If you´re looking for the cards released by Roland in the 80's but can't find them, or afford them. Maybe you just want to have a little preview of the sounds before you invest in a real card. This is the video for you!
Pekka Grönfors is a guy who has made a great program to send the cards via sysex to your Roland D50.

Thank you for showing my program. A very good review. I have also made a Web MIDI version of this program that will work on all platforms directly from a web page with a web browser that supports Web MIDI API.

@synthfellow 2 года назад

It is me who should say thank you for your effort! Great program! Thank you! Feel free to share the link here! :)

Hi Pekka, is your Web MIDI App for the D50 available for people to download or buy? If so where can I find it please? Thanks. Iain.

Set up D-550 to recieve SYSEX Press TUNE. Select Protect with the white single right arrow button and set it to OFF. Press EXIT. Press and hold down DATA TRANS. Select B.Load with the white single right arrow button and then press ENTER. Release the DATA TRANS button. The display should now show "Are you sure?". Press ENTER to confirm.

Hello, ROLAND? THIS is why you should incorporate Sysex into your Boutique synths! Thanks for sharing this.

@synthfellow 2 года назад

Great point!

@trevorwoodley3897 10 месяцев назад

this is why they should also do re-issues of old synths. D-05 is fine, but an actual D-50 re-issue would be wicked.

Hello, I need to change the battery too. Bit I'm not sure if I will lose all the midi sounds that are added on the keyboard. Any idea?

Hypersynth's HCARD-750 for the Roland D-50 is another option. You can copy any SysEx files (up to 4096 presets) on single card.

@synthfellow 2 года назад

Hypersynth HCard is fantastic. And they make em for other synths too :)

@anonymous_friend Год назад

Do you think HCard contains the same patches as the roland cards?

@Vangelismusic1 11 месяцев назад

Nice! but they want too much money for it,€ 259.50 that's crazy I can probably find a D550 for that much.

@stefpir 9 месяцев назад

@MrBassman91 Месяц назад

Hi Brilliant video thanks. Ive just purchased a D50 with a flat internal battery for a bargain price, so I'll definitely be trying this. I have two questions - is the internal Eprom memory in the D50 big enough to hold all the .syx files from the cards?, or do you have to load a card 'as and when' you want to use a particular card, I'm guessing not - as is the memory overwritten each time you load a new card? Also, can you recommend/link a USB to MIDI interface cable that works with the D50 & this software (I know alot of the cheap ones dont work) Thank you in advance

@synthfellow Месяц назад

You can only transfer one card at a time. And I use a E-mu usb to midi cable.

@matthewgaines10 Год назад

If I had a D-50 and had to have the cards, I get the D-05 and get all the cards and D-05 unique content. It is sysex compatible with the D-50 and D550. Since I don’t have a D-50, I accepted the D-05 as a acceptable substitute.

@synthfellow Год назад

I have never come across the D-05 but what I hear one this tube it’s close to the OG.

Greetings from Norway 😊 I just bought a Roland D-50 and it sounds amazing. But I would also like to achieve this. How do you connect the synthesizer to the PC? Appreciate an explanation 😁 Do you have to have an interface with midi in/out? I have tried with a cheap one from ebay, with midi connectors at one end, and usb at the other. I get it up and running, but the PC can't send over to the synth, it just says waiting....

@synthfellow 4 месяца назад

Be aware of cheap USB to Midi adapters! If i rember the one i used was a E-Mu midi to usb-adapter.

@phi368 Год назад

can you also save custom patches via usb to pc? or is the roland memory card required?

@synthfellow 11 месяцев назад

It’s been a while since I used it but I think it can be done

@synthfellow 4 месяца назад

@JohnPaulCamposHohnerAnacleto 10 месяцев назад

What interface do you need to have between your computer and the D50 to accomplish this?

@synthfellow 10 месяцев назад

A usb to midi cable. But stay away from the cheap ones on eBay. Mine is made by E-Mu systems but anything will work.

@crhkrebs 2 года назад

SynthFellow, I'm confused about your instructions for a SysEx transfer, especially with the "Press the Split Point button" part. Maybe it's different with my D-550? Pressing and holding Data Transfer gives a menu showing "B Dump B Load Int>Crd Crd>Int". You move the left and right cursor to make your selection. This is where you get "Are you Sure?". Worked for me for years. Is this something on the keyboard version?

@synthfellow 2 года назад

I haven't had the opportunity to do this on the D550 but since the layout of buttons is different I guess that the way you describe it is the correct way. If anyone else who reads this knows something about it you're welcome to comment on this :) Do you mean it doesnt work for you?

@pekkagronfors7304 2 года назад

@synthfellow 6 месяцев назад

What sysex program do you use for datatransfer? I use MidiOx and perhaps you should try to change buffersize?

@juniper4404 Год назад

How do you use the card? I got one for Christmas and it doesn't do anything when I insert it.

@synthfellow Год назад

Just instert it and press the button named "card". Then you can choose the sounds on the card.

@RaffiDonerian Месяц назад

I have a question. If i need to change the battery of my D 50, do I lose the sounds that were added on my keyboard through a card?

@synthfellow Месяц назад

Yes I believe you will. And the internal sounds too.

@RaffiDonerian Месяц назад

@@synthfellow thank you for your reply. So if I save all internal and midi sounds on a memory card, that will be the solution?

@synthfellow Месяц назад

@@RaffiDonerian if you got the possibility so yes. But then again. You could use sysex and Pekka’s little program with all the cards. ;)

@@RaffiDonerian ah of course!

@egassi1027 11 месяцев назад

I'm hoping you will know the answer to this. I changed the battery in my room d50 and it does not hold the sounds in its memory. Occasionally it says check internal battery even though I know it's brand new and working I tested it. The battery is held securely in its slot. Any ideas?
