      @pihermoso11 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Yeah the DX7 and Roland D50 basically shaped the 80s keyboard sound, everybody used the DX7 and Enya used the D50 quite extensively..
      I'm impressed by the EMU Emulator II, when it came out it was as expensive as a car, but that keyboard just produces a full luscious sound even modern gear will have a hard time replicating, floppy disks FTW, that keyboard was also featured in the movie 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off'
