independently optimized control of both upper and

lower tones. Freely shape your effects for an even greater diversity

of sounds and textures.

So powerful, so unique — Roland's V-Synth GT is unlike any synthesizer that has come before it. This is not

only the birth of a new synthesizer, it's the arrival of a bold new form of sonic expression unknown to

musicians until now. Elastic Audio Synthesis has already captivated artists the world over. Now the V-Synth

GT's multi-core engine supercharges your expressive power, and enables sounds to go even deeper.

The power of AP-Synthesis and other innovative synthesizer technologies will give you the tools to break

through into new realms of creativity. Delve in and explore unknown dimensions with the V-Synth GT!

Through a fusion of Elastic Audio Synthesis, VariPhrase, COSM ® , and

other pioneering technologies, Roland's award-winning V-Synth

brought new potential to the synthesizer. All over the world, on

stage and in studios, top artists have been empowered to create

dramatically new sounds. Today, with the V-Synth GT, Roland has

infused the phenomenal Elastic Audio Synthesis engine with even

more advanced technologies, enabling musicians to stretch beyond

previous limitations in sound design and expression. With the

V-Synth GT, Roland once again delivers a synthesizer that takes

musicians to new, unexplored dimensions.

World's First! Behavior Modeling of Musical-Instrument

Articulation — Revolutionary AP-Synthesis Technology

for Microsoft ® Windows Vista ® /

Windows ® XP

for Mac OS X

AP (Articulative Phrase) Synthesis is a revolutionary technology that, for the first time, enables a

synthesizer to have the kind of organic nuance and expression of an acoustic musical instrument.

Based on modeling of the responsive changes that occur when musicians play actual instruments,

Roland's AP-Synthesis is a great advance over simple PCM sound sources and physical modeling.

With integrated behavior modeling and synthesizer processing, the V-Synth GT lets you freely

manipulate various waveforms from acoustic instruments to synth sounds. This technology has

fundamentally revolutionized the synthesizer.

Sound Shaper II Facilitates Speedy

Creation of Original Sounds

Serious sound designers will love the complexity and editing depth

of the V-Synth GT, but there are many

instances where musicians need fresh

sounds fast — and that's the beauty of

Sound Shaper II. Based on the original

Sound Shaper, this enhanced mode lets

you choose a patch, and it brings the

most relevant parameters directly to the

surface. By simply turning knobs or using

the onscreen touch buttons, Sound

Shaper lets you create pro-quality sounds

in seconds!

AP-Synthesis Models the

“Performance” of Acoustic

Solo Instruments

AP-Synthesis is a groundbreaking technology that models the

behavior of four instruments (sax, flute, erhu, and violin), recreating the

expressive response characteristics of actual playing techniques.

Directly from the keyboard, the V-Synth GT lets you effortlessly

produce authentic trills, glissandos, vibrato, crescendos, and other

expressive nuances. The essence of AP-Synthesis is its ability to be used

with the synthesizer sound source, such as an “analog lead synth” that

provides the expressiveness of violin playing. AP-Synthesis brings

organic, emotional expression to synthesis. Moreover, in the V-Synth

GT, these sounds undergo processing in the COSM ® section as well as

VariPhrase layering and other effects. Going beyond the mere

reproduction of the sounds found in existing instruments, a whole

new world of sound creation has been opened.

*AP-Synthesis can be used with either upper or lower tones.

High-Quality Color Touch-Panel LCD

User Interface Further Refined

Compared to its predecessor, the V-Synth GT offers greatly

enhanced USB functions. For starters, USB 2.0 is now supported,

which allows significantly faster transmission speed. In addition,

two USB ports are now provided: one port for USB-memory

devices (which can be plugged in directly for data storage and

retrieval) and another port that enables audio/MIDI streaming and

file transfer for direct connection to computer-based DAW

applications.

The V-Synth GT's high-resolution TFT—LCD color touch panel uses

vivid graphics to display large amounts of information in a friendly

format. The display offers a wide viewing angle, and provides

greatly enhanced readability compared to its predecessors. Since

the display is touch sensitive, editing is as simple as pointing to

and touching the onscreen menu items and icons. In addition,

there are eight control knobs below the

LCD touch panel with companion

onscreen monitoring. In addition, jog

dials and cursor control buttons are

logically integrated, and the D-Beam

and other real-time controllers are

grouped in the same area. Tasks are

quick and easy since the controls are

concentrated in one area, which

improves speed and convenience dur ing

real-time performances.

V-LINK Support for

Images and Sound

■

Color touch panel and logically

positioned knobs offer fast,

friendly control.

The V-Synth GT fully supports Roland's pioneering V-LINK protocol,

which allows real-time manipulation of music and images. Using

the V-Synth GT's expressive controllers, you

can connect compatible Roland/EDIROL

video devices and add a new level of visual

expression and excitement to your

performances.

Elastic Audio Synthesis: Amazing Expression

and Creative Control

Vocal Designer Built-In

Roland has integrated its leading technologies in the V-Synth GT. One of the

key components is VariPhrase, which let you control the elements of sound in

flexible, creative ways. As well as providing analog-like control over the PCM

oscillator, it controls SUPER SAW, feedback, and other high-quality analog

modeling oscillators that generate 16 very different types of waveforms.

The configuration also comprises a COSM ® processor that drives a powerful

modulator, side-band filter, resonator, and

effect types for a total of 16.

Through the mic and line input jacks, external

waveforms can also be processed by the

V-Synth GT's engine. All this functionality is

accessible via a section structure that allows

instant selection, layering, and editing.

■

VariPhrase & COSM

Roland's acclaimed Vocal Designer ® has also been

included as one of the core components of the

V-Synth GT. With the press of a key, live vocals from a

mic can be altered as they are input. Imagine a single

voice transforming into a large-scale choir, for example,

or a backing chorus for a pop tune. You can also use an

audio phrase or other sampled waveform as a carrier for

a vocoder sound. Whatever the application, Vocal

Designer provides unrestricted control and modeling of

the human voice.

But that's only where the creative possibilities begin.

It's now possible to combine Vocal Designer with

VariPhrase functions, analog

modeling, and AP-Synthesis.

Create complex multi-core

sounds that can be

manipulated organically in

ways unlike anything ever

heard from a synthesizer.

*Vocal Designer can be used with

either upper or lower tones.
