Description | The Roland/RODGERS W-50 has a wide range of high-quality sounds with easy-to-use controls. It also offers a great way to create orchestral and ensemble pieces easily. A wealth of Preset Tones and Drum Sets are provided. Whether it be rich organ sounds, strikingly realistic acoustic sounds or synthesized sounds, the W-50 has them • 16-Part Multi-Timbral Capability The W-50 is a 16 Part multi-timbral synthesizer thai is capable of taking full advantage ot MIDI. When combined with a sequencer or computer, it otters a broad range of compositional and performance possibilities. The W-50 is compatible with both the General MIDI System and Roland's GS Format. Any music data that complies with the General MIDI System/GS Format can be reproduced accurately on this unit. The GS Sound Generator produces 28 voices, while the Organ Sound Generator provides another 28 for a total of 56 polyphonic notes. With this many voices at your disposal, you should be able to create some really incredible orchestrations. The W-50 offers a total of four different key modes: Dual, Split, Octavel, and Octave 2. These can enhance the unit's creative possibilities and allow you to add 'fatness' to sounds. The unit's buttons and sliders have all been designed to allow easy access to its sounds and functions. While enhancing operational ease, they allow direct, immediate control over the sound editing process. The PERFORMANCE button can be used to obtain instan- taneous changes in the W-50's settings (a convenient per- formance function). The W-50 is equipped with three sliders which act as MIDI controllers. They allow you to apply real time expression to song data. This feature allows you to mute any part in the perfor- mance data (whether it has arrived at MIDI IN or is played by the SMF Player on the W-50) and then play that part yourself. The W-50 is equipped with an SMF Player which supports Standard MIDI Files. This means that in addition to providing playback of what has been recorded on the W- 50, it can also playback music data created on some other device. |

| Velocity | As with a piano, the harder you hit a key, the louder the sound, unlike most organs which always produce the same loudness no matter how hard you hit a key. | Aftertouch | Pressing a key after you activated it. Channel Aftertouch, no matter which key, it will send a Channel message. Poly Aftertouch, sends the pressure per key instead of the whole channel. |
