Roland D-110

The D-110 was Roland's prosumer version of the MT-32 or a rack version of their D-10 budget synth depending which way you look at it. It's an 8 part multi- timbrel PCM synth driven by Roland's LA Synthesis first launched with their top selling flagship D-50

The 1988 D-110 is the rack version of the D-10 synth (a reduced version of the D-50) costing around £589 GBP on release. The D-110 found it's way into thousands of studio setups offering as it did classic Roland D-series sounds, multi-timbrel functionality & stereo L/R plus 6 multiple outputs, meaning this little gem can deliver multiple parts on their own outputs for mixing into compositions, making it very bang-for-buck.

Additionally the D-110 could address different presets by keyboard split note-range as well as by traditional MIDI channel assignment & presets could be layered. The D-110 also included an onboard digital reverb offering a variety of reverb & delay effects.

You can also get the PG-10 programmer unit for more hands on tweaking, often they are sold together. A great unit for thumping house basses, pads, strings & much more.
