Very nice. It's starting to look better than the toy mini synths 
we had before.

Roland have "missed the boat" (that's what we say in NL). They 
should have released new analog versions of TB-303, TR-808/909 
and SH-101 with a couple of new functions. Now they have lost a 
lot of their market share to the likes of Korg and Arturia.

They do a lot of great stuff for guitars nowadays, but they 
certainly should have done some more for synths instead of all 
those boring pianos, arranger keyboards and workstations.

cheers,

Gert
