"mention it to Roland"
- I thought you'd like that one!
But this discussion just cries for sarcasm and irony.
I think trying to figure out why the synth makers do what they do, or even try to persuade them to make any changes is an impossible task.
All we can do is either buy their synths or not buy them.
For years Roland were getting complains about the quality of their outputs, bad dynamic voice allocation, short and thin samples and sample compression. Not to mention obnoxious RND pan settings that almost all presets are set to. Complaining and asking questions did NOT make any difference at ALL.
At some point I just stopped buying their synths. That's my solution.
