Sound card set composed of the D5504-01 data card and W5504 waveform card. Expands the SY/TG55 with 64 new patches, 14 new multi setups, and 6 new waveforms. The focus of this card set is brass, but we can also find great organ and guitar patches.

| C02 | fpTrpts | Trumpets with volume and MW filter controls. | |
| C03 | Trpts | Lip trumpet sound | |
| C04 | SoftTps | With filter control on MW. Good sound when MW is used. | |

| C07 | PowHigh | As above an octave up. | |
| C08 | Tp+MWTs | MW calls up more players. | |

| C10 | fpTenrs | MW high-filters the sound. | |
| C11 | SfzTnrs | Tenor saxes with sforzando effect. | |
| C12 | SoftTns | Yet another sax section sound - well, the name of this card is Brass Section, after all. | |
| C13 | TpORTns | Trumpets or tenors determined by the MW. | |
| C14 | Tp/Tn | Tenor and trumpets split. | |

| C23 | ?pcComb | Vibraphone, brass and a ride cymbal. | |
| C24 | 3pcComb2 | Contrabass, brass and a ride cymbal. The nicest combo of the three. | |
| C25 | ClickHmd | Voices 25-32.mp3 | B3 sound with key click and slow rotor effect. |
| C26 | ElecGtr | Uninspiring electric guitar. | |
| C27 | Mtd Gtr | Muted guitar with too much delay. | |

| C42 | Trmb->S | Same with trombones. | |
| C43 | SoloSax | Good to play the Pink Panther theme. | |
| C44 | FlglPad | Good Flugelhorn but why so much oscillator pitch bending? | |

| C46 | TwnCrch | Very nice small town church organ sound. Filter's on the MW. | |
| C47 | BriPipe | Great pipe organ sound. | |
| C48 | FanfBrs | A fanfare sound shouldn't have this much reverb. | |

| C61 | Tines | Dreamy Rhodes sound but the tremolo intensity is too much. | |
| C62 | AnalSet | This is not an enema kit, rather a Simmons/808 style drum set. | |
| C63 | DancSet | Good, punchy drum sounds. | |
| C64 | AcDrSet | More drum sounds, jazz style. |
