thanks man. I was able to get a hold of roland customer service and got my manual.One thing i wanna say is that these on line stores that sells manuals for electronic music euips are rip offs. As in my case with roland i was only charged $5.50 for a REPRINT(not photocopy) of the manual as opposed to the $20-$30 bucks that these on line merchants are charging for a photocopy.
