One of the founders of Midi and founder of Roland has passed away at the ripe old age of 87. I'm actually shocked Roland hasn't made any mention of it.

DSI didn't neglect to mention it on their Facebook page.

I read his autobiography some years ago. He was a fascinating man.

Wonder if we will see a tribute synth next year. Perhaps a partnership between a Roland and DSI?
