Azrael, I'm considering getting one of the XV series Roland MIDI processors (along with a Roland Midi pickup and the GI-20), but I am unsure of whether I should get the XV2020, XV5050, or XV5080. The prices are as follows-

XV2020- $600
XV5050- $800
XV5080- $1400

I plan on using MIDI a decent amount, both live, in the studio, and at practice; I'm just curious what the difference is from a musicians perspective (The Roland website doesn't put it in the best terms). Thanks-
