I have one of these. It's about 20 years old now, still works great. several of the expansion cards too. There's one with a bunch of 70's sounds on it. Couple of my favorite sounds, Soaring Saws, Sun Dive, and the French horn section sounds really great, from the orchestral card .
I have a Fantom-S and all the Xv5080 sound with de Editor Soft. It's amazing. All the JV2080 sounds are in the XV5080. So, i have a Jv2080, xv5080 and the Fantom-S, all in one machine : )
Nice demo! Never had a chance to play around with the 5080 back in the day, (I was too busy with my Yamaha and Korg monsters), but recently I was toying with the Roland Cloud version and decided I just REALLY! had to have the hardware. Just bought one today, can't wait for it to show up :-)
If it's anything like the 2080 you can build your own patches. You can start with a couple of saw waveforms (tones) and the apply octaves, fine tune, filters etc. Each patch can have at least four waveforms and shed loads of manipulation on each waveform then even more on the overall patch. These can then be saved into the user area. There are heaps of raw synth waveforms to choose from (saw, tri, square, PWM etc.) It doesn't have to be a ROMpler.
It's great knowing this synth will live on in the Jupter X / XM. I have a JD 990 and have always wondered if I want / need the XV. It's a fantastic box for sure though. Amazing playing as always!
Thank you very much! With the JD-990 you already have a fantastic machine with several similar style waves / patches. However the 5080 adds the ability to load SRX boards in addition to SR-JV80, sample playback, more effects etc., I'd also look at the Integra 7 if you're looking to expand the palette with more modern / realistic style samples
Agreed Marshal. They are simply gorgeous. I would say, they have defo stood the test of time across many genres of music. I dig all that sound from JD,JV to XV . Btw don't you have a Fantom ?. How does that stand up in terms of these types of sounds.
Hi, I'm from the 'future'. Just a tip if you want to have those XV-5080 sounds in hardware form and don't want to buy a second hand unit (if you can). The recently released Roland MC-101 (and 707) Groovebox contains all the patches of the XV-5080. The 128 patches of the USER bank of the XV-5080 are spread over the banks of the MC-101. The 896 patches of the XV-5080's Preset Groups A through G are all contained in The MC's Bank E, in the same order. The 256 patches of the XV-5080's Preset Group H (GM2 Group) are contained in the even larger Bank F of the MC-101. Furthermore you can have 4x those patches played on the MC-101 (it has 4 channels) and the MC-707 can even do that 8 times, as it has 8 channels. The MC's have about 4x more patches available, so the XV-5080 makes up about a quarter of the patches. The MC-101 is tiny and can even work on four AA batteries, so it is versatile and space saving. You can easily layer different patches when using external midi (set channels to the same midi channel). Editing patches on the MC-101 isn't really possible at the moment, though on the MC-707 it is, but that is quite a different (and more expensive) beast.
@@floridahiker1503 Thanks, you might be right, but from what I hear what Paolo plays here, they sound the same. The only gripe I have is you can't edit patches on the MC-101, but we might get an editor some day. Still, this is a great little box of sounds and a great option. I would love to own a real XV-5080 but I have no space, lol.
Licinius Varrus Not that I know of. The 5080 has a different sound engine. The converters sound better on the 5080 too. The stock sounds in the Integra are mediocre. The expansions are great that’s all I really use the Integra for. I’d use the 5080 for more synth based sounds over the Integra.

me da ganas de calar uno de esos, pero no me da ganas de tener que repararlo, me imagino que los chips mas importantes de los circuitos solamente se pueden obtener de otros xv-5080, y estas cosas ya estan muy viejas, las partes mas faciles de reemplazar deben de tener poca vida restante

Great Demos as usual 👍 Just a question, have you ever used the sample playback function on the xv5080? I've never seen anyone uploaded a video on this before.
Thank you, yes, others have asked the same question in the comments. I'll do a video on it, it's very similar to loading sounds from SCSI on any old school sampler.
Yes, it was truly an amazing unit when it came out, and still valid. The sample playback feature was a nice addition as well, if there aren't many comments or reviews about it I can do one.
Usually a sound that is suitable for playing chords to "pad out" the song. They often have slow attacks and they don't get in the way of more opinionated instruments. In older songs (and still in many new ones) it's an organ. String machines were suited to the job and were very common during the disco era when polyphonic synths were unobtainium.

The 1080 is more muted on the outputs. Also the 5080 has some midi jam up when using the drums card with the other sounds being played from a DAW. I can't use it for drums for this reason. But it sounds great for pads.
On Integra-7, Reverb/Chorus are at the multi level only, not at the patch level.
I love Roland don’t get me wrong they sound fantastic.. But when I’m on an 80s kick only KORG delivers..
it's similar to fantom xr?
The Fantom XR was more modern and had a more modern, more precise sound. I have more than one thousand audio demos from the Fantom XR here at my HTML website: www.synthmania.com/fantom_xr.htm
Can I get these patches on a Roland XV5050?
monsterjazzlicks Nope. Different architecture.
@@aristotlekumpis7095 - Not even with the expansion cards?
Are those factory patches?
Yes
The only thing better than the XV-5080 is the XV-5050. Because chrome.
Lush Roland sounds, no one does it better
