Roland Introduces New Product: The AIRA Compact Creative Sampler
What is the AIRA Compact Creative Sampler?
It's renowned Roland sampling technology packed into a pocket-sized gadget. Equipped with a built-in microphone, intuitive controls and USB-C connectivity, the AIRA offers exceptional sampling and performance capabilities. It is similar to many of their previous gadgets, but this one is small enough to take anywhere. Plus, the technology has evolved.
What can you do with it?
The short answer is: a lot. Thanks to the internal microphone, this recorder can record new samples right away. You can then split the samples into different segments, edit them separately and then put them back together again. This allows you to create the most detailed and advanced sounds. There are also extensive sound parameters such as detuning, head position, head speed, spread, grain and much more. You can also add more instruments to expand your palette, or connect to MIDI devices, computers and music apps to expand your existing setup.
Combine with other devices
The P-6 SampleTool software for both Apple and Windows lets you connect endlessly edited sounds to computers. This applies to both internal sounds and sounds you import and create yourself. MIDI and sync I/O let you connect the recorder to audio. In addition, there is Roland's own AIRA Link, which is also known for previous Roland devices. The class-compliant USB-C audio/MIDI interface allows you to plug-and-play audio streaming with computers, phones and tablets.
This comprehensive and versatile device makes mixing, creating and recording so much easier. It has a battery inside, so you can literally take it out of your pocket and use it anywhere. Measuring just 3.7 x 10.6 x 18.8 centimetres, you can literally hold Roland's magical technology in your hand!
