The Roland JV series is a line of PCM ROM sample-based (ROMpler) synthesizers, mostly in sound module form, produced by Roland from 1992 onwards. While containing similar underlying synthesis technology to the prosumer Roland Sound Canvas series, they target a more professional market, with most models being full-width rack units, and having a focus on high-quality, fully-editable multi-layer synth patches and expandability, and less of a focus on multitimbrality. Some units have basic General MIDI support, but none have Roland GS support.

It was succeeded by the Roland XV series, which made each layer of a patch stereo and switched from 32kHz to 44.1kHz sampling.
