Sweeten Your Sound: Roland has been creating catchy, genre-defining sounds for over half a century. And a big part of that soundtrack is our unique approach to effects processing. JUNO’s swirling chorus, feedback tape echo and other sounds have left their mark on countless tracks over the decades. Now with ZENOLOGY FX you can add that flair to any keyboard sound or instrumental track right from your DAW.
Desired Effects:
With over 90 processors to choose from, there are many ways to bring your synthesizer sounds to life. Add delays to arps, modulation effects to chord progressions, distort basses and lead tones that burst out of your speakers.
Legendary Inspiration:
Many of the effects featured in ZENOLOGY FX are inspired by those found on some of Roland’s truly legendary products. The JUNO swirl chorus, the CE-1 stompbox and the JD-800’s sophisticated multi-effects section are just a few.
Modern design:
While many of the processors in ZENOLOGY FX are vintage-inspired, what you can do with them and how you work with them is quite modern. Based on ZENOLOGY, these effects have a modern interface and simple controls for free creativity.
Modulation Master:
Modulation effects include choruses, phasers, flangers and more – and they work wonders on synths and other keyboards. With them, you add movement to synth parts and amplify sounds so that they seem to exist outside of your speakers.
Noble Delays:
Delays add space without depriving the sound of presence and immediacy. And Roland delays are known for adding some serious drama to the recipe with feedback and modulation controls to really spice things up.
Exotic sounds:
ZENOLOGY FX includes a menagerie of unique Roland effects to push your tracks into uncharted sonic territory. Explore the DJFX Looper and lo-fi effects of the SP-404, or the multi-layered multi-effects of the famous JD-800 synthesizer. Or color your sounds with slicers, filters, overdrives and more from Roland’s extensive legacy of effects.

The deep browser in ZENOLOGY FX makes it easy to find the perfect sound.
