Roland Clan Forums

I don't have those migration event errors in my driver for the System-8 on Windows 10. So I don't believe that is the root cause. I still can't import / export patch data to and from the S8 hardware (v1.30) and the S8 plugout (v1.31). And Roland has provided no means in which to downgrade the plugou...

+2 on being able to just sample the ext input directly from the TR-8s.

Having to do it via a computer->SDcard->import is a bit cumbersome and not an effective workflow IMO.

yup, same problem here and reported by a couple other users on the FB group. Roland needs to either release an updated System 8 VST that still supports the 1.30 firmware of the hardware, or they need to release a new firmware for the hardware that supports the v1.31 VST.

Disregard. Figured it out. The new 808 kits in the TR-8S are an updated model from the ones in the TR-8. You can actually call up the old TR-8 808 kit model in the TR-8S and it behaves like the TR-8. The snare model on the TR-8 doesn't have as much decay as the TR-8S snare model does (at max setting...

Ive looked aroubd online and haven't seen any reports of this. I recently picked up a TR-8S to replacr my TR-8. I spent a good bit of time manually recreating some of my patterns (and sound settings) fron the TR-8 to the TR-8s. And I noticed some odd differences in the 808 model. In particular there...

^ Thanks!

Ok, I think I nailed it. And it looks more like a flat out bug. If you have a patch (any patch) in "mono" voice mode, and you hold down a key and then play another key (lowest priority), that note will get cut off immediately if you start changing a parameter. Doesn't matter which paramete...

^ Nice. Glad to see this confirmed working.

I just tested all the plug-outs and they worked beautifully. Thank you Roland! Now, may we hope for a JX-3P emulation, please???? I like all analog synthesizers from Roland. I wish JX-3P/8P, Juno-60/Alpha, Jupiter-4/6 plug-outs. Thanks. I could see them releasing plug-outs for the following synths ...

They've somewhat shot themselves in the foot by having only 1 ACB slot left for expansion. I haven't tried it yet, but I thought I recall reading that you can load other plug-outs into ACB slots 1 & 2 where the JP-8 and 106 exists. They aren't permanently eliminated. They are "hardwired&qu...

The corresponding control lighting for each plug-out works great for me. Don't really see a need for an overlay/template.

Just my 2cents.

Anyone else think this would be helpful? I've had a few instances where I lost a new patch built from the ground up because I accidentally hit one of the preset buttons before writing to memory. Using the "manual" button doesn't provide a good solution since there could be parameters that ...

^ yup, that sounds more like it. Should be an easy fix for them. Just better handling of memory / buffer allocation.

I will post some more details later, but at the moment, it appears that any values above 110-120 for the individual OSC mixer levels starts to get into overdrive/saturation of the filter and starts to change the overall response of the filter, resulting in some nice coloration and "dirt" a...

All good. And it's not soo much an "issue", but more so an annoyance with no real way to visually check your levels internally. Sometimes you want the dirt & grime created from saturation/overdrive, sometimes you don't. And especially not on the master output. Adding some "digital...
