Here's an auction for a Roland XV5050 1U Rack Synth. Anyone familiar with the legendary XV sound quality will know they're in for a treat here. The XV was bought mint used but has seen little use over the last couple of years as guitar-based music has overtaken studio projects - the unit is still practically mint and comes in original box. It sounds too peachy to just sit there doing nothing so onto ebay it goes.
I'm a 100% ebay user and have sold items of all values so bid with total confidence.

All three effects processors are available in Patch or Performance mode, enabling you to create lush multitimbral sequences. And with 24-bit converters and digital outputs in S/P DIF and optical formats, your music will be reproduced with the utmost clarity and detail.
Easy USB Connection
If you make music on a PC, you’ll appreciate the XV-5050’s front panel USB port. Just load the USB driver from the included CD-ROM and suddenly MIDI cables are a thing of the past. (Of course, the XV-5050 is equipped with standard MIDI connections as well). Now desktop musicians can add Roland’s powerful XV-Series sounds and effects to their music with the simplicity of USB!
