RE: Have Roland lost the plot??
they have been pretty uninspiring for a while init
I think the last exciting, or rather genuinely aimed at above the home user market was the
variphrase thing, or the JP8080...
I know a guy who deals with them for a big uk chain, and from what i gather they seem happier to
regurgitate the golden era numbers (101/303/808/909) and juno etc branding with the new cheap
stuff.
Probably isnt the market for it anymore when it comes to the bottom line margin on profit what with
all the software available now, or rather, comparing to the market share they once had...
It seems there is more success in selling 10 x £300 units than 3 x £1000 units nowadays, as much
a shame as that is
