Synths ⇝ Roland ⇝ Roland JV-2080

The Roland JV-2080 is part of the JV/XP/XV family, and is a slight upgrade from the JV-1080 and a step down from the XV-3080.

Like other members of the Roland JV family, the JV-2080 is expandable via the SR-JV80 series of expansion boards. With 8 expansion slots, the 2080 can hold more JV expansions than any other synthesizer in the series.

The JV-2080 can store patches on the Roland M-256E RAM card. Eye & I Productions has also created a "Voice Crystal X" card that is a compatible replacement for the M-256E.
