Roland XPS-10X BK Expandable Synthesizer

Overview

The XPS-10X brings you the essential features of the flagship XPS-60 in a streamlined, performance-ready keyboard. It offers a massive selection of sounds to cover nearly any style—including a wide range of regional folk instruments—plus support for adding more with World Expansion titles on Roland Cloud. The keyboard also provides powerful tools to enhance performances and creative sessions, such as an Audio Player with independent pitch and speed control, per-tone scale tuning, a class-compliant USB-C audio/MIDI interface, and more.

Acclaimed Roland Sounds

The XPS-10X features over 1600 diverse sounds from the core XPS-60 library, including pianos, organs, guitars, basses, orchestral instruments, synths, drums, and more. In addition, there are many folk instrument selections to perform with authentic local sounds from regions around the world.

Add Global Instruments with the World Expansion Series

The XPS-10X also supports region-specific sound collections from the World Expansion series on Roland Cloud. Each title includes new waveforms and tone data, allowing you to discover rare instrument sounds from India, Mexico, South America, Southeast Asia, and more. World Expansions can be purchased and installed via Roland Cloud Manager on a computer or the XPS Tone Loader app for mobile devices.

Portable Inspiration

Like all instruments in the XPS series, the XPS-10X delivers excellent playability in a robust and rugged design. The expressive 61-note keyboard offers outstanding feel, and you can power the instrument with a rechargeable mobile battery for the ultimate grab-and-go convenience.

Free-Flowing Sound Creation

With its ergonomic panel layout, performing and composing with the XPS-10X is a joy. Call up tones with intuitive category buttons and set up favorites for quick access. Split and layer tones, change the octave range and transposition, and apply arpeggio and chord memory functions with quick button presses. When you’re done, save the complete setup within a Scene memory for one-touch recall on stage.

Perform with Backing Music

The XPS-10X’s Audio Player function makes elevating your performances with backing music easy. Connect a USB flash drive with your WAV/AIFF audio files, assign them to the eight phrase pads, and launch them as you play. Pitch and playback speed are independently adjustable for each file, allowing you to match a vocalist's singing range or change the tempo to suit the mood.

Multi-Function Phrase Pads

Along with song playback, the XPS-10X phrase pads can trigger onboard drum sounds or imported samples in real time. You can also use them as part select and part mute buttons while working with the step sequencer.

Accessible Scale Settings

Just like the XPS-60, the XPS-10X allows you to set the optimal scales for each tone individually so they’re ready to play when needed. When Transpose Sync is enabled, your custom scale settings will automatically follow the current keyboard transpose button setting.

Step Sequencer

The eight-track step sequencer is ideal for sketching song ideas and creating interactive backing with the XPS-10X’s onboard sounds. The arpeggio function and built-in rhythms automatically synchronize with the sequencer, ready to bring fresh energy to your keyboard performances.

Connect with Computers and Mobile Devices

The XPS-10X’s class-compliant USB-C audio/MIDI interface lets you perform and record with music apps or stream gig audio via your phone. And with integrated computer DAW control, you can operate functions in your favorite software platform from the XPS-10X panel. The XPS Tone Loader app also communicates via USB-C, allowing you to purchase and install World Expansion titles using your smartphone or tablet.
