Well Arvon, I stand corrected. I guess I looked in the wrong section of the reviews for the grunge effect. That still doesn't prove to me that my JV-2080 or other production units have that same defect. I never noticed this problem. No matter how much you try, you will not sway my opinion about Roland products.

I am sorry to hear that you have nothing better to do than to crusade against Roland gear. I don't know if I am alone here, but I have never had a problem with sound quality on my Roland gear. I have grown to rely on it.

It sure seems to me that you had to dig deep to find those few people who had the problems you described.

Tell you what, why don't you send me any of your Roland gear, since you obviously have a vendetta against the company. I would be happy to have it.

I do not wish to get into a heated debate on the grunge decay issue, because that is not the original point anyway. Respond how you must, but I have better things to do with my time, and quite frankly, I don't care if you had a problem with Roland. I never had a problem with them, and that's all that counts to me. Now let's make some music.
