Thank you for purchasing the Roland
XV-3080 synthesizer module.
To feel assured that you understand
and can use all of the XV-3080’s
superior features, be sure to read the
Owner’s Manual in its entirety.
The guide comprises two sections, a
“Quick Start” manual and an
“Owner’s Manual.”
The “Quick Start” manual (this
volume) explains the XV-3080’s basic
functions using examples that are
clear and easy to grasp. Read this
volume first.
In addition to the XV-3080’s basic
operations, the “Owner’s Manual”
provides descriptions of more
advanced uses and applications.
When referring to the Owner’s
Manual, you can find the information
you are looking for by checking the
Table of Contents, and Index in each
page.
Before using this unit, carefully
read the sections entitled: “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS”
(Owner’s manual p. 2), “USING THE
UNIT SAFELY” (Owner’s manual p.
3), and “IMPORTANT NOTES”
(Owner’s manual p. 8). These sections provide important information
concerning the proper operation of
the unit. Additionally, in order to
feel assured that you have gained a
good grasp of every feature provided by your new unit, Owner’s Manual and Quick Start should be read
in its entirety. The manual should
be saved and kept on hand as a
convenient reference.
The XV-3080 can be further expanded with the installation of up to six
optional wave expansion boards (up to two SRX Series boards and four SRJV80 Series boards). Wave data is stored in these wave expansion boards.
Also stored are Patches and Rhythm Sets that use the Wave data from the
wave expansion boards, allowing these to be called up directly for use.
Precautions When Installing Wave Expansion Boards
● To avoid the risk of damage to internal components that can be caused
by static electricity, please carefully observe the following whenever you
handle the board.
❍ Before you touch the board, always first grasp a metal object (such as a
water pipe), so you are sure that any static electricity you might have been
carrying has been discharged.
❍ When handling the board, grasp it only by its edges. Avoid touching any
of the electronic components or connectors.
❍ Save the bag in which the board was originally shipped, and put the
board back into it whenever you need to store or transport it.
● Use a Philips screwdriver that is suitable for the size of the screw (a
number 2 screwdriver). If an unsuitable screwdriver is used, the head of the
screw may be stripped.
● To remove a screw, rotate the screwdriver counter-clockwise. To tighten
a screw, rotate the screwdriver clockwise.
● When installing Wave Expansion Boards, remove only the specified
screws.
● Be careful that the screws you remove do not drop into the interior of the
XV-3080.
● Do not leave the bottom cover in a detached state. Be sure to reattach it
after the Wave Expansion Boards have been installed.
● Do not touch any of the printed circuit pathways or connection
terminals.
● Be careful not to cut your hand on the edge of the installation bay.
● Never use excessive force when installing a circuit board. If it doesn’t fit
properly on the first attempt, remove the board and try again.
2
● When circuit board installation is complete, double-check your work.
Wave expansion boards (SR-JV80 Series and SRX Series; sold separately) are
installed after removing the cover at the top of the unit. Insert SRX Series
boards in the EXP-E and -F slots, and SR-JV80 Series boards in the EXP-A
through -D slots.

What is a Patch?
With the XV-3080, the basic sound component used in a usual performance
is referred to as a “Patch.” A single Patch can be created by combining up to
four different tones. Although a Patch could consist of only a single tone,
using multiple tones allows you to create Patches with more complexity and
vividness. Not only can you get fat, rich sounds by layering sounds using
the internal Patches already available with the XV-3080 as is, you can also
enjoy a high degree of control in creating sounds, for example having
different tones sound depending on the range used, or the strength with
which the keys are played. Furthermore, the XV-3080’s parameters are
arranged in sets for even more effective management of elements used in
editing Patches, including the manner in which sounds are output, control
of the outputs, and effects processing.
Playing Sounds
What is a Tone?
The tone is the smallest unit of sound handled by the XV-3080. Although a
sound could be created using simply one tone, the XV-3080 handles the
sounds used for performances in terms of Patches, which are a combination
of a number of tones. In other words, tones are the components of sound
from which Patches are composed.
What is a Category?
The XV-3080’s sounds are organized into Categories, depending on their
characteristics. The XV-3080 features 38 Categories divided into 10 Category
Groups.

- When the [INC] / [DEC] button is held down continuously, the value stops
at the top (001) of the current bank (A-H). To advance to the next bank,
release the button then press it again.
Switching Modes
In addition to Patch mode, the XV-3080 also features three other modes:
Performance mode, Rhythm Set mode, and GM2 mode. Let’s try switching
the modes and listen to the sounds in each one.
You can easily switch modes simply by pressing the MODE button
(PERFORM/PATCH/RHYTHM/GM) for each mode.
fig.17.e
18
PERFORM (Performance Mode)
This mode is selected when using the XV-3080 as a multitimbral sound
module, and when changing performance settings. In Performance mode,
the XV-3080 can also be used as a multitimbral sound module under the
control of an external MIDI device.
PATCH (Patch Mode)
This mode is selected when using a single Patch in performing on the
Page 19
keyboard or changing Patch settings. In Patch mode, the XV-3080 can also
be used as a single-Patch sound module controlled with an external MIDI
device.
RHYTHM (Rhythm Set Mode)
This mode is selected when playing Rhythm Sets with a keyboard or when
changing Rhythm Set settings. As with Patches, the XV-3080 can also be
used as a sound module for playing individual Rhythm Sets when
controlled with an external MIDI device. XV-3080 Rhythm Sets can be used
in any part in a Performance, and you can also make settings for the multieffects used for the Rhythm Sets.
GM (General MIDI2 Mode)
General MIDI is a set of recommendations which seeks to provide a way to
go beyond the limitations of proprietary designs, and standardize the MIDI
capabilities of sound generating devices. Sound generating devices and
music files that meet the General MIDI standard bear the General MIDI logo
Playing Sounds
(). Music files bearing the General MIDI logo can be played back using
any General MIDI sound generating unit to produce essentially the same
musical performance.
The upwardly compatible General MIDI 2 () recommendations pick up
where the original General MIDI left off, offering enhanced expressive
capabilities, and even greater compatibility.
Issues that were not covered by the original General MIDI
recommendations, such as how sounds are to be edited, and how effects
should be handled, have now been precisely defined. Moreover, the
available sounds have been expanded. General MIDI 2 compliant sound
generators are capable of reliably playing back music files that carry either
the General MIDI or General MIDI 2 logo.
In some cases, the conventional form of General MIDI, which does not
include the new enhancements, is referred to as “General MIDI 1” as a way
of distinguishing it from General MIDI 2.
What is a Performance?
With Performances, you can combine a total of up to sixteen separate
Patches and Rhythm Sets to enjoy ensemble performances featuring rich
tones. In other words, using Performances allows you to control sixteen
separate tones with a single XV-3080. A sound module that can
simultaneously produce multiple sounds is called a multitimbral sound
module.
19
Page 20
Playing Sounds
What is a Rhythm Set?
Rhythm sets are groups of a number of different percussion instrument
sounds. Percussion sounds are not generally used in performing melodies,
so it is immaterial that they cannot be played at different pitches on the
keyboard. However, it is important that, as much as possible, a number of
percussion instruments perform together. Therefore, the Rhythm Sets are
set up so that you can get different sets of percussion sounds by pressing
different keys (note numbers).
Selecting Sound Libraries
On the XV-3080, tone data is stored in what are called “SOUND LIBRARY.”
There are four separate sound library groups: USER, CARD, PRESET, and
EXP.
You can easily select the desired group simply by pressing the SOUND LIBRARY button (USER/CARD/PRESET/EXP) for each group.
fig.18.e
USER (User Memory)
This is the XV-3080’s group of internal rewritable tones. Save the tones that
you create to this library.
CARD (Memory Card)
Select this group to use the tones stored on SmartMedia inserted in the card
slot.
PRESET (Preset Memory)
This is the XV-3080’s group of internal read-only tones.
EXP (Wave Expansion Board)
Select this group to use the tones stored on wave expansion boards (SRX
Series, SR-JV80 Series; sold separately) inserted in the EXP-A through -F
slots.
To select an installed wave expansion board, press the [A]–[F] button.
The EXP-A through EXP-D slots are for cards from the SR-JV80 Series. The
EXP-E and EXP-F slots are for SRX Series boards.
CARD can be selected only
if a formatted memory card
is inserted in the MEMORY
CARD slot.
It is not possible to select
EXP unless a wave
expansion board is inserted
into the corresponding slot.

Having Different Patches Play In
Separate Ranges of the Keyboard
(Split)
In a Performance, by selecting the same MIDI receive channel for a number
of parts and then changing the pitch range over which each part is to be
played, you can thus divide the keyboard into separate ranges and assign a
different Patch to each range. This is referred to as a Split.
The split is one application of the layer technique (Playing Multiple Layered
Patches). The split works by changing the sounding range of each patches of
the layered parts.
Now, try a creating a split using Performance “PR-B:29 Organ/Lead.”
