"The compact JV-1010 offers the professional sounds of the acclaimed JV-2080 at an incredibly affordable price. It also includes all the sounds from the ""Session"" expansion board -- including Roland's most popular stereo grand piano -- and an expansion slot to give users access to the incomparable SR-JV80 Series sound library."

Extended information

Sounds, Sounds and More Sounds!
Though small in size, the JV-1010 really packs a sonic punch. With the complete sound set of the world-renowned JV-1080/2080 sound module (640 Preset and 128 User Patches), plus all 255 Patches from the Session wave expansion board, this diminutive sound module boasts some of Roland's very best Patches-stereo grand pianos, acoustic guitars, Juno, Jupiter and TB-303 synth sounds, and 18 full rhythm sets, to name a few.

There's also a built-in expansion slot for installing any of Roland's SR-JV80 Series wave expansion boards, giving users hundreds of additional sounds in genres ranging from Asian and Orchestral to Hip-Hop and Techno. And best of all, the JV-1010 offers full 64-voice polyphony and 16-part multitimbral capability-plus the same dedicated Reverb, Chorus and EFX (multi-effects) processing as the JV-1080-ensuring that sound quality is first-rate.

Quick, Easy Operation
To help users navigate through this wide array of sounds, JV-1010 Patches are grouped into categories (Piano, Key/Organ, Guitar/Bass, etc.) and banks which can be selected with a simple Category/Bank Select knob. A Phrase Preview function plays back the selected tone in a short musical phrase, while a built-in headphone jack allows quick confirmation of sounds and operation. Sound shaping can be accomplished via the bundled CD-ROM, which includes sound editing software for Mac and PC, used in conjunction with the JV-1010's rear-panel computer interface.
