This may be the coolaste ad I've ever seen. I love the blend between dance and orchestral music. Futuristic for sure!

[arkmusic]

This is something that every musician needs. 🔥

Roli support/social manager on here doing some WORK. keep it up you guys. Love my Seaboard Rise 2 and use it almost every day.

[LunatiqueRob]

The only downside of the Blocks is you can't do glissando glide above/below the keys across the gap where two units are connected. That's the main reason I got the Seaboard Rise instead.

[Ledonn]

that looks sick! I have three questions.

1. "Advanced customization of keywave response through a firmware upgrade, offering more nuanced MPE control."
Will my existing Seaboard Block be upgraded with a firmware update?

2. Do you have any idea if FL Studio will support MPE in the future?

3. Is there still no official support for Bluetooth in Windows environments? As a Windows user, I have a few tricks up my sleeve to get Bluetooth working, but it's a shame that there's no official support.

This song Is a Banger. Anytime this ads pops up, I don't skip it 🔥

Now where's the Spotify link? 🔎

Hi Roli. Congrats to you on this launch. I am hoping you already have plans on making a 61 key Seaboard Rise. Am patiently waiting on that one since you released the 49 key Seaboard Rise 2. Don't let us down. Thank you.

[GlitchComputer]

I’m so confused…I thought this already existed

[MilkSoup]

Are you not releasing a light block drum pad, or a looper pad like the last version, those things are something i was looking forward to

[MusicalBasics]

Are there any plans to make an 88 version of the rise?

[seventfour]

im SO HAPPY to see it again. Number one thing missing is iOS support

[dgquotesstationery]

Really super.. i have seen your youtube channel just now and subscribed... really i am very happy that this is super youtube channel..

“Infinite Expression. Anywhere.”
Unless you’re in Aus, don’t ship there :(

Was super hyped for this release, stayed up for the release and was really disappointed at 3am local time that it’s not gonna ship to Australia.
Really cool product, hopefully we’ll see it here someday

[BharathKumarIyer]

I've been an excited supporter of Roli ever since the first Rise. But my Seaboard Block is the one that travels with me on tour. I'd love to see some of these newer features made available to the older seaboard block? Especially the patch change shortcut and hardware MIDI out via the USB Port? Any firmware upgrade scheduled for long time customers?

[MrPhatboyg]

It’s impossible to beat the original ad that was on another level 😎😎😎

[HIKAROTH]

Hello Roli can I connect the sea bord bloc to a seaboard M ?

[JoelSpencer-evio]

Looks like it’s sold out! Any way we can still get in on the Black Friday sale price?

[TheAnthodev]

Hello, is it possible to combine a v1 Seaboard BLOCK with this new version please? Thanks :)

[BajaRising]

Can you make a version with a longer keyboard for sure? Definitely need both versions, one short as this one, and a full-length version because yes there’s no way you can slide between blocks. But Amazong products, hope can get one soon

[thepianistq]

Your real problem is not teaming with plugins makers like swam nor releasing premapped parameters for many plugins. Many musicians are not very good with midi mapping and all sorts of programming therefore won't risk buying roli.
Another issue is that you have removed the pitchbend. I know the whole board can bends but still having the option for a specific playing style is essential. Maybe add the option to use the x/y pad for pitchbend + modwheel with the possibility to hold the y values when released?
We have so many midi tools these days but linking any to real usage is tricky.
You guys need to release something for people who likes to use normal keyboards with extra flexibility or even release a roli like touch strip that can be attached to any existing keyboard.

I really loved my rise, blocks and lumi but I know you guys can do much more!
