Once a musical instrument generates sound vibrations, it reaches the human ear through various mediating objects, each of which signiﬁcantly affects the sound. The material and conﬁguration of

the instrument, the electric/magnetic amplifying system, the air and the reverberation of the room all affect the ﬁnal sound. Sound modeling, the latest DSP technology, “virtually” reconstructs these

objects. Roland’s breakthrough Composite Object Sound Modeling (COSM) uses the advantages of multiple modeling methods and succeeds in accurately emulating existing sounds, as well as

producing sounds that have never before been created.

Using V-LINK, musicians can “play” video from their electronic instrument — or even control a live video camera — when used with Roland’s video products. With V-LINK, musicians have a powerful

interface for realtime audio and video integration.

VG-99/VB-99 and FC-300, the perfect

combination for live performance.
