I have had mine for about four years and gig with it. It is the only keyboard that I would purchase again if it stopped working or was stolen. It weighs 12 lbs and it has been bullet proof...very nice demo...
I own a VK7 now currently i just bought reconditioned for $680 and i already have a Hammond XK1 oh yes my B3 setup dual neo vents and hammond Leslie G pedals per organ. Roland VK upper manual and my Hammond XK1 as my lower manual. No need for a Nord to my ears sounds too digital. The VK7 and XK1 make the right organ duo
Hiya. Great demo. I am really interested in the Synth Brass bit and the Jump chords. Have you adjusted it in any way from the pre-set? I want it as a second board to the Roland FA06, It looks very easy to operate and the brass sound sounds pretty cool.
Hello, my friend , Yes, regarding the brass synth I manually worked on the parameters (Tone, compressor, delay). However, I don't remember exactly to what extent I changed the parameters Thanks for watching, Have a Great day!
Hi Tim , the setting about piano sound ? Write me to kolosseum70@yahoo.it and i send you my file .UPG to load in your VR09 , it's my personal set up of this piano and many others various sounds , ok ?
Thanks for playing some recognizeable tracks, most demonstrations are just rubbish jamming which give no idea of what the keyboard can do when played straight. Has made up my mind to buy one as my style is much like yours
+yestermusic Thank you for having enjoyed the demo video, I am not in the professional running as there are many in Yuotube, but I try to give an idea of what can 'make the instrument in general, Roland VR09 has good sounds, and' easy to use, and 'useful for many types of music to be played live.

Wonderful demo. Strings are somehow better now.. ;) Have you ever tried the I-Pad-app - especially for the VR-09? It blasts your synth to a *much higher* level 😃

@@MrPianorgan .Thank you for your answer. Could you give me the chords of your right hand and how to find the sound Pad and Flute, I can’t find them on my VR 09 thank you in advance
@@MrPianorgan thanks for the reply. Excellent. I'm trying to decide between this and the Vox Continental. The Roland is getting pretty old now, I thought maybe the sounds were getting a bit dated. I want something with good organ sounds and drawbars.
@@officialWWM About Vox Continental , i Don't know how does It work Roland is very funny to use , good organs and farfisa/Vox sounds , portable and light !
Hi, I like this demo and the playing and sounds are great. I've also seen demos of how to adjust sounds. I wonder if you can say how the VR-09 sounds compare to a JV-1080. I play at home for fun mainly and a bit of recording. Are these sounds much superior to JV-1080 sounds? Thanks and keep making good videos. :)
Also I have a JV1080, (Rack expander), The VR09 has some sound from the JV, but also has the best sound in more ', for example, sounds from Jupiter as Pad very powerful. The VR09 is very funny to use. Hello my friend, thanks for watching and have a good day !!!
Hello Luca, thanks for your reply. You have confirmed what I thought. The VR-09 has some better sounds and will be easier to select those sounds. The JV has so many and need to adjust some parameters for them to sounds good. I'll save up for a VR-09. They are a bit expensive here in New Zealand. Thanks again and have a good day, too !!!
It costs about 1100 euros, $1699NZ. I see they are cheaper in UK or Europe but may have to pay import duty. With a small population here, most things are more expensive than other places. Not so many musicians so less chance of a good second hand one coming up for sale. I was just chatting to my friend about live music which has reduced a lot here since 2008 and less bands playing and even less venues. It's a pity because music can make people happy. How about where you live?
With respect for Roland products, but € 1,100 are much money to spend for the VR09, here in Italy VR09 price 'about 600 €. I understand, and it 'a shame that people who like the music and want to have fun playing live has little way to do this! But I still hope that you can buy at a fair price.
+7985dp Thanks Man, My opinion about the VR 09 ? The Vr09 is a good "professional toy", very versatile, fun to play and very easy to use! This keyboard is fine if you use it in Live to play various types of music,you can control effects in real time ... can create a personal sound .... and much more .... but i think is not very professional if you need a special performances ..... it all depend from the type of music that you do .... the VR09 has limits , but for quality 'and price, I think is a really good product , I use VR09 With Bands playing some Blues,Rock,Pop Reggae and I'm very satisfy how it Work !!!
+7985dp Ok! I also use with mp3 backing tracks for practice and you can 'separately adjust the volumes of the sounds on the front panel controls in real time
@@MrPianorgan I am interested in purchasing it now since the price is lower.... question: what do you mean it's "not professional" for special performances?
Fantastic playing. I have this keyboard and I only wish I could make it sound half as good as you do. Well done!!
I have had mine for about four years and gig with it. It is the only keyboard that I would purchase again if it stopped working or was stolen. It weighs 12 lbs and it has been bullet proof...very nice demo...
I still use it in live as a second keyboard, it is very comfortable, and light 🙂
I've just replaced all of my MIDI rack modules with the VR-09, It's awesome. No Leslie rotation on 'Green Onions' though. Set to brake.....lol
Yes Carl , you're right about using "brake" on Leslie, but I still had not found out how it was done on the VR09 !!!
@@MrPianorgan It's in the latest software and can only be in the rotary menu.
good keyboard,and good work too..a bit tip ..jump is Fa - Sol chords at last of riff ;-)

I did not know the pitch bender can control leslie. Thx.
Yes! I instinctively go to the pitch bender from years of playing organ on my Kronos! I need to set mine to do this - at least on some patches.

The grand piano sounds not so "grand" when you do it in mono. It's pretty mono incompatible and turns into a cheap upright piano.
