Dave Smith Instruments OB-6 - "Classic and modern in the same time..."
I've received a request to post a review after I updated my gear list, which I consider all the more normal on a community website like this. First, I must say I’ve only owned the OB-6 for 4 days so…

Roland D-05 - "The D-50 was my all time favorite keyboard, the D-05 reminds me why"
I've never thought much about the boutique series, especially since they're only 4 voice, although I'd consider one of the Juno models. Anyway, when I saw the re-issue of the D-50 I was very excited…
Roland D-05 - "Probably the best in the series"
