Roland partnered up with Bandcamp for Bandcamp Friday on October 4, 2024, offering three months of Roland Cloud Ultimate to all BC artists/fans.
One of the most popular independent music distribution platforms is Bandcamp. Here, any artist can publish their music very easily and for free. However, Bandcamp keeps a percentage of the revenue (15% on digital items) as a commission. But not always.
This is the case on Bandcamp Friday, which happens every month. Here, the company ignores its slice of pizza, and the artist gets 100% of its revenue. The next Bandcamp Friday is tomorrow, October 4, 2024, and it’s a special one.
Roland x Bandcamp Friday
This time, Roland is supporting the campaign with a giveaway. Every Bandcamp artist or fan will receive the Roland Ultimate Studio Suite, which includes three months of Roland Cloud Ultimate, for $49.99 for free. Only for new Cloud users, says Roland.
It includes over 50 Roland plugins, including emulations of the legendary TR-808, TR-909, TB-303, JUNO-60, JUNO-106, JUPITER-8, and many other classics. The latest effects plugins, including the RE-201 Space Echo and JUNO-60 Chorus, are also part of the free Ultimate subscription.
Then, you get access to the ZENOLOGY Synthesizer, which is the software counterpart of the hardware ZEN-Core engine. It features thousands of Roland sounds in one easy-to-use Synthesizer plugin.
Roland’s latest super instrument “plugin host,” GALAXIAS, with the ability to layer up to four instruments, is also onboard. Alongside GALAXIAS, you also get other studio instruments like the DW Soundworks drum plugin and the Earth piano.
Plus, the Roland Bandcamp Friday deal gives you access to the ever-growing sound collection, which includes patches, patterns, sample packs, and style packs for every Roland piece of hardware and software. On top of that, it ships with full access to the Roland Zenbeats music creation app for mobile devices.
Two More Things
That’s not all. At the end of your three months of Roland Ultimate, you can continue with a subscription or claim a 50% OFF Lifetime Key purchase for a one-time transaction of an instrument and sound collection.
Further, you save 25% OFF on apparel and merchandise at the Roland Lifestyle shop.
How To Benefit?
First, you need to sign up for Roland. Then, you get an email with the unique coupon to claim the Roland Ultimate Studio Suite for Bandcamp Friday. Next, you must follow the email instructions to create your Roland Cloud account.
Roland usually requires a credit card to participate in RC. If you do not want to participate for more than three months, it is important to cancel your subscription early.
The Roland Bandcamp Friday offer is available for Bandcamp artists and fans only until October 4, 2024. According to Roland, this offer is only valid for new Roland Cloud users.
