Roland D-50

” Roland D-50 D50 LA Linear Synthesizer Synth MIDI 80s classic. Big brother of D10, D110, D20, D05 & MT32, and keyboard version of the D550. I actually owned a D550 with the MEx expansion & programmer (amazing combo).

All keys work. All functions work. I changed the battery and memory was reloaded (see pictures). FYI : “You will need to hold down the data transfer button while hitting the bulk dump or bulk load and press enter. Hold the data transfer button down while pressing the other buttons down or else it wont work. Most D-50 require this and some don’t.” In case you are the auction winner & need to reload sysex files! 🙂

There is a small crack in the case which does effect usage of the 3 buttons to the right of the faders, but is probably a simple fix.

A classic digital synth from the 80s, when we were all younger, and when this and the DX7 ruled the airwaves worldwide.” Click here to search for synths on eBay
