Just save money 'till you have €250 (here is the same problem)

Yes it is quite easy to find on the secondhand market and for low prices. It is deffinately high on my wishlist, also because it gives me opportunities for other powerful sounds analogs or VA's can't do.

[Jarp2600]

It's indeed one of the few digital synths on my wishlist. But the D50 has such warm sounds!

How much repairs (and cleaning) of D50 cost? I found one on Finnish site, and it comes with pg1000.

(couple of the buttons doesn't work and one of the keys has a problem.

There are no price set, so I can make any offer if I want to.

[Jarp2600]

First try if you can repair it yourself. If it turns out you can't, it will cost about €50 I think (30 for research and the rest for new buttons and service)

[jp8000]

I think that if I buy it, I'll give it to somebody, who can fix it. (It is easier for me)

[Jarp2600]

So where are you waiting for? Catch that bargain!

[Nico_Noyau]

It is easy to fix these problems, I did it myself and it was the first time I was opening a synth

What's the price ?

[Jarp2600]

Nobody did a bid, so he decides the price

[jp8000]

Price is unknown, there is just a message "make an offer"

(sent him a PM)

[Nico_Noyau]

It is on eBay ?

[jp8000]

It is on eBay ?

no

[Vieon]

Thinking of buying a D50 for sale near me - how would I go about loading all the Jarre-esque patches onto it?

Sorry for the n00b question

[Jakob BC]

I think you can do it by MIDI sequencers like Cubase, but there is also a few Manager programs out there made especially for the D-50.

The D-50 owners can tell more about this.

Dear friends,

I just receive a D-50 !!

I think of having made a good bargain since I have exchanged it against a Korg DW-8000 ...

Today, I will try to send/receive some SysEx.

This machine sounds really powerfull by the way ... I prefer it than the D-550 am I crazy ??
