  1. The D-50 is a bigger synth than some people realize. Its a VA with a ton of Roland’s history in it (Junos and JPs are easy), but it can also do some sample-like strings & brass you might not expect. If you have a PG-1000 or the Cloud version, tweak it a little. There’s a lot there that doesn’t yell “D-50!” like ‘Fantasia’ does.
