I will get a XV 5080 in may and yes it can sample Akai s 1000 programs and S 700/760 patchs/performance.I will say yes it will blow jv 2080 away because the new 1083 waveforms,new matrix modulation and new effects like RSS,isolator,formantfilter and COSM effects.
1083 wavforms :
424 new .
112 JD 990 waves.
448 jv 2080 waves.
and new drums.
85 multi effects.
11 srv 3030 reverbs.
8 master EQ.
R bus with 8 outs in one cable to vm 3100pro/7000.
and XV 5080 is big like k 2600 and triton.
