You can get it rather cheap on ebay - and yes, it's worth the money, if you'd like hands-on action with a real synth, and there's no REAL cometition to the sounds it makes still with all the great virtual instruments around. PM alanzo, or google for some samples/info, and you'll get sorted I'd guess.

cant go wrong with the Roland JP.. i say def. get the 8080 over the 8000 the small changes/upgrades are worthwhile if you dont need a keyboard.
i have a bank i sell you can get a good example of the sounds off it.
yea but you dont get the vocoder on the jp8000! i just realised how fricking awesome the vocoder is on my virus b. i use my guitar through it and i can make it sound loopy. wooooooooh!

Vocoders are a bitch to hookup unless you have an outside source feeding into it (a guitar for example).
Either that or your sound card has to have two stereo outputs.
what are the main differences between the jp8080 and the virus b?

You can't ask that kind of question. They are both unique synths. You should search for features and sound clips, and do a comparison of your own.

Seems like trance producers can only choose between a jp 8000 and a 8080 I had to choose some years ago between waldorf micro q and jp and glad I chose waldorf. Except the supersaw it's capable of a far wider range of sounds than the jp. Jp has more dedicated knobs tho. Glad I can sound other than the rest.
