Roland HS-5 Session Mixer estudio móvil y mezclador digital

General

The Roland HS-5 Session Mixer is a fully digital mixer that enables five musicians to rehearse in silence, wearing headphones. Each musician can make his or her own monitor mix and apply effects. The HS-5 offers various COSM effects, including amp modelling for guitar and bass guitar, and each channel has its own reverb control. With the Session Mixer, it's possible to record your music without a computer - it records your two-track songs directly to a USB stick. If you do use a computer, the Roland HS-5 can serve as an audio interface for your DAW, enabling you to make multi-track recordings.

A Separate Monitor Mix for Every Band Member

Using the control panel of the HS-5, each member of your band can select an input signal type, choosing between a line input - for keys, (electronic) drums, guitar or bass - or a microphone input. Subsequently, each band member can mix the incoming signals and listen to the result via a 3.5mm or 6.35mm headphone output. A master mix is also easily created. Simply press the main mix button and use the designated knobs to determine the level of each input. The Session Mixer transmits this master mix to the master output or records it to a USB stick.

Amp Modelling and Effects

Channels A through D of the HS-5 allow you to use amp modelling. For guitar there are ten amplifier simulations to choose from, and five models are available for bass guitar. If you're using a microphone for vocals, you have a choice of five effects, including compressor, distortion, pan and EQ. Thanks to these high-quality, practical effects, you don't need anything but your instruments and microphone to rehearse and to record. Use the snapshot function of the Session Mixer to record your settings, so you can always resume your rehearsal or recording at a later stage. Finally, a built-in metronome helps you to keep pace - a button on the top of the Roland HS-5 allows you to tap out the right tempo.
