Guest dnoyes Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 I can pick one up really cheap at the p-shop $200.00.Anyone have any experience messing about with one of these? ive found some demos that seem to indicate it has capabilities for decent sound creation- quality strings and lush pads really stood out when i listened to mp3 demos.Some one convince me just a little so i can buy it.. hardware junkie buying phase Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/23198-roland-d-50-synthesizer/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

pylonbitch Posted July 6, 2007 Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 i disagree. the roland d series is really fucking limited because all the sounds are based on digital samples. (digital native dance anyone lololol.) you'd be better with a midid analogue, or a dx7. just my twopenn'orth.

pylonbitch Posted July 7, 2007 Report Share Posted July 7, 2007 (edited) i never said it was a bullshit rompler. ok so i made a mistake as regards the style of synthesis. i still don't like the d50, and digital native dance is an example of the stupid useless sounds that come with it. so yeah, i stand by my 'lololol'. stupid ass sound. i hope you enjoy it however. 200 quid though?

Guest iep Posted July 8, 2007 Report Share Posted July 8, 2007 d50 is an excellent synth, very deep & programmable. nice fuzzy wooly sound too for a late 80s-era massproduced digital synth. 200$ is a great price btw Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/23198-roland-d-50-synthesizer/#findComment-485846 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your not supposed to use the presets,you simply make your own.. you have to remember the time that the synth was produced.... and its not 200 quid.. i paid $200 Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/23198-roland-d-50-synthesizer/#findComment-489168 Share on other sites More sharing options...
pylonbitch Posted July 12, 2007 Report Share Posted July 12, 2007 ah i see. 200 bucks is better than 200 quid. i might pay 200 dollars for one. i know when it was made.. i wanted one soooo badly at the time. bought a second hand dx7s and never looked back.
