Adi, how could you?! The E60/50 have SOME of the E80 sounds, but of COURSE not the same...!

The E80 has a lot of sounds and drumkits the E50/60 doesn't have at all, and then MUCH less ROM for the sounds, so those samples that ARE in common are FAR more compressed, shortened, looped earlier and played back through MUCH less high quality D/A converters and associated electronics.

This has ALWAYS been Roland's (and just about everyone else's, too) way of making the instrument affordable, and not scavenge sales from the TOTL at the same time. Just listen to a G600 next to a G1000... Supposedly the same sounds, night and day in comparison.
