With 45 meticulously crafted accordion types covering accordions from all around the world, FISA SUPREMA has an authenticity that rivals the finest traditional instruments, removing the need for multiple accordions. FISA SUPREMA even allows you to customize your instrument to create your perfect accordion. Choose the type and combination of reeds, decide whether the reed is placed inside or outside the cassotto (tone chamber), select the type of growl and mechanical noises, decide your tuning, and configure the bass layout to your preference. You can even selectively "age" the sound of the instrument, creating a truly personalized accordion tailored to your personal taste and style. Available in both keyboard and button versions it caters to the diverse needs of accordionists worldwide.
Dynamic realism
Central to the FISA SUPREMA’s realism is our unique Natural Bellows Response technology. This advanced system succeeds where others have failed, in replicating the feel and response of an acoustic accordion with remarkable precision. Our exclusive technology continuously monitors and adjusts to the bellows' movement and pressure, capturing every subtle nuance of your performance in real-time. This provides an unmatched feel and response, offering a dynamic range that allows you to seamlessly transition between delicate passages and powerful sections.
Unmatched digital power with Cutting-edge control
The FISA SUPREMA’s digital prowess opens a world of possibilities, offering a level of versatility and control that other accordions simply cannot achieve. The FISA SUPREMA provides an incredible selection of sounds and performance capabilities that go beyond the realm of the traditional accordion.
Layer sounds, create scenes for quick recall, and customize every aspect of your performance with programmable buttons, multiple registers, and assignable controls. The FISA SUPREMA includes chin switches, a fully-assignable master bar switch, touch sensors for horizontal note control, and aftertouch for control over your sound beyond an initial key press. In addition, a 2-axis accelerometer uniquely allows you to affect your sound through movements of the accordion forwards and to the right. FISA SUPREMA provides an expressive potential that allows you to shape your sound and performance intuitively and naturally.
