"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."

"It came out in mid/late 70s (pre-MIDI) and features some control over the synth sounds plus a built in drum machine. It is missing one of the knobs. The auto-accompany can be turned on or off and split at the keyboard (rhythm vs melody). There's a built in speaker but it can be bypassed using the audio outs. This makes it easy to implement in your home studio. They really built instruments to last in the 70s. The DS-50 is made of metal and really well constructed. Original power cord is included."

You can find a demo of one posted here.

"In great physical shape, includes original power cord and music sheet stand.


“Volume” and “Mic” pots are a little scratchy but overall everything sounds great and appears totally functional except for the following which I’m unable to test —


~ “Program Record” section (can’t find a manual online and can’t figure how to use this)

~ “EXP.” input (don’t have an expression pedal to test this)

~ “DC12V input (not aware of the function of this additional power input.. maybe it is utilized for the “Program Record” section???)


LOCAL PICKUP ONLY — located near the Salt Lake City / Northern Utah area"
