Compare both music packs and then pick the version that you like most. However, you shouldn't decide that based on the specifications of the devices but rather on which sounds you prefer. Which Music Pack should I use? The SC-55 Music Pack or this one? Not long after I was inspired to arrange these music packs so that others can also have an alternative to the Roland SC-55 Music Packs, which offer the same high quality. After some research I came across the Roland SC-D70, which I bought mid-2018. So I came to the conclusion that I simply should get another Sound Canvas device. I was rather looking for something that reached the quality of the SC-55 and was also as well-balanced. I could have used soundfonts, but they are often imbalanced between different instruments (e.g. There are many songs that just sound great with the Roland SC-55 but there are also a few songs that, in my opinion, don't sound quite as impressive. So why these Music Packs with the Roland SC-D70? In order to listen to songs other than the packs he uploaded I decided to buy the module myself, which I did at the end of 2017 and I have to say that I really like it. I listened to the music packs from MusicallyInspired (Brandon Blume), which were recorded using the SC-55. I didn't get to enjoy a Roland SC-55 back in the days.

Another reason for the popularity nowadays is the nostalgic feeling for those who actually owned a Roland SC-55 back in the day. With it you could hear the music as the composers heard it - the way it was meant to be heard. Many game composers used the Roland SC-55 as a reference module to create their music (e.g. History The Roland SC-55 was the must-have sound module of the nineties.
