"The DS-50 has 49 keys, 7 basic sounds, an accompaniment section enabling backing tracks to be used, and a great drum machine with 8 different rhythm styles.
Main three solo sounds are
Harpsichord
Marimba
Vibes
There are also four sliders labelled Flute 8' (8 Octave?), Flute 4', Oboe and Violin, and these can be used to adjust the tone and waveforms of the 3 main sounds, or be used to make replications of the appropriate sound e.g. Oboe.
There is also a Vibrato slider to adjust the sounds, a great little effect.
On the accompaniment section there is a Strum/Arpeggio feature which allows strum effects or bass Arpeggios to be played by the machine itself, using the Auto Play or 1-Finger buttons. This allows for great basslines to be played on the bottom 12 notes while leaving the rest of the keyboard for the Solo sound. There is also a 1-Finger chord button, and Record/Playback buttons.
On the Rhythm section there are 8 rhythm styles:
Country/March
Waltz
Swing
Ballad Rock
Disco/Rock
Bossa Nova
Rhumba
Samba
The Rhythm section has Tempo and volume adjust sliders, and has Start/Stop and touch control (pause) buttons."
