Roland US show the SC as a current model.

I know, but I searched every online retailer that I can think of, nothing to be found?

B&H Photo-Video-Audio

ProSound & Stage Lighting

etc…

Try using Google.

[rcknrllmn]

LOL, I did google it about 50 times. I assumed since PSSL stated "e-mail me when it is in stock" they didn't have it. I never considered B&H & must have missed it on google. Looks like they may have it. Thanks.

Good luck with your hunt!

It is certainly possible for a retailer to mistakenly list something as available when it is not. I had that happen with the ARX-03 card. So, when in doubt, there is no substitute for contacting the retailer.

And there is always eBay.

[rcknrllmn]

I guess ebay is my only option. The retailers are telling me the item has been discontinued by the manufacturer.

Roland still has it on the website. But the only music store I found carrying it was Pro Audio & Stage Lighting (linked above). And their price was crazy.

So I bought one off EBay today. Hope it works.

Maybe they're going to release a Jupiter-Cell or something. It's about time Roland should release a high-end sound module.
Fantom XR -> gone
V-Synth XT -> gone
Sonic Cell -> no sampling, 2 less SRX slots etc.
SD-50 -> kinda low end
Fantom G -> no corresponding sound module yet (and possibly never)
Jupiter 80 -> no corresponding sound module yet

This is not a complaint....so much of what Roland makes overlaps. I thought the sonic cell was discontinued a while ago. People in here figured out a long time ago what waves were new and which were not in the sonic cell. Some of the waves are from the fantom G. So the sonic cell is a great bridge between the fantom s/x and the G. I am a fan of the sonic cell and I do not use it with a computer. I put two srx cards in it Studio for the drums and the analog essentials(a great card) because I do not have a moog.(though I am getting the minitaur soon)
cheers,
Ian

The SC is indeed a great board and I fully regret that I had to sell mine a while ago.
Now I miss it even more after selling my Fantom Xa...
I got an old second hand RS-70 but that is nothing compared to the SC when it comes to sounds and sound quality :-(

Rolandus website still shows the SC as a current product yes, but I suspect it is not in production any more...
think you need to look for a 2nd hand one
