I have a D-550 and a M1R and found I don't need a DX7. With these two you have it all...really!

The D-550 and the JD-990 are the two Roland modules that any synth collector/player must have in their setup.

Hallo, du konntest mir schon einmal helfen. Vielleicht jetzt wieder? Mir gefallen die Klänge vom D550 auch gut. Habe einen JD 800. Die Sounds klingen für meine Ohren z.T. ähnlich. Gibts Ähnlichkeiten zwischen beiden Synthies oder ist der D550 ein ganz andere Kiste? Ich danke dir schon mal für die Antwort. Grüße Ino

Also gemeinsam haben die beiden Synths, dass sie ziemlich eigenständig klingen.
Der D550 klingt rauher, rauschiger und längst nicht so hifimäßig wie der JD. Der JD ist ein Rompler und der D50 erzeugt seine Klänge mit digitalen Oszillatoren und kurzen Attack Samples.
Deshalb ist der Klangcharakter ein anderer aber nicht weniger interessant. Check doch mal mein letztes D50 Review auf Amazona Punkt DE

Yeah,i have my D-550 about 24 years ago in my rack.
for me the 550 have one of the best digital filters ever,
it breathes so nice when it closed:)
and the two waveforms/pulse and saw are very organic
keep it on :)

I love my D-550, just wish it sounded as nice as this though, great programming.
