That's pretty expensive though, I'm thinking about buying one ASAP (I hate my onboard noisemaker 2000 soundcard), and it's about $AU195 ($US145) here in Sweden.

I take it that's a good price then?

Definitly.. I pray for the day when TC Electronic and Clavia strike a deal... (they're basically the only major hardware VA manufacturer that hasn't)

I'm assuming it all depends on sales. If access makes alot of money from porting to poco (which I'm pretty sure they did), clavia might be inclined to do the same. After all that's why they're in business, to make money. I'm pissed off that Novation ported the V-station instead of a supernova, which actually uses the same dsp chips as on the poco so porting it would of been fairly easy. But i guess since they already did all the work porting the kstation to vst format, porting it to poco probably didnt require to much effort, although i heard the poco vstation will sound exactly like the hardware down to the filters and effects.

But that isn't saying much. I bought an A-Station a while ago and immediatly resold it and bought a Virus Rack becuase it sounded nearly exactly like V-Station (not saying V/K/A-Station sounds bad, but my Virus (and just about any other good hardware synth) absolutly destroys it )..

Yeh a port of the SuperNova II would of been awesome... so would a port of the JP8080 (which is possible since it's VA) but I doubt Roland would do that since they havn't made a single (real) synthesizer since the JP80X0.. Plus they think they're too 1337 to even touch TC Electronic, I'm sure

Roland should port the jp, with no chance of cracked software and with a huge chunk of home studio owners producing trance, house, hip hop, the JP would be on most peoples christmas shopping list.
