Re: 10 Worst Keyboards

2007-11-30 by Berington Van Campen

I thought Gummo was something you use to clean your carburetor!

Actually, I've got a D-50 with all the sound cards available at the 
time, and it's been a workhorse with a few VERY decent sounds and 
others, such as some of the strings, that actually can help enhance 
or smooth out the Mellotron tracks! But I'd agree it's very 
frustrating that it's not multi-timbral. Didn't realize that till I 
got it home. Lost LOTS of potential usefulness due to only-one-sound-
at-a-time performance. THAT was a BIG mistake by Roland. Huge. Unless 
it was pre-planned to "hold" buyers until they could snag 'em with  
new multi-timbral instruments. They got ME.

Anyway, cheers to all on the new board, and all the best to you all.
