SR-JV80-07 Super SoundSet
Expansion board

 

Number seven in the long (19 cards) run of expansion boards that Roland produced for the JV/XP series of synthesizers.

This board is based on all the waveforms , patches and rhythm sets originally provided on cards 01 through 08 in the SO-PCM1 series sound library (except for the 04), but also includes completely new patches created  by combining the use of multiple SO-PCM1 series cards.

It's a rather conventional card, with many piano, guitar, organ, harpsichord patches that lend themselves well to classical, baroque and medieval music.
