Based on Roland’s DCB technology, the Roland D-50 brings the ultimate synthetic sound of the 80s to your tracks in a new way!
Released thirty years ago in 1987, the Roland D-50 Linear Arithmetic (LA) Synthesizer is one of the most influential keyboard instruments ever created. D-50 helped determine the sound of the late 80’s with its instantly recognizable combination of sampled attacks and synthesized waveforms (this is LA!) Plus chorus, reverb and equalizer. This is the basis of classic tracks in a wide range of genres, including Synth Pop, New Wave, New Jack and R & B, and countless movie soundtracks. Thanks to the new Roland D-50 synthesizer DCB Software Synthesizer, Roland Cloud users can have the iconic LA sound in a powerful plug-in that perfectly recreates this legendary synthesizer up to the most subtle nuances!

In case you have missed it, the new Roland D-50 is now available for download as a VST from Roland Cloud. It is unfortunately not a plugout, so it will require a DAW to run. Also, the programming interface resembles the PG-1000 programmer with dozens of sliders, so I don't see how this would work as a plugout.It will require you to download the Roland Cloud Manager, which will run as a resident service on your computer and allow you to install your soft synths.
I have spent a couple of hours playing with the new D-50 for some time now and I am amazed. I used to have the original hardware some 35 years ago, and because of the gruesome interface (without the PG-1000), I never really got beyond the presets. However in the VST, programming is quite simple because of the brilliant fold-out programmer interface. If you just forget about those awfully dated 80's PCM snippets and replace the low-budget sounding onboard effects with something more appropriate, I find this to be a magnificent synthesizer, capable of some truly amazing and perfectly contemporary sounds.
The GUI is now fully rescalable, so it looks pretty even on a large screen. I can just hope that Roland will revisit the previous plugouts too and give them the same eye-candy treatment. One negative observation, even though there is a MIDI learn function, it is per one slider per partial only, so tweaking a full sound on the fly is a bit tricky and will require you to do some clever copying and pasting of CC events in the DAW.
Another thing that surprised me is that quick render (render-in-place) does not seems to work. It will just jumble up the sounds from the partials. You will need to print the audio in real-time, just like with physical hardware, I suppose it is because the code that runs is actually the same code as the real hardware used to run.
I encountered a few audio glitches, like when moving some sliders from the zero point to a value point, and also some random bugs like not all values having names (like the reverb effects), but apart from these minor nuisaces, it seems to be an exact replica of the original.
