"Roland XV-5080 is a pro studio workhorse!"

Feature:
The amount of sounds available is stunning. This is one piece a pro studio will get a lot of mileage from. You can use iot for ANY project! The Expansion capabilities a big plus (SRX & SR Expansion slots) - and especially the ability to import great Roland sample libraries from SCSI devices. I only wished for more sample memory (128 MB max).

Quality:
Excellent quality.

Value:
Being a such a high-end product - the price is fairly good.

Sound:
It's one of the best sounding Roland modules I have ever heard. Also, the internal effects are superb.

Overall:
Right now - in the market the XV-5080 really stand on its own - it really does not have direct "competitor" IMHO. The editability of sounds and creative resources available for the XV is quite remarkable.
