Critic Reviews

Roland CD5 (SOS May 89)

muzines.co.uk

The Roland CD5 revolutionizes sound library management for S550 sampler users, offering efficient access and storage of vast sound libraries on CD ROM. Its integration allows for nearly instantaneous data retrieval, drastically cutting down time spent searching through floppy disks. However, potential buyers should note that it requires modifications to the S550 for operation and lacks the ability to store user samples, which may deter some. While it functions as a basic CD player, its audio quality is outdated compared to modern standards. Overall, the CD5 is a game-changer for serious users, but it comes with caveats that may not suit everyone's needs.
