Overview
With the VS-840GX Digital Studio Workstation, Roland breaks the price/performance barrier in affordable digital recording. This tabletop studio starts by integrating a 8-track digital recorder, effects processor, digital mixer, and extensive editing system with 999 levels of Undo. It then adds more of the features that guitarists, songwriters, and home recordists want — like twice the amount of Virtual Tracks, new COSM Speaker Modeling technology, .WAV file conversion, and new JamTracks.
