Described for years as Roland's ultimate sound module, the XV-5080 boasted immense PCM-based multitimbral synthesis power, sophisticated modulation, an array of pro-quality DSP effects, and compatibility with the popular SRX Expansion Board series. I don't want to go back and test with the old original LDO but you can try in first intention to replace the three aluminium capacitors C79 + C71 + C75 to check if the problem is solved only by replacing these parts before to go further. Released in 2000, the Roland XV-5080 stepped onto the scene, leaving a mighty footprint. When the bypass capacitors are replaced the ripple is even lower with the new regulator. and at the end the LDO if replacing caps doesn't workīut my unit works well now with the new regulator :)

C75 -> the mine was measured at 5uF instead of 10uF -> replaced C71 -> the mine was measured at 6uF -> replaced

C79 -> the mine was measured at 1uF instead of 47uF! -> replaced So for someone having the same trouble the best to be sure is to replace: I must make more tests because the capacitors even if they seems ok with multimeter, they looks bad under LCR meter with huge ESR. The XV-5080 ships with CD demos of samples from Roland, Ilio, and a few other distributors. I've replaced the voltage regulator and the problem is gone! \o/Īnd even before to recap the PSU and without the test bypass capacitor connected. It has 128 voices and much better FX, sound routing, sound creation.
ROLAND XV 5080 SOUNDS DRIVER
Also, the noise appears equally on all outputs - jacks, S/PDIF, and even the headphone output on the front panel.ĭo you think the unit can be repaired? Any other pointers you can give me? All help appreciated - I was just getting in to learning this classic piece of kit and now its ruined!! In particular Im keen to know if the 5050 is missing any PCM samples, filter types or effects types that the 5080 has Finally - will rolands XV5050 USB Driver and Sound Editor run on OSX 10.9 Thanks, Kevin. The XV5080 is taking over from the JV1080 and has all the expansion cards from there. I'm pretty sure that the noise is being introduced BEFORE the effects, as I can hear reverb on the noise. The noise itself sounds a bit like a noisy pot being wiggled on an amplifier, but a bit more digital than that (if that makes sense). Some patches are affected worse than others, and a small number are not affected at all.
ROLAND XV 5080 SOUNDS PATCH
The noise only happens when notes are being played, but this is not your classic polyphony issue as the noise happens even if a single note on a regular, built-in patch is being played. There is a crackling noise appeared on a large number of patches. However, it has developed a fault which pretty much renders the device useless. I recently acquired an old used XV-5080 which initially appeared to be in great condition.
