    eaboard 2 is designed to be the ultimate expressive instrument, with a unique silicone surface that combines the tactility and responsiveness of an acoustic instrument with the limitless sonic possibilities of a digital one. It comes complete with ROLI’s flagship soft synth, Equator2, so you can start exploring right away.

     

    Expand your sonic horizons:

    Expression comes naturally with Seaboard 2: The unique silicone surface combines the responsive, tactile feel of an acoustic instrument with the endless sonic possibilities of digital ones.

     

    Authentic articulations for any instrument:

    Shape each individual note and add everything from vibrato to subtle pitch bends and wild leaps with intuitive gestures. You can use the ribbons at the top and bottom of the playing surface for especially seamless slides.

     

    MPE enabled:

    Playing Seaboard 2 is like having pitch and mod wheels under every finger at once. ROLI’s 5D Touch offers a natural-feeling way to play polyphonic parts that wouldn’t be possible on any other instrument.

    • Strike: The initial velocity of a note
    • Press: The pressure you apply while playing
    • Slide: A movement from the front to the back of a key
    • Glide: Side-to-side movement around and between notes
    • Lift: How fast you lift your finger off the surface after playing a note

     

    New and improved Keywave 2 surface:

    The latest generation of Seaboard is inspired by guitar fretboards; a tactile ridge defines the center of each note and helps you stay in tune without looking down at your hands.

     

    Built to last:

    With its sleek, anodised aluminium chassis, Seaboard 2 is the most premium-feeling iteration yet, and it’s also the toughest. Add in Bluetooth connectivity and up to eight hours of battery life, and it’s ready for the road.

     

    Extra expression:

    If Five Dimensions of Touch aren’t quite enough, Seaboard 2 also features a responsive XY pad for assigning to additional parameters in your DAW, plugins, or hardware of choice.

     

    Adjust playing feel on the fly:

    Next to the XY pad, Seaboard 2 features three Touch Faders — each with backlit visual feedback — for customizing the response of the surface’s Keywaves.

     

    Equator2:

    ROLI’s flagship MPE soft synth, Equator2, combines six different sound sources with 1,400+ presets and 15 creative effects. Best of all, it’s designed specifically with Seaboard 2 in mind.

     

    ROLI Studio:

    Seaboard 2 includes hundreds of additional sounds in the form of ROLI Studio — a pair of premium MPE-enabled plug-ins, packed with hundreds of expressive melodic presets, dynamic drum kits, and powerful creative tools — and you can expand your options further with sound packs.

     

    Works with your whole setup:

    Seaboard 2 is compatible with Ableton Live, Logic Pro, Cubase, Bitwig, and all other major DAWs. With MIDI Out, it’s also capable of controlling external hardware.

     

    Compatibility:

    ROLI hardware and software is compatible with macOS and Windows.

     

    Typically, our products work seamlessly with operating systems and DAWs released within the last 6 to 8 years. However, when testing new products and software updates, we prioritise newer OS versions over older OS versions.

     

    Similarly, ROLI hardware and software is compatible with both Apple Silicon and Intel CPUs, but we prioritise testing on Apple Silicon.

     

    Always back up your work before installing any new software or updates. We strongly advise against updating your software or operating system in the middle of a critical project, to avoid any potential disruptions or compatibility issues.
