Realtime Song Orchestration and Vocal
Standard MIDI Files are great but static, right? Wrong. The Roland DisCover 5 Realtime Orchestrator can turn
them into interactive songs that do exactly what you want, without any editing at all on an external sequencer or
software program. At the touch of an icon, you can change the orchestration of songs you buy on floppy disk or
download from the Internet, or transpose a song to meet your singing range. Instantly and automatically. Also with one
of the most “musical”, realistic and versatile harmonizer effects available, the DisCover 5 supplies harmony
lines for your singing, and turns you into a singing sensation using four powerful modes. Add
a sound engine with some of Roland’s finest sounds and the DisCover 5
provides you with everything you need. Instantly, automatically,
and professionally.
