help Roland A-800PRO FAQ
How many keys does the Roland A-800PRO have?
The Roland A-800PRO has 61 velocity-sensitive keys, not 89. The keyboard also supports channel aftertouch for compatible instruments and software.
Can the A-800PRO control hardware synthesizers without a computer?
It has traditional MIDI connections as well as USB, so it can send MIDI data to compatible hardware. The controller still needs suitable power, and it produces no sound by itself because it has no internal synthesizer engine.
Does the Roland A-800PRO work with modern DAWs?
It sends standard MIDI messages and can control instruments in software such as Ableton Live, Logic Pro, Cubase, and other DAWs. Advanced transport or automatic parameter mapping may require manual setup because bundled control software and presets were designed for older operating-system generations.
What performance controls are built into the A-800PRO?
It includes pads, knobs, sliders, transport controls, Roland's combined pitch and modulation lever, and pedal inputs. These controls can be assigned to MIDI parameters for software instruments or external sound modules.
