yes, my bad, i all forgot about VA series.
i still believe the "prelude" is a prelude to the new top arranger from roland. now, it might come in later than they wanted, due to the bad economy, but later this year or next year they will do it.
and i believe, and hope for, that next roland TOTL, just as prelude, will introduce some (more) serious synth features, like arpeggios, real-time sound modify, in-depth sound editing, etc. and since prelude is another form of the GW-8 synth, why not hope for a fantom-G arranger?

why wasn't VA so succesfull btw? or was it?
