Status: NEW OLD STOCK, SOLD
You are looking at our NEW OLD STOCK Roland MSQ-700 MIDI/DCB Multi-track Digital Keyboard Recorder/Sequencer. Purchased by us, M.E.S. Music Equipment Sales Ltd. as an authorized Roland Dealer, in the mid 1980's, this MSQ-700 was never sold. It has been sitting on a shelf in out warehouse for about 20 years. As you might expect, it is very clean. I would rate it a 9 out of 10. Built in Roland's Japanese factory, the MSQ-700 is from an era where steel was the preferred construction material and the design was service technician friendly. The top hinges up and all circuit parts and components including the back-up battery are easy to get to and easy to work on.

The MSQ-700 is compatible with such MIDI keyboards as the Roland JUPITER-6 or JX-3P and with DCB instruments like the JUPITER-8 and JUNO-60. It is also able to sync with the Roland DRUMATIX, the BASSLINE, the TR909 RHYTHM COMPOSER, the MC-202 or the MC-4.

Roland MSQ-700 Features

Notable as the world's first MIDI compatible sequencer to accept all MIDI information including pitch, velocity, MIDI channels, patch memory changes, hold function and bender operation.
