"Asia" is number fourteen in the Roland SR-JV80-series of
expansion boards for the XP/JV synthesizers.
This board features many sounds from several countries in Asia - China,
India, Japan, Korea and Indonesia. These samples are excellently
recorded and include percussion, strings, winds, special fx, and even
loops of real instruments played by local musicians.
The percussion patches are particularly impressive,
with much expressivity and "impact", but the strings and winds are
equally well-programmed and impressive-sounding.
Together with the "World" collection, also in the
SR-JV80 series, this card is a must have if you play ethnic/world
styles, or if you produce New Age/Ambient, soundtracks, documentary
music "bed" etc.
