they has on Roland Va- arranger keyboards V-Tones and they sounding very good, compare them with Yamaha Mega Voices.
read this from roland VA-7/76 V-Arranger Keyboard Brochure:
And exceptional sounds we call “V” Tones that, for the first time ever, do not stop at the generation of the most vibrant instruments ever but also provide all the “noises” typically associated with these sounds. Take, for instance, the acoustic guitars. By playing a low note (using the Octave function), you can produce the typical scraping noises. Press the key next to it, and the virtual guitarist starts knocking on the guitar body. Baffling! And how about a trumpet sound that is muted when you strike the keys lightly, and changes into a full-blown trumpet at higher velocities? Or a cymbal where you can clearly tell where the stick hits the bell or the cymbal proper? Or real vibrato instead of a mechanic-sounding LFO, and breath noises that take your breath away? Hearing is believing.
this a short text but V-tones on Roland-VA sound amazin good. V-drums on Roland VA- are very good, i think even better then yamaha and korg

I had a VA76 and a G70 and a GW8, and a PSR3000 and Tyros 1 and 2 and a Motif XS and a S70XS, and a SD1+ and a Midjay and a Gem XS module and a Korg PA1 and PA2.
So I think I have a bit of knowledge about how I think they all sound
