The MC 101 looks powerful for its size. All in all, though, I'm surprised they haven't done a full on rack mount / cloud gizmo. One would think it would be right up their alley.

Hey, guys. More and more, it seems like the Roland offerings are essentially hardware wrappers for the Roland Cloud. That being the case, I was wondering if there was some kind of rack mount unit that was also integrated with the cloud. The Integra 7 doesn't appear to be, and I wasn't finding anythi...

Assuming I’m very demanding about acoustic piano sounds, owning a Fantom 7 EX (upgraded) I can’t stand playing piano sounds with its non weighted keyboard. Thus I found a sort of satisfaction driving German Grand via a Studiologic Numa X Piano GT. When I want to obtain maximum results, according to...

Deep knowledge to the ultimate detail is exactly what I need as I go asking for a replacement to my beloved aging Mythos ST... Buchardt A700 ot Golden Ear T66? Thank you. 😀😀😀😀 🎹🎹🎹🎹 Your Mythos are very high end home entertainment speakers, and I'm sure they sound awesome. However, given how you're ...

I think there are both advantages and disadvantages with this. Reuse of software/hardware potentially gives us products that are better tested and matured. And better compability across Rolands product line. I also think Roland have done a great job in how they have implemented the products in Fant...

ChrisDuncan, I appreciate the compliment! Actually, I am a retired major airline captain, and this project is fulfilling a dream I planted when I was a teenager. Great way to get your geek on and enjoy music at the same time. There's a YouTube channel I enjoy called Scott's Synth Stuff. He was a co...

But when you have an idea and start placing tracks, each with a script to filter MIDI channels, then another to select notes, another to add polyphony, another to add delay, another to set length, and another for panning and volume, etc., and finally go and play as a symphonic orchestra by just mov...

Reaper is one of the DAWs I've never used, but from friends who have I think the scripting and customization abilities are among it's greatest strengths. You're certainly enjoying it! :)

I think this was a good choice. In any case, I myself want to get the most out of such a good and expensive synth. If there are any purchases I really regret, it's all the VST plugins I've bought over the past 20 years. Sigh.... You mean VSTs for DAWs ? May I know why ? Hardware is good. Software i...

I think it comes down to music genre, what role the piano has in the music, live versus studio, piano playing skills and of course personal preferences. You're right on the money with this observation. No matter what kind of music we make, our software and instruments exist only to serve the song. ...

The thread may be old but I think it's still relevant since pianos are an important part of many genres. What I've noticed is that the Fantom takes the modeling approach where the Kronos and Yamaha use sampled sounds. There's value to both approaches, of course, and like most things it comes down to...

Hi, Jeff.

Above that range you get into RPN and NRPN, a range of undefined and a few others, so that may be why it's not working as expected.

Here's a list of the CCs and their purpose, which might be of use.

I completely agree. And just to knock on wood, here's hoping things keep on ticking in 2025. After interaction here and other places yesterday, I decided to go ahead and do the EX upgrade. Spending the money was never the issue. Honestly, I was annoyed at the notion of having to pay for a firmware u...

Yeah, that's what I'm getting as well. Thanks, man.

After giving it some thought, it seems to me that the Fantom is now a dead product line. Most significantly, this means that it will likely receive no new OS updates, like any other retired product. This is an assumption to be sure, but it seems a reasonable one. I contacted Roland support asking ab...
