All user reviews for the Roland RS-70

The RS-70 is a 5 octave keyboard with floppy drive, a section patch modify to change its sounds live, a sequencer quite handy, 69-voice polyphony, a MIDI OUT, 1 MIDI IN, 1 USB connector (to avoid go through the midi ports) ...
It comes with software edition "Rs editor" I have not unfortunately ...

UTILIZATION

General configuration is very simple! This is my first synth and I had no previous knowledge, but everything is so simple that I do not need it. The editing of sound is using the knobs patch modify "(attack, decay, release, cut off ...). I find only that the sequence is not very practical.
I downloaded the manual by curiosity and yes, it is very clear.

SOUNDS

The sounds are good qualities for pianos, organs, orchestral sounds. The sounds of guitar and electro typ or leads are much worse, but with a little modification and the effects intgrs, you can leave sounds really interesting. The effects are not exceptional but with a little tweaking can leave stuff intressant. Touch is good enough, but you get terribly slack is fast.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a week, I love the sound edition super simple but I expected a little more of leads ... The D-Beam is quite nice but not super precise ... Just for fun ... This synth is perfect for playing a bit of dream theater but do not expect out of sounds leads to the Wirman Janne ... In short, it's a great synth to start but it would be best to pair it with a Korg. On occasion, he really deserves it!
