When visiting one of our Roland dealers last weekend I was told that there is a velocity sensitive upgrade for the JX3-P. What this upgrade accomplishes is that if used as a MIDI slave driven by a velocity sensitive unit the JX3 sounds will become velocity sensitive. This does not make the JX3 itself a velocity sensitive keyboard. The cost $120 I thought this was a little high as it entails adding one EPROM to the keyboard. The dealer wouldn't divulge the source for the EPROM but I am planning on writing to Roland to see if they sell it. dave

In the Roland Users Group magazine, they have an order form for the EPROM upgrade. I forget the exact cost, but I seem to remember it is a lot less than $120. When I get home I'll check it out. I am asking Roland if they have (or plan to have) something similar for the JUNO 106. Derek | |||||

Dave (and others), Roland sells the JX-3P velocity sensitivity upgrade for $49.95 according to their Roalnd Users Group magazine order form. I don't think it is worth $70 to pull apart your synth, pop out a chip, pop in a new one, then put your synth back together. Sounds like I'm in the wrong business!! Derek | |||||
