My Very Used Kawai R-50 (Presets)

[FPPBoy0629]

I bought this back in 1988, with a "Kawai K3". What a pair!!! I produced hundreds of songs with just the two and/or bass and guitar. Both are still in my setup even though I have newer (not, never better) gear. They were my first babies, I love them more... Kawai thank you for producing the true loves of my life.

I love that snare sound. Seriously.

I have the standard version of the R-50 (used it for several years, now mostly replaced by my Roland SP-606). The sounds of the "e"-version are a bit better in my opinion (more Simmons-like). There is also a very rare "Mk III" version of this machine. It combines the sounds of the two other machines and in addition it has 24 orchestral drum sounds. The preset patterns of the R-50 contain some famous beats, like "Don't you want me" from Human League and "True Blue" from Madonna.
