Roland D-550 (D-50) Linear Synthesizer Rack

Since its inception in 1987, Roland D-550 became the main competitor to the Yamaha DX7 because it was easy to use.

By joining 8-bit PCM samples with "LAS" synth-generated sounds, the D-50 is capable of unique and complex sounds. The PCM samples contained the attack transients, while the rest of the sound came from the Linear Arithmatic Synth (LAS) section which sounds very analog, with subtractive-style synthesis and low-pass-resonant filters.

Built-in chorus and (for the first time) digital reverb are also included for giving your sounds space and life! It also has a joystick controller for real-time timbre manipulation. The D-50 is great for new and non-acoustic, percussive, ethereal and beautiful pads & sounds.

Excellent working condition, good visual condition. PSU works on 220V. EU power cord included.
