Roland D50 VST software versus hardware shootout | Roland Cloud Legendary Series


Published on Jun 27, 2017 Woody Piano Shack

"Roland Cloud have recently released a software emulation of their Roland D50 linear synthesizer from 1987 as part of their Legendary Series. In this video review we put the Roland D50 VST virtual instrument software plugin up against my original D50 hardware in an audio shootout. This is a proper emulation of the D50 using Roland’s DCB technology, not the Anthology Series sample library that we previously demonstrated. We'll demo and compare the classic preset sounds and patches, such as Fantasia, Future Pad, Soundtrack, Digital Native Dance and more!"

  1. If only I could find a way to import/export sysex libraries, I would be a happy camper. As it is, I think it sounds pretty close to my original D-50 plus it seems to have a few extra waveforms lurking around in there too. Like a lot of people, I'm not too keep on the idea of a subscription model.
