Yes Roland still got it. Now if they only make a arranger based on these supernatural sounds. How great would that be.

It appears that some of the rumors are true..Looks like the Jupiter-80 sits in a "Juno Stage" type case with 76 keys...so hopefully the "New" arranger will be full-filled..

Thanks for the link , now we don`t have to wait till the 6th

Jupiter 80 , ok , not an arranger with speakers but worth more info !!

I wonder if it has Aftertouch ?

Looks amazing !

The price IMO is way off the mark 3.5 ~ 4K

Also in the magazine:

Yamaha MOX6 (15 pounds) and MOX8 (30 pounds)

Yamaha pushed the Motif XS line down into the MO line. This should be a great bargain.

Jupiter 80 & Bk7m might be a killer combo?

FIVE GRAND....I bet it would...

You don't get a killer combo from two products from the same manufacturer, IMO...

BK-7m and a MoXF... that's probably killer.

BK-7m and a Kronos... even MORE killer.

And, you never thought you'd hear me say it, but... BK-7m and an MS?

Yowzah! Killer...

But two Korg's, two Roland's, two Yamaha's... Just not enough variation for me. It's like coffee flavored ice cream over coffee wafers, covered in coffee sauce! You'd better REALLY like coffee

I LOVE coffee.
