Similar but Superior to the Saturn 09 which can only produce an organ sound. This early Revision 1 Is Built Like a Tank To last, its later incarnations had all plastic keys, with a little moulded lug to retain a short horizontal return spring, the keys on this model are metal backed, with a stout steel plate which attaches to the longer vertically mounted springs. every key has a urethane rubber bumpstop, & employ a more substantial contact system, than the later variants. It is composed of two distinct parts: one ORGAN part and one STRING part. The two parts can be played together or separately. There is also a nice built-in ''ensemble'' effect. The ROLAND RS09 is an ideal string/machine for those who want to enjoy a nice typical synthetic violin sound of the 70', without spending a small fortune on a Solina string ensemble. The Roland RS09 is found in productions such as The Cure, Talk Talk, Simple Minds and aphex twin The unit has STEREO & MONO Outputs, aswell as Headphone Jack, & Organ Raw Signal Out & Gate out. A sustain pedal socket & An Audio IN Socket. This combination of Outlet & an Inlet, make the Unit extremely verstaile as part of a system using other devices."
Any chance of doing any demos representing the cure's sound in Faith, such as Holy Hour, All Cats are Grey & Faith??
