FR-7 V-Accordion
Roland is pleased to introduce another milestone in digital musical instrument history —the V-Accordion. Models FR-7 and FR-5 are the first instruments of their type to successfully integrate powerful digital technology such as new Physical Behavior Modeling (PBM) into a traditional accordion design, offering performance features and authentic sounds that appeal to a wide range of musical styles.

It has an inbuilt dynamic control in the bellow. Thus, volume variations respond as it would with a normal accordion. |

Not necessary, for the dynamic bellow volume control is widely known. |
