Roland XV-5080 Rackmount Synthesizer – 128MB RAM + SR-JV80 Bass & Drums + Hip Hop Collection

Roland’s flagship XV-series rack synth and one of the most powerful hardware sound modules ever produced. The XV-5080 delivers the classic Roland sound with extensive expansion capability, making it equally at home in modern studios and vintage MIDI setups.

This unit has been fully tested and is in excellent working order. A new internal memory backup battery has been fitted, and the unit is equipped with the maximum 128MB RAM. It also includes two desirable SR-JV80 expansion boards:
