Los Angeles, CA, July 23, 2004— Roland is proud to announce the AT-45 Atelier Organ, the new luxury mid-class model for the organ enthusiast. With unsurpassed sound quality and realtime performance enhancement features, the AT-45 is the next generation of organ innovation available from Roland.

The new AT-45 incorporates many of the same key features that have made the Roland Atelier Series a household name including a color touch screen for simple navigation, outstanding organ sounds and a vast library of orchestral voices.

Perfect for the intermediate and more advance player the new AT-45 also features an extensive collection of rhythm patterns that were played by professional drummers. All rhythm patterns were recorded using patented Roland V-Drums technology for the ultimate drum and percussion experience. New Rhythm Search and Rhythm Customize functions help organists easily access and edit their favorite rhythms via the color screen while the user-friendly "Composer" function with color-coded scores gives the organist instant access to the "Track Mute" and "DigiScore" options.
