Legowelt x the Roland D-05 Linear Synthesizer.
What it is:
64 official Roland D-05 patches from Legowelt.
How we use it:
Breathe new life into the boutique series D-05.
Why it's cool:
Roland brings you top-tier sounds from one-of-a-kind synthesist Legowelt. Legowelt, a.k.a Danny Wolfers, is a one-of-a-kind synthesist who has created his own musical path that does not align with genres nor tradition. All Legowelt productions are filled with head-turning moments only capable through his wizardry of all things synthesizer.
We had the pleasure of sharing with him the Roland Boutique D-05 Linear Synthesizer - a compact reproduction of the Roland D-50 from the late 1980s, one of the most influential synthesizers ever produced.
In a matter of days, Legowelt had created a bank of 64 Artist Patches that could only come from his unique, creative space. This bank is a mix of punchy, percussive patches (suited to the D-05 in-built sequencer and arpeggiator) with dreamy, ambient pads to suit anything from deep techno to lo-fi hip-hop.
These patches have been made available for free for all Roland Boutique D-05 users. Click on the link below to download and add to your own sounds.
