Jordan Rudess drops by Guitar Center to show us the Roli Seaboard RISE.
The acclaimed Seaboard RISE is now available as a 49-keywave controller with a four-octave playing surface. The Seaboard RISE 49 retains all the features of the breakthrough original version. A revolutionary MIDI controller that is exceptionally intuitive and easy to use, the Seaboard RISE from ROLI is the ultimate form of expression. With a variety of touch gestures, MIDI over Bluetooth, and endless possibilities, it's no wonder there's so much buzz about this unique keyboard controller.
Jordan is the ideal instrument demonstrator in my opinion - he's got the technical facility, the musical knowledge and that deep interest and skillset with many instrument technologies, plus he loves technology and isn't wedded to traditions.
It's true, he literally invests his own money in making new ipad apps to achieve new sounds that existing instruments cant. He has the skills of a classical pianist with the creativity of someone who's always looking for what's next
I'm not a fan of his style but I completely agree with everything you've said.
حي الله أهل الأردن كم سعر الجهاز لو تكرمت إذا توصلت له
I couldn't agree more with you. The way he play the keys, its amazinnng
And in the background he is developing a IOS App that does more than this and you don,t need a Roli. Just a phone or an Ipad. Its called GEO Shred
What a time to be alive!
That's what they said when 8 track tapes came out.
Robert La Macchia Elon Musk is a Rock Star!
Because you have music playing in your head that you just can't make with the technology we have now? :-)
Robert La Macchia yeah, imagine multi-billion dollar companies being able to read your mind lol
word
I've never been so attracted to
an instrument.
anthony roche get it
anthony roche I'm attracted to that guy and I'm into girls...
Ya that thing is sexy as hell, straight up sex toy! I think Im a seaboard-sexual I just want to run my fingers all up and down its parts and ridges! I wonder if you can play it with your toungue...
Notice how unrelaxed his hands go with this keyboard . dont buy.
It does require real finger accuracy and consistent pressure to maintain notes, so it isn’t relaxing to play.
It’s very different from a traditional keyboard. If you want a traditional keyboard, this isn’t for you.
If you only want to squish notes around, go for it, it does that well.
What is truly incredible about this video Is the idiosyncratic silence at a guitar center: no stairway to heaven, no banging on the drum sets, no EDM music pulsating from the pro audio section. I didn’t think it was possible.
J Y Now THAT was funny!!!
Or me screwing up an Orion solo on keyboard, LOL
Man, this thing lets you be SO damn expressive for a piano player! It's like you've got all the control of going between the notes like a stringed instrument player but still the benefit of an actual keyboard layout.
the ability to add vibrato and bends at different amounts and speed to ten notes at once...
this sax sound just is mindblowing!
this keyboard is ideal for mr sax t
WOW this is one of the most impressive instrument creations I’ve ever seen. This is next level. The thought they put into this keyboard is pure genius. The sax completely did it for me.
The music in the first part kept me thinking about Spongebob.
James Shan absolutely! Right after 0:41 I wanted the bubble sound affect, the French narrator, and then a scene starting with SpongeBob snoring.
SAMEEEE
IM DYING
rip hillenburg
Notice how unrelaxed his hands go with this keyboard . dont buy
This presentation is just bananas! Blown away! That saxophone sound is out of control
I can't be the only one replaying the video from 0:00 - 0:41 :D Such a beautiful sound and wonderful playing!
ykunce volta spongebob square pants, usually when he sleeps
Me too
chelbelle true that
The future of music is here. Imagine all the possibilities!!
This is the finally fully realized articulation of the Ensoniq VFX-SD, several decades later. For decades, people were saying that buyers didn’t really want poly after touch (which was never true), not to mention all the other cool articulations possible with this instrument. Brilliant job, Roli!!
It’s cool that they programmed in the “fingers sliding along the fret” sound when you change chords
Dear Santa, please let me win the lottery.
Lol
Rubmaster me
He could be Russian for all I care ^,^
Rubmaster Dear Santa, let me have the talent of that guy.
Send me one too if you win. I want the 49 btw.
This video shows how incredibly talented Jordan really is.
First time in history, when sax on keys sounds actually really accurate and conviceable! :O Totally good stuff with wide expression possibilities!
The tech to add those details that string and brass can do and piano traditionally lacks.
I don't know a technical thing at all that this man is talking about. That will not stop me from watching the whole thing and loving it. 😆
What an outrageously gorgeous introduction demonstration
Love this dude and the way he slides the notes
What a heavenly instrument..incomparable to anything else
I can't wait for Roli to get some decent competition with this instrument so they have to lower their prices. There is no way I can afford, for a long time, this amazing instrument.
pretty sure patent laws will block competition
For a time, yes, but not indefinitely.
Gideon White The Roli block is more affordable and can link with other blocks.
I actually saw them a while ago and plan to get some after I buy a double bass.
It's not as expensive as I thought it was going to be. It's around a thousand bucks.. or am I wrong? I mean I can't afford it but still.
I love how the guitar sounds. It sounds like a real clean guitar!
All video, I was trying to imagine him without his beard
That guitar synth is incredible.
I'm preparing my left kidney !
😋
🤣
😂🤣👌
Step 1: Buy Roli Seaboard Rise 49.
Step 2: Take piano lessons because you're a drummer.
Step 3: Realize you will never learn to play piano and have to stick to percussion.
Step 4: Hire Jordan Rudess to Play Roli Seaboard RISE 49 for you.
I'm a piano player who bought drums I'll never learn to play, trade? Lol
You can do it in time man, but it would probably take 5 years. I bet after two years constant practice you would feel leaps & bounds from where you were. That said, I'm sort of interested in the other MPE devices because they're not anything like a piano so you don't have to learn piano in order to use the Roli. If you know the piano, the Roli will fit right in, but if you don't, it could be years before you get to the Roli because you'll be doing all your work on a piano or piano-based MIDI controller. So the Roli has an irritating barrier to entry. If I got the Linnstrument instead, I don't have to go first learn something else in order to make use of the Linnstrument...you just dig in, like eating a head of cabbage.
You say that, but my old drummer got amazing at keyboard after a year or two
@Andrei James Weird. I can play guitar and I usually start with it for composition and then work on penciling it into a DAW.
@Andrei James I tried that as well, but I can figure out sounds from chords and so on more easily on the guitar. The keyboard and DAW are very slow. Plus, I'm usually using the guitar for pure enjoyment when the epic bangers start showing up in the playing...which then I start to suss out the details for the DAW and other parts. The whole thing is an art form and everyone has a different approach.
One of my absolute dream instruments! Since also growing up with jazz along with Indian classical music, the amount of microtonal expressions i can get out of this, having some playing experience with piano, i can't wait for this. Right now i have some 30 key midi controller, FP-10 as my main digital piano, Arturia MicroFreak & Korg Monologue. Having something like this in my array of gears will be even better.
I equally love Haken Continuum Fingerboard as well. So idk which one i'd rather end up with. Now the new Expressive E Osmose too seems to have just as much microtonal capabilities. The choices are just amazing to choose from.
Thank you for this demonstration, Master Xehanort.
headcanon: nort has been classically trained and plays baroque music in his free time
LLLLMMMAAAAOOOOOO

The value of his talent is so much greater than that of his instrument. #Salute
A while ago, Gisele asked "How does it handle ragtime and boogie? Large block chords?" I thought I'd repeat my late reply as food for thought. I said...
"It" (i.e. the actual hardware) handles it as well as any other digital keyboard in the sense that it generates MIDI data for whatever keys you press PLUS other data to describe how every INDIVIDUAL key is being modified by pitch bends, after touch, etc. Unless you're using Equator, the included Roli software, your synth software may not handle the modifier data well since the original MIDI protocol--and most if not all 3rd party software written to support it--was designed to handle modifier data as a global effect, not for individual keys. (Side note: many of the great demo's online use third party software so don't assume you'll have the same sounds with Equator!)
For instance, Kontakt (pardon me if I'm not up on the most recent version) would traditionally be set up to have one instance of a software synth for a keyboard with a typical pitch bend control and the synth would apply any pitch bend data to every note pressed. That's not what most people want with a seaboard. So, with Kontakt, you have to create as many instances of the software synth as the number of keys you plan to press at a time. Once configured, the data for, say, three keys being pressed is split up and sent to the first three instances of the synth, one key per instance. So, each synth instance handles the modifier data (e.g. pitch bend) for only one key. The setup can be painful if you don't like that sort of thing; however, it does work and you can save the setups as presets.
Lastly, when I first played my seaboard, I immediately realized that the beautiful surface design, which enables all the expressiveness, is a double edged sword. For instance, the centers of the keys are spaced in a standard manner but the flat tops of the keys are narrower because space is taken up by the valleys in between them. Thus, your fingers are aiming at a narrower target when you play anything that involves large jumps like a stride bass. It's very easy to land in a valley or unintentionally trigger a key modifier like pitch bend as a finger rolls off the corner of a key. Similarly, if you were really stretching you fingers to reach large block chords, you could easily unintentionally cause pitch bends or after touch effects. You can turn such effects off but then you're defeating the purpose of the seaboard and you will be left with a standard keyboard that has narrow key tops!
R Brown : I would have responded to Gisele that maybe she doesn’t want to use a spatula to handle soup, or use a car to swat a fly.
I’m sure that this will be popping up in dream theater music soon! (Or if it doesn’t I’m glad Jordan can absolutely rock it!)
Jordan is the perfect man to showcase this awesome baby
So freaking awesome. Saving up for one forsure. It’s cool because you can really feel what your playing
WoW! - I was a guitar player with interest in Synths- and thought to listen to this for a minute or two...I played it TWICE!
I feel like you could play the shit out of some Blade Runner-styled music with this thing!
Clint Thompson You’re so right man. Deeper pad preset on the Noise app.
Fuck yeah‼️🤘🏽
@@pawnjp7946 I don't see that on my app, but Autumn Valley Pad brings up a sweet BR vibe.
I see you're a man of culture. Vangelis is king
The keys player of the band I'm in bought a Seaboard Block. He fell in love with it after five minutes.
I love this. I'd buy one for myself but I know it would take me decades of hard work to wring beautiful sounds out of it like Jordan and I don't have decades.
5:30 "I can do it while I'm looking at you." -- Completely sums up his skills.
The man could sight-read "UN Owen Was Her" while ordering a pizza on his phone.
The tones slide in different ways, so cool!
Truly beautiful. Worth every penny
Very impressive
I wanna know how the hell they made it use Bluetooth with no discernible latency! Amazing
im sure there is a bit of latency but not to the point of notice.
Discernable means what you said btw, sorry i sounded rude, just wanted to make it clear what he said
MIDI uses less bandwidth (fewer bytes) than audio for starters, and Bluetooth "LE" is supposed to be lower latency than original Bluetooth (to get that first byte in a message delivered faster, I guess)
Magic
I’m guessing because it’s transmitting midi over Bluetooth, not audio. A lot less data.
What I'm seeing now is the evolution of music itself. I can only imagine what music in the future would be like.
I am at a loss for words, Thank you!
Wonderfully tropical intro.
Just saw the ad for this thing. I need to see more people rocking this instrument.
Ever since I got my ROLI Seaboard Rise 49, gave me the opportunity to expand my creativity with my music. 🎶
We'd love to hear some famous rock guitar solos from that wonder ;)
You know there are some on youtube already, right? E.g. - Hendrix stuff redone on a seaboard.
3:29...."There's all this extra To-ooonee that happens.". Love how Jordan is in a small moment of ecstasy on the word 'tone'. LOL
The seaboard changed my life.
What on god's earth was that beautiful song at the beginning?
3 years later and I'm still replaying 0:00 - 0:42
2020 set
Sounds amazing! I just impulse-bought one, can't wait to start playing :D
Edit: I returned it. I thought it would be a lot like a traditional keyboard. But it was like playing a completely new instrument, which I don't have time/energy to learn unfortunately :/ (just a warning to any piano players considering buying it)
Lovely version of 'This Loneliness' to start off with. It sounds beautiful
This guy is just the god of keyboards. Not more - not less! Awesome! And ROLI seems to be made for this god! ^^
This really makes me wish I knew how to play the piano. So rad.
Just get yourself a keyboard and start playing man, that's what I did. Honestly, if you play an instrument, you'll feel the progress on the piano really quickly and get the basics down fast.
never too late to start! if you’d had started when u left this comment you’d be on ur well way to mastery!!
Now that’s a freakin COOL instrument!
9:14 is when every electronic music producer did a little poop of excitement
Vin diesel when he’s not shooting F&F:
Thanks a lot for that concise demonstration of the Roli Seaboard.
If it's so great, why did they stop making it?
Very cool. Sounds amazing. Can you use this to bend the pitch of major thirds to get just intonation on a keyboard?
come on jordan. which preset did you use at the beginning of this video
It will be nice to listen the "Blue Bayou" by Linda Rondstadt pedal steel guitar solo, played on this seaboard. It sounds very well.
his beard looks like it's glued on
It is, indeed.
Lol
Amazing Keyboard, Teacher and Person! Thank You So Much!🎼🎹
Got my Seaboard today - have to watch your video .. again .. and again .. a few times - Thank you :-)
Sold.💯
Holy heck, that sax sounded .. astonishing.
Roli is just killing it
Such a great player ...
6:10 I imagine Infected Mushroom playing this keyboard
I predict a bunch of really chillax music coming out
Oh I can't imagine the edm
I might be getting mine today!!!! If I get it I am naming it Fury.
This should be kind of video that they show on facebook.
I’m just a guitar player and keyboard dabbler...but.... wow ! This is nice ! 😀
I love Jordan Rudess keys play, including when he plays fast (and he almost always play fast haha)... So that's why I often slowed down the video of him playing because sometime I really love more when he plays slower LOL yeah maybe it's just me.
Awesome Design!
MIDI Controllers(And other messages) can be sent to individual MIDI channel according to the Starting Keys.
"Every note you can play, can be completely independant" - Too bad there are, and have been, at most, a handful of humans alive, or who have ever lived, with that level of dexterity.
Jordan is some kind of magic person.
7:00 so the roli seabord is very expensive
He said expressive
This guy makes the hardest of things look so easy
Just bought one for myself. I'm super excited to hook it up to Omni, Kontakt, Reaktor, Serum, Diva, and Kaivo... and to make my own multitimbral chains and layers.
How is it?
Worth it?
was it worth it!!!??
please update haha
Jordan Rudess could even get music out of a bucket of sand and a dried up apple, he's that talented!
It's what's been missing. I love this concept!!!!
what guitar preset was he using in the first 40 seconds?
Great!!
Each Finger(Touch) Starts one instance of channel, and the movement sends the parameter(Wheel/Mod/Aftertouch?) value at the corresponding channel to the host.
Great demo!
It is a killer keyboard , Miss Neon Vines Does an amazing job with it
Have you ever tried playing a keyboard on an ipad? I hink the Seaboard keyboard is similar and goong to be tough to be able to play it. The physical keys we have been using where the keys actually go down are what works best for most of us ...
Maria Soleada this is not a keyboard. This is a seaboard. Jordan made it clear on some other video. This is an instrument with a keyboard form factor so that it will feel familiar.
Excellent review and presentation, thanks!
What a great creation...Dynamics
i always wanted to make such a tool. im glad someone did
Finally a keyboard that makes sounds that are real
Legendary keyboardist of dream theater explains the newest technology keyboard which is a new era for musicians. One of the uniquest video on youtube for me.
In all of the videos of this I see there seems to be a significant delay between key press and sound. Am I imagining it? Isn't that quite a downside?
I went to a Guitar Center in the hopes to see and touch one of these Roli keyboards. Unfortunately, they didnt have any on display but did have a single Roli Rise 49 in stock. I had my wallet in hand ready to buy and I asked to touch the keyboard before buying because $1200 is a lot to spend without even knowing what the keys felt like. They wouldnt do it! They wouldnt open the box to let me feel the keyboard surface before buying! I eventually ended up buying off Amazon just out of spite.
Random Person wow that’s pretty anti sales sounding to me. What’s this world coming to?
Curious why this isn't Jordan's go to instrument or at least some songs live. Seems a vector stick and a strip controller + traditional keyboard is more Jordan's preference for live performance?
So now I have no idea what keyboard I want, I was going to go for the king cord, but now this instrument just seems something I have to totally relearn
Buying this ASAP, BEST INVESTMENT
