“Roland MSQ-100 Midi Sequencer / Midi to DIN sync.
In good shape, some scratches and a little residue from a sticker I removed (which you can see in the one picture), but nothing major.
Step and Real Time sequencing of MIDI keyboards/drum machines. I used it with my Juno-106 to great results.
These units can also be used to sync gear with DIN connections to computers or MIDI gear. (such as: TR-606, TR-808, TR-909, TB-303)
I’ve tested the sequencing capabilities but I have no gear that uses DIN.
Comes with a power adapter.” Link
“Letting go of my MSQ-100 sequencer..
If you are viewing this then you probably know what it can do.
Comes with Power Supply” Link
” This unit is untested and sold as is. No PSU included. It seems to power up OK using a generic Boss-type 9v adapter. For the collector it would go nicely with Juno-106 or similar. Assuming you can get it to work OK, you might find it useful to mix DIN sync and MIDI gear.” Link
“I have for sale a vintage Roland MSQ-100 MIDI sequencer with DIN sync. I have used it for sequencing entire songs, and I also used it for synching old DIN sync gear like the TB-303, MC-202, TR-808, etc. This is a great inexpensive way to sync your old Roland DIN sync gear to your computer using a MIDI interface. I use Ableton Live and with the MSQ-100 I can sync my old non MIDI gear. It is essential for this purpose, but dont forget about the built in sequencer, it works too!” Link
“This sequencer is in good working and cosmetic condition. It is typically used with a Roland Juno 106, which works great together, but I have also tried with newer synths, like a DSI Evolver, which works as well. All features work great and all buttons and knobs work as well. ” Link
“I’m not sure what this is. I believe it worked with a Roland VS-1680 that was with it. I found it at my church, but have no use for it. It has no cabling or documentation. I feel pretty sure it works.” Link
“Verkaufe einen Klassiker aus den 80ern:
ROLAND MSQ 100
Es handelt sich um den Sequenzernachfolger des Roland JSQ 60. Meines Erachtens aber viel besser, da mit Midi flexibler und auch für andere Synthies optional. Wurde 1984 optinal für den Roland Juno 106 hergestellt..
Ebenfalls besteht die Möglichkeit über DIN SYNC (Roland TR 808/TB 303) ältere Geräte über Midi zu synchronisieren.
Mit Original Roland Netzteil und Original Anleitung (owners manual english). Sehr guter gebrauchter Zustand, nur minimale Gebrauchsspuren. Fast wie neu.Technisch soweit ich es prüfen konnte alles o.k.
Trotzdem ausdrücklich keine Garantie und Rücknahme möglich.” Link

In this auction are 2x MSQ-100s. Please not that ONE WORKS, AND THE OTHER DOES NOT. I used the one that works for a MIDI to DIN converter. I never used it as a squencer as there are certainly much better sequencers these days. I didn’t ever bother to figure out how the sequencer part of the unit works, so I cannot say for sure that it works.
That’s why I’m including the second MSQ-100 in this auction. This second MSQ has had parts taken off of it. In particular, it’s missing the MIDI and DIN jacks and the knob. But all the other parts are there, including all the rare chips, so if necessary, you will likely be able to keep the 1st one going with parts from the 2nd one. Also note that the buttons on the MSQ are the same size and color as those on the Juno 6, 60 and 106 and others such as the CR drum machines, so some of these parts can be used in other vintage Roland machines as well.
Comes with a universal adapter.” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.

“This is a classic Roland MIDI sequencer from the 80′s. Why is it cool? Because you can use it as a MIDI to DIN sync converter. That’s why I had it. Not sure if it all works the way it’s supposed to because all I did was load it full of blank sequences each time and sync my CR-8000 to my computer. Worked like a charm. Should work with TB-303 and other DIN sync only devices like the 606 as well.
Cheap way to sync old to the new. What you see is what you get. No power supply. The power supply I used goes to one of my other units, but it uses a standard readily available Roland/Boss PSA power adapter found just about everywhere. Manual is available for download free from Roland.” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.

Der MSQ100 ist zum einen ein einfacher und intuitiver Midi-Sequencer und zum anderen ein hervorragender DIN SYNC Konverter für zB. ROLAND TR-Maschinen.
Um eine Tr-808, 606 oder den TB-303 – ohne Modifikationen – in ein bestehendes Midi Setup integrieren zu können, ist der MSQ-100 die erste Wahl.
Dabei kann die Maschine als Master als auch Slave laufen, da jeweils SYNC In | SYNC OUT und das MIDI Trio IN OUT und THRU vorhanden ist.
Der MSQ-100 ist in ROLAND-typischer Qualität in einem schweren Metallgehäuse untergebracht. Auch rein optisch macht er sich natürlich neben einem JUNO-106 bestens.
Das Gerät funtioniert tadellos und ist in sehr schönem Zustand. Ein Netzteil ist nicht dabei.” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.
“Many people have 808′s or 303′s sitting around in their midi studios and don’t know how to use them. they tried a midi cable, but nothing happened, so they assumed their device was broken and sold it cheap (ouch!) or just left it there to collect dust. there are a number of ways to convert midi beat clock to DIN SYNC clock. Without a hardware sequencer, I wouldn’t be able to run my sh- 101, the 303, the 909, or the 808, but if a new device simply used to sync up gear is over your current budget, here are some secrets i’ve tried: the Roland MSQ100 2 track keyboard recorder. it’s a simple sequencer, BUT, it’s got a midi input and a din sync output! you can score one of these second hand for next to nothing.
The reason it continues to have resale value today it because it can be used to sync MIDI devices with older Roland DIN Sync devices. I.e. it will make your 303, 606 or 808 play with your MIDI rig without the need to mod said precious box.
This has the correct Roland/Box power supply, so no need to worry about that. If you do need a manual, there are various sites that have PDF’s of the original manual and some people that have tricks/tips on how to best use this.” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.
