"I am sure they ment to say “Elevator music ready: sounds.
This little guy is nothing more then an updated version of a previously mentioned XP-10 which was basically a General Midi keyboard with knobs and an arpeggiator."

Not directed at you, just this is an odd statement given the gear and sound many people of these boards have. Elevator music seems to be the rule of the day...so in a twisted way this could be exactly what some are looking for.

Past that there is a software editor for the board, its merits are up in the air...yet it does have one.

I kinda felt the Juno-D was more an RS-50 give or take random features more then anything else.

"You know what floors me? Is that we can no longer rely on model names for an anticipated expectation of sound."

Well, if someone reads a name...and just buys something its their problem.

"If Roland was smart, they would produce 16, 32 and 64 voice Jupiters with a new generation JU sound chip capable of flexible sound formant. Now if Roland did that, I think they would sell some boards"

Roland might just be smart, explore their site a bit...in reality they are working on your stated fantasy ( at least in part).
