"Like its cousin the D-50, it is a digital 'linear synth' with analog filtering. It has all of the vibe, depth and nostalgia of a D50, with more modern editable parameters on the face of the synth - Not to mention the presets are pretty incredible. Great pad machine - ripping leads.
For those in the know, this thing is one of Roland's crowning achievements. However, also those in the know will know that the key-beds were definitely not: they are notorious for the deteriorating red glue that wrecked the beds of every single one over time. This one is no different, however I have carefully removed all of the red glue and attempted to restore the keys to working condition. That being said they still have some issues with velocity sensitivity, and aftertouch. However, those with a midi interface and or keyboard can easily have this thing fully shredding in no time."
