They look to be the same software synth, but it's a bit confusing with the naming. Are "Roland Cloud" and "Roland PLUG-OUT" the same thing? 🤔 Should they be merged?

I believe the plug out is hosted by a piece of hardware whereas the cloud is a native vst plugin version. If you remember there was that big roland aira with the green backlit knobs that ran the plug outs awhile back, probably zero latency on that hardware vs the cloud version, same modelling.

EDIT: it's all quite confusing. Did you geta roland rep's card at namm?
