Yes, i like the soundquality of Roland-synths also very much, i 
always wanted to have one, but what always stops me to buy one, is 
the inconsistent userinterface. Roland synths are somehow way more 
complex to use than Yamaha or others. I don´t know what it is with me 
and Roland, but i always have trouble with them. The odd thing is, 
that Yamaha synths usually have less knobs and everything, but still 
i always catch much quicker how to use them.

Someone else made the same experience?
