Craft Your Next Hit

Once you have got a chord progression in mind, bring it together with the Roland J-6 chord sequencer. There are 64 patterns with up to 64 steps each, and you can quickly enter chords, style variations, single notes, and tempo changes in each step to mold your masterpieces.

Tweak and Tweeze

After you have captured a pattern on the Roland J-6, hit play and inject even more color with tactile controls. Select different synthesizer presets, tweak the filter and envelope in real-time, and complete the picture with customizable reverb and delay effects.
