manual for the pc-180a shows a date of 1984 for the copyright of "midi controller"

but i believe some were reproduced in 1995 as the manual makes reference to The Roland GS format which was introduced in 1991

The Roland PC-180 ia midi keyboard controller. it does not contain any sound-generating circuitry, since it is designed to provide for the convenient transmission of program change and bank select messages as well as a variety of other MIDI messages (such as reverb + chorus information) to an external sound module
