Hi Jon,

Fantastic! I was about to give up on this thing!

It's strange; whilst I can find info on the TX81z and even the DX11, I can't
find any mention of the V-50 whatsoever. But then, as you located, there's a
whole world of people using and obviously reviewing them on Harmony Central!
There's no mention of it in the usual places like www.vintagesynth.com.

Many thanks for your help,

Cheers,

Phil

The V50 was a keyboard version of the TX81z, i.e., 4-Op FM synth,
that 
had a sequencer, disk drive, and maybe some drum samples and/or
effects. It was out in '88 or '89 and was a lame duck competitor to
the 
Korg M1 which ruled the roost in those days. Everybody and his
brother 
produced a workstation as fast as they could back then - just as
everybody has an 'analog' synth in their product line these days ;-)

Here are some reviews at Harmony Central http://www.harmony-
central.com/Synth/Data/Yamaha/V-50-01.html

regards,
Jon
