• Before virtual instrument plug-ins became commonplace, Roland's instruments like the JV-1080, XP-80, XV-5080, and numerous others offered the ability to expand their sounds with user-installable SRX wave expansion boards, each loaded with a specialized sampled waveform set for different styles and genres.
• Roland’s wave expansion board releases eventually grew to over 30 titles including strings, brass, pianos, electric pianos, keyboards, and orchestral sounds.

• One of the finest string compilations, built from proprietary sampling sessions with top European orchestras
