"for use with D-50 or D-550 synth Makes all parameters instantly accessible on sliders rather than tedious and limiting editing on the D50 itself. really does transform the D50 into a different animal - since you have instant and visual access to all waveforms, filter, and so on. if you have not used the pg1000 before you will be pleasantly surprised."
