More products from Roland today as part of their September gearfest - although we havent seen the usual bells and whistles on Rolandconnect.com so far. This time its the HS-5 Session Mixer. Like a cross between a Millenium Falcon and a Handsonic, it caters for up to five inputs, or actually 10 really as they can be mono, stereo or Mic input.
Each input offers COSM modelling, so you can process the heck out of yourself on the way in AND record the mix to a USB stick or multitrack via USB to the computer. Additionally, you can store your setups onto USB drive to drop in and recall later - we're guessing that Roland hope that these will be part of rehearsal studio setups all over the place.
While not entirely original, I'm thinking Line 6 Stagescape and Jamhub may have influenced its design. There's still plenty to smile about - could be just the thing for the small setup - I wonder if its possible to drive a stereo mix from it as well as monitors...
We dont have an official word on price, though RedDogMusic.co.uk have it listed for £479 inc VAT, so we'd guess somewhere around the $500 mark.
