Roland – System 1m Desktop/Rack (Messe Teaser II)

This teaser looks like there will be a System 1 Rack – called the System 1m coming – which is a very good idea since they keyboard wasn’t a pleasure but the Synth itself has a very high quality sound engine – so let’s hope for it to have more than 4 voices and possible more voices for the plugouts (Promars, SH2, SH101).
