I finally have to admit that my Roland JV-1010 was either lost or stolen during one of many moves last year and needs to be replaced. I have a couple of questions for the group.

I'd prefer the identical unit as I am familiar with it and have the documentation for it. I also like the portability and ease of using it on with than one computer. If one of you has one for sale, I'm interested. (I'm looking at two on eBay for $135 and $149, with shipping included.)

I'm also interested in your thoughts on other hard or soft synths in the $100 range. New gear is probably out of the question. I know about the Coyote VSTi, but don't like the idea of buying one for each PC; not ruling it out, but how does it stack up against a hardware module?

Any of your collective thoughts on the matter will be of value.

Thanks,

Richard
