This sheet is funny. I bet it's their 4/1 press release.

| | | Just a little history, afaik, that datasheet was released on a April 1.....1992ish
fast forward about 10 years, Roland's Italian design team released the Virtual Accordian....on April 1, not knowing that since the belchfire, many companies had April 1 product launches trying to outdo crown and that April 1st releases had become quite the gag for April fools. By then the internet was in full swing and ......can you imagine the meetings at Roland afterwards?

| | | | no, the Roland launch was serious, but the timing was off, and yes I think the original post is funny, even almost 20 years later

Andy | Apparently it's been fairly successful, because they've launched a whole bunch of models at different price points with different feature sets. Here's a cool sample. Check out some of this guy's other videos.
