Well it looks like I'm sticking with the XV at present- but I haven't fully made up my mind! Any other comments/opinions out there?

After going into the Japanese site with the great info about the XV range last night, I think it may have convinced me to stick with the XV over getting the JV.

Bye the way, what are the 128 extra patches in the XV5080? And does the XV3080 have 6 outs (like on the JV1080/2080) or just 4 outs. If it only has 4, I think Roland really did us studio musicians a disservice!

PS- Has anyone heard the new piano and drums PCM boards for the XV series. The drum board particularly interests me at the moment and the piano board I would look at later- boy, this buying more stuff business never stops does it!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks to both of the above responses so far. Korgasm.
