Scans of Patches from Roland User Group (late 80s/early 90s)
EDIT:
http://s187.photobucket.com/albums/x30/ ... 20Patches/
I just scanned a bunch of patches from my collection of RUG magazines. There are many patches for MKS-50, MKS-80, Super JX (8p owners can just use one tone at a time) and D-50. There are even a few D-10/20/110, D-70 & JD-800 patches in there. I also scanned a couple of Q&A pages that talked about DIN Sync & S-50 pin configurations.
I've got a bunch of Keyboard, Music Technology & Electronic Musician rags from the same era with patches for others synths (DX, CZ, etc). I'll try to scan them later when I have more time.
Thought I'd share these...

Woah!
Wow!
Thanks a million. I just picked up a MKS-50 a few days back, and I will go try out the patches.
I bet those JX patches are good as well, almost makes me regret selling off the old JX8p.
Thanks again 8)

Yeah, it's cool to watch and listen to a sound evolve from another patch.Bitexion wrote:it's more fun to make sounds than to just load up a new soundbank.
I was trying to find the article about Billy Idol's synth guy for the other thread. I couldn't find that issue, so I just started scanning all these. Some of the rags and in pretty bad shape - especially the older ones.

are these still up somewhere? check out a few of the above pages but couldn't see them - sorry if they are on there and I just overlooked them.

Z,
Thanks for posting these. I'm looking forward to trying out the JD-990 & D-50 patches in a few weeks.

Thanks for the scans. I just picked up a JX8P and I needed some new patches. God bless you!
