VINTAGE - COMPLETE SYSTEM! Auction includes:

(1) Roland MKS-50 Synthesizer Module (including original manual)

(1) Roland PG300 JUNO 1 or 2 Synthesizer Programmer (including original manual)

Necessary AC cable (MKS-50) and 9v Adapter (PG-300)

Don't miss a rare opportunity to acquire both the MKS-50 AND PG300 together and in mint condition!

I am the original owner of these items, which I purchased new in 1987. All are original vintage Roland items, all in excellent condition aaside from minor "rack rash" around the rackmount holes (understandable after 21 years of faithful service!)
These units have only been used in my smoke-free studios, (never gigged out), are in perfect working order and include hard copy manuals!

ROLAND MKS-50:

The MKS-50 is a rack-mount version of the Alpha JUNO. It has the same synth engine and architecture, with some added features like 16 programmable chord memories, the ability to store velocity, volume, panning, de-tune, portamento and other similar parameters within each patch you create. The optional and highly recommended PG-300 will give you traditional slider type control of all editable tone parameters which include DCO (digitally controlled oscillators) LFO, bend, ENV, pulse, waveforms, noise, PW/PWM, high pass filter, VCF filter with freq/env/res/LFO/kybd, VCA envelope, chorus, and more.

The MKS-50 still a great addition to any techno synth rig. Other features include better MIDI implementation than previous Roland synths, a nice LCD display, an LFO capable of a very slow rate for some cool sweeping effects, and a great bass sound (especially nice for acid basslines) and noise effects!

Some notable users of this synth are Überzone, Astral Projection, Fluke, Future Sound of London, Pet Shop Boys, and Vince Clarke.

ROLAND PG-300 JUNO 1 or 2 Synth Programmer:

What's the point of a programmable techno synth module if you can't tweak it easily on the fly to keep your creative juices flowing?
Enter the PG-300 synthesizer programmer - specially designed fo synthesizing the tone colors of the Alpha JUNO line, including the MKS-50. By employing the PG-300, tone colors can be much more easily and quickly edited and/or created from scratch. Just hook it up according to the manuals, set your MKS-50 to MIDI Channel 1, and off you go to explore new frontiers of techno & trance textures to add to your arsenal.

International Buyers - All shipping costs are final and not to be negotiated at auctions end. While this should be obvious, many of my foreign buyers have tried to persuade me to do these things – I will not. USPS International Priority takes approx. 6-10 business days. Plan on 2 weeks for it to get to you. I bear no responsibility for how long it takes once it leaves the USA. That said, I have never had an international shipment delayed or come up missing in shipping. I will ship to your home address but in many countries the local post office will hold the package for you to come in and pick it up (and pay the duty fees ?). I have no control over this so you must be proactive and check with your post office regularly. Every country’s postal system is different – some are fast – most are slow!

IMPORTANT TO INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS!

I am sorry but I cannot ship to Italy, Spain, France, Portugal, or Africa Countries because I have not had good experiences with shipping services actually delivering the item to the winning bidder in satisfactory condition.

For example: The last 3 times I have shipped electronics or instruments to Spain, Spanish customs has either lost the item, or returned the item to me months later, claiming it to be undeliverable due to contents. This ended up with very diappointed buyers as well as with no refund of the expensive shipping costs to me. I will not deal with this again.

If you live in any of these locations do not bid or it will be necessary for me to cancel your bid.

Thank you.
