That's the D-Beam. It's part of the 555 and Roland throws one in just about everything these days.

Nah, he was talking about the D beam there for sure.

The V-Link matches video-samples based on which pads were struck, if you use keys on the Motion Dive you can control even more. There's a fader so you can do stutter-effects and so on.

Really cool and frankly not even that expensive either!

Mike you need to tell your colleagues over there at Roland that its time for a firmware update to the 555.
