Anyone know when this sucker is going to be released?

When?
Re: When?
As squeak mentioned in another post, Sweetwater says it's shipping this month. Other retailers in the US originally said September 22nd but have now changed it to October 18th. Because Sweetwater has a special "in" with Roland, they usually stock their products before anyone else. See squeak's postings about his Juno-Di ordering experience for an example of how sometimes things can go awry with availability time frames!

Re: When?
Michael is correct. Sweetwater has a very special relationship with Roland. When new Roland gear hits retailers here in the USA, Sweetwater is usually the first to get them. Release dates can be a little misleading too. You have to consider how retailers bring in their sales as it's pretty tough competition out there. Sometimes release dates are posted (when not entirely accurate), and pre-ordering is pushed heavily by the retailer as well. If it's going to be a hot item.., often retailers will play with release dates and times to boost pre-order sales. Many online retailers have a goal to sell out their first shipments too. I was the very FIRST pre-order with Sweetwater for the Juno-Di. I was more than likely one of the first consumers in the USA to own a Juno-Di too. Sweetwater shipped it upon getting their shipment.., (this was on a Tuesday).., I had my Juno-Di in hand the very next day.

Re: When?
yea I'm on the other side of the fence. Given sound improvements and the digital audio recorder and the USB audio interface to me it's worth the price.

Re: When?
I'm wondering if the keys are more playable than on the Juno G? I loved that machine, but hated the action on it. Roland's latest synths (Gaia, AX, Stage) all have had great keys, I'm hoping the Gi will follow suit.
