Chris-

I was talking with a Roland rep about a month or two ago. He said that they had ideas for one a while ago,..ut scrapped it,..due to development issues and sending alot of guys over for delopment of the VS produts and the digital Mixers. He said the Sampler was pretty amazing,..and that it had pretty much all Roland Effects ever made built-in ( I suspect the VS8f expansion boards..its their new hip thing). I could see hem tryig to put a hard disk in it tho...I think they have the pontential to due that. We'll see...I'ld suspect to hear something more about it beginning of next year or something like that.
