First Look at Roland’s New GALAXIAS Instrument

Making it’s way from a galaxy far, far away…GALAXIAS! Roland’s new super-instrument, or rather “the mothership” of Roland instruments has landed. With GALAXIAS, Roland is bringing 50 years of iconic drum machines and synths all together in one instrument. This dynamic instrument is not just a static collection of sounds; it is an ever-expanding platform that continues to grow with new sounds, features, and other exciting updates. With the ability to blend, layer, and sequence up to four instruments at once, the possibilities for sonic exploration are virtually endless. Immerse yourself in a world of boundless inspiration with access to a vast library of over 20,000 captivating sounds, accompanied by an array of evocative Scenes to enhance your creative journey. Effortlessly search through this expansive sound bank using intuitive filters such as instrument type, sound pack, keywords, and more. We could go on & on about all the amazing features, but why not show you them instead?

We managed to get our hands on GALAXIAS for this first look video with Aftermath Records Engineer and Point Blank expert instructor, Adal Jamil, who teaches Music Production and Audio Engineering here at Point Blank L.A. Peep the video below.

Adal showcases the iconic history of Roland and how GALAXIAS acts as culmination and celebration of that history. Using the layer features and the scenes, Adal creates a medley project with three styles; pop, house, and hip hop. Starting with a synth pop track inspired by The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights,” then onto another track taking inspiration from Beyonce’s “Summer Renaissance,” and finally finishing with a freestyle trap inspired hip-hop beat.
