Definitely not worth the price new. But ebay prices can be good. And I think they do nicely add to the sound pallet of the core unit, giving you many more options.

I have all of the cards. For your 80's genre, although I suggest SRX-07 and SRX-08 for quantity, I also suggest SRX-05 for quality.

very cool. Are you using only the FG effects for the organ?
There is discussion of B3-organ sound in another thread.

alex, let me get this straight. You have a Nord Stage and a Vent. Why are you routing it through your Fantom G to work around getting a better organ sound? Oh, sorry, I just re-read your message. You are using the Fantom to mix it all to one stereo output. I see how that can help you eliminate the u...

Perhaps a new cup holder with expansion slots to hold multiple official Roland coffee mugs! For only $499!

I just got a Neo Ventilator. It makes all the difference, I promise.

Oops, sorry apex, my bad. So, yeah you're right, I see the SRJV-03 patches do mix in quite a lot of the XV waveforms. I have all SRJV and SRX cards, and can easily see all wave/patches using my old editor/librarian. The SRJV-09 contains my favorite piano waveforms of the SRJV series. That was also p...

It is true, many of the SRX-03 patches use several of the internal XV waveforms. And although there is even at least one patch that uses ONLY internal waves, most patches are a mix of both. That is how many patches of the other SRX cards are. Since I program most of my own patches, I don't really ca...

It's true the Session card has more pop sounding brass waveforms. The Latin card SRJV80-18 has some nice brass that may be more of what you are looking for. I have used it for more expressive sounds.

This is certainly the most useful mod for a synth I have seen. Thanks for posting the great photos and details!

I've tried them all and Rocktron Banshee is the top.
Although popular as a guitar effect, I use it with keyboard on funk tunes like Roger Troutman on 'More Bounce' and 'California Love'. It really gets attention. A wah pedal is much different, and no internal keyboard effects will sound close.

If you're not satisfied with the internal sounds, search on ebay for SRJV80-09 Session expansion board. It has the best brass.

I assume Logic has detailed editing. Perhaps this is just one of the things that is scaled down for Garageband?

...still holding out for my Roland piano bench with built in drink holder.

In Patch Edit, increase Release of the TVA Envelope.
