Roland D-50 boutique - Roland D-05
I'm very excited to mention that Roland will soon be releasing another one of the boutique range of old Roland synths in the form on the classic Roland D-50 and it is 16 note polyphonic just like the original. I cannot wait for this to be released considering I was pissed off that I couldn't purchase the Roland Cloud D-50 VST plugin because it is monthly subscription only.

I was looking forward to iD-50 but no luck this time either...
Yeah I was looking forward to the iD-50 too but according to Roland the iPad isn't powerful enough to use their DCB synth system which I find hard to believe because Korg were able to develop the Wavestation and M1 as an iOS synth.
I'd say that's just pure BS from Roland...
But I'm happy you've at least gotten a reply from from them
DCB is that bull for port.
Still got my 1988 buy, Roland D-20. A scaled down D-50, but with a nice sequencer, diskette and card readers.
One of my cats puked on the keyboard, so I had to disassemble it and clean the components.
I think she did it on purpose
The D-50 has my vote for being the first VA, it's was an amazing time that really started what we use today, FM, VA and Sample Synthesis. Hot on it's heels came the Korg M1, then the Wavestation.
Interested to hear it.
