The Roland M-DC1 is a rackmount version of the Roland SR-JV80-06 Expansion Card created by Roland and AMG, as part of Roland's Sound Expansion Series of modules. Like other modules in the series, it's very cut down spec-wise and utilizes a very simple 7 segment 3 character LED display.[1]

It takes a lot of its samples from the libraries "AMG - Black II Black" and "AMG - Remix".[2]

Despite not adhering to General MIDI or Roland GS, it does respond to a GS Reset, which will set the unit to Performance 18, which is very equivalent to an INIT patch.
