Roland officially announce details for the five individual System-500 modules that they previewed at Musikmesse earlier this year. Part of the AIRA Modular series, these all-new, fully-analogue modules are based on two of the most revered electronic instruments of all time, the System-700 and System-100m. Designed exclusively for Eurorack, the System-500 512 VCO, 521 Dual VCF, 530 Dual VCA, 540 2ENV-LFO and 572 Phase Shifter/Delay/LFO are designed to deliver classic Roland sound with all the advantages and reliability of a modern instrument.
Roland have also introduced the SYR-E84 Eurorack case, a travel case and high-current power supply for modular synths and effects. The SYR-E84 fits the System-500 series, System-1m, Bitrazer, Demora, and other products in the AIRA Modular series, as well as standard Eurorack modules from other manufacturers.
The SYR-E84 is a sleek-looking 84HP wide case made from black aluminium with wooden sides. it provides 2000mA of current, and can be used in flat, angled or vertical orientations. It’s also designed so two cases can be joined together for forming larger systems.
