The 50ct has a parallel port in the back right? If so, you could pick up a parallel zip drive for under $10, and you can transfer to and from that way. Youd need a USB zip drive too obviously to connect to modern pc for backup.
Or you could convert your HD to SSD/CF, so to transfer you just remove the drive and plug into a CF to USB device on a modern pc for transferring.
As for the audio, I believe you have to get an adapter, that allows you to plug into more standard audio inputs.
Also check out this thread, you may find some useful information in there!
I can confirm that I dont have that orchestra hit sound in mine, not that I could find when hitting every possible midi note name. But the drums sound pretty much the same from the video. The sounds on the one I have also include cowbell, shakers, pitched up and down snares/kicks, crashes with various pitch, couple open hats, closed hat, Conga set, Tom set, and like a chromatic short metallic bell tone.
You can also use this to sync a c64 running prophet64 by soldering a cable direct from the din sync port to the user port.
heh, nice!

Which sound bank does this have?
I am not sure? I assumed there was only one factory internal sound set, and then you can expand with cartridges. I didnt know the internal sounds could be changed. Hmmmmmm.
I am selling my Kawai R-100 machine. Everything works 100 percent and sounds great. It is 12-bit and has some nice crunch!!
I have found it to be easier to work with/program with MIDI. You get easier access to more sounds than just what is on the pads themselves. Another nice feature is the 8 individual outputs, so you can get a better real time mix right out of the machine and/or pan the sample accordingly on your mixer. Overall, it sounds great. As for cosmetic condition it has some scuffs, general signs of use, but nothing that effects the performance of the machine. Hit me up if you have any questions!!

Sounds like this:
Roland M-VS1 Vintage Synth Rack
Here is a nice, harder to find, rack synthesizer put out by Roland, the M-VS1. It has 256 patches which are drawn from classic Roland synths such as the JX-3P, Jupiter 8, D-50 and even other synths such as Oberheim, Moog, etc. Overall, it sounds great and you can compose full songs with it since it contains drumkits/sounds as well and is multitimbral.
The cosmetic shape of this M-VS1 is good with some scratches hear and there from use, but nothing that effects performance. There are also 4 small circular felt pads on the bottom of it to protect it from scratching the surface or itself, when its not in a rack. They can easily be removed. The unit works 100 percent as it should and sounds sweet. It comes with a power cord and a laminated sheet with all the patch names/numbers. Please message me for any more questions, thanks!!

This album is my baby. For those who know me, I have a silly love for old computer things, MS-DOS, FM synthesis, etc etc etc. And this album of mine, pretty much portrays all those things.
Being composed on Adlib Tracker II, which runs on MS-DOS 7.1, captures the essence of the "earlier" pc gaming days. I also added synth parts by using an Alpha Juno 1 keyboard. If you are into chiptune/electronic/lofi then this may be a nice jammy album for you to enjoy. If you are fan of the MS-DOS era of gaming and/or FM synthesis, then this is the album for you!!
Real cd's are available to purchase through bandcamp as well. Big ups to enso ( Alex Bond ) on the artwork !!
