Instant response from a 32-bit RISC chip for more realtime potential
The Roland XP-80 is a new music workstation developed along the concept of instant response and more realtime operation. A complete rethink of the music workstation, the XP-80 streamlines operational flow and increases comprehensive music workstation power, effectively handling everything from music production to live performance, without compromise. The 32-bit RISC chip exercises optimal control over all the new XP-80 features. Like a newly developed MRC Pro sequencer system that is highly advanced, yet allows spontaneous operation to maintain your creative flow. And a sound source that is equivalent to the acclaimed Roland JV-1080, providing superb sound quality, advanced functions and maximum expandability. The XP-80's advantages synergistically combine to establish a new reference standard for music workstations in terms of sheer expressiveness, performance scope and operational versatility.
32-bit RISC chip enables instant response
The XP-80's main CPU is a 32-bit RISC chip for lightning fast and accurate response to performance data. Using this chip places all workstation operational flow under advanced central processing control.
