Hi Dreamer,
Could be. One sure thing in those days, Roland patterns were the reference, and today, they're not. The absence of a new flagship model from Roland is something that really amazes me, considering the size and reputation of the company. And their last attempt (VA series) was disappointing.
But it seems, coming from a Roland rep at the last NAMM Show, that many very good products are ready to be manufactured
in their future Chinese factory. Good news, competition is always good.
