Designed with wandering musicians and ambitious beginners in mind, the Roland GO:KEYS 5 combines a clean-and-intuitive control lay-out with the powerful ZEN-Core engine - the same sound engine that you can find under the hood of the Japanese brand's high-end synths and stage pianos. The Roland GO:KEYS 5 As minimalistic as it may look in terms of physical controls, the Roland GO:KEYS 3 is nothing short of fully loaded when it comes to sounds and rhythms. For a start, you're looking at more than 1,100 sounds plus 74 drum kits and over 200 rhythms. What's more, this tight little keyboard can be upgraded with Z-Style Packs, Wave Expansions and Sound Packs from the Roland Cloud, which means it's fully future-proof. In addition, you also get an AUX so you can hook up an external playback device, and a microphone jack input that's backed up with various vocals effects, including harmony. Other Highlights As befits a modern bit of kit, the GO:KEYS 5 features Bluetooth, a built-in USB audio-interface and a USB-MIDI interface, supports WAV/MP3 playback from USB sticks, and has been crammed with a mass of effects and rhythms. Since it weighs less than five kilos, has built-in speakers and can run on eight AA batteries, it's a great choice for roaming musicians as well as for beginners who want to get off to a good start.
