Roland D-50

The Roland D-50 was one of the most popular synthesizers during the late 1980s. It included subtractive synthesis, sample playback and a set of on-board effects.

Sting occasionally played a Roland D-50 in concert on the Nothing Like The Sun tour between 1987 and 1989. His D-50 was donated to the Hard Rock Cafe in San Francisco, where it remains on display.
