zZounds Gear Experts Say...
Wave expansion boards for XP-Series, JV-Series, and JD-Series.
Overview
You'll find authentic combo organs like the Farfisa V.I.P., Vox Super Deluxe Continental, and Vox Jaguar presented in their full glory. The Rhodes Piano Bass is here to complete the 60's scene. If you need cheesy pads, nothing beats the old ARP and Elka string ensembles. Roland even included the Mellotron, Chamberlin, and Optigan libraries. Every key click, hiss, and tape wow are fully preserved. Top it all off with authentic record surface noise samples. Peace, Love, and Sampling!

"Some sounds are incredible.B3 a little plastic sounding,but better than most other keyboards!! They tend to sound a litle plasti"
Sound
Sounds great.The Tonewheel Piano is incredible.The Wurlitzer too..
Don't care much about the B3-sounds anymore,since I now own a Korg CX3,which of course sounds much better.(obviously,since the price is so much higher.)
I've owned my XP-50 since 1995,and now I'm wondering about buying the Piano-board.I need some good piano sounds on stage,and in my home studio.
Features
The most useful sounds for me are Tone Wheel Piano-Wurlitzer,and a couple of the Rhodes-patches.
Quality
Yep,it's made very well.
Manufacturer Support
There is no real support for Roland here in norway.The guys at the music shop don't bother checking up on these "old" cards anyway.
The Wow Factor
Being a professional musician and in need for those old B3/Wurlitzer/Rhodes-sounds,I just had to get me one of these..;)
