Hi,
As I red your post you all
do not belive that Roland is
capable to realase the new sampler
ans synths.
Please know that the Roland
had between S-760 digital
sampler and the new sampler which shall
be introduced this winter also
some test models including SV-7700
and others which were extensively
used by chief engineer at Roland
sound development by Eric Persing at
sampling and procesing including
the well known saga of sampling
Distorted Reality 2 and other sampling
CD roms of his company
Spectrasonic.
Please know that such machines
could made todays machines
quite obsolete and they could
not be compared with todays conventional
units.
And what is even more interesting
is that the Roland machines which shall be
introduced this winter shall changed
our musical lives forever.
As you all probably allready know
this is the era of VM series Roland
machines which has one unique feature
in common and that is that all machines
are modular.
But not in the way of todays fashion
modulatriations but in the way of realy
usability.
For example all machines have in common
RMDB II connectiors Each RMDB II jack provides 8-in/8-out 24-bit digital audio I/O, yielding 24-in/24-out audio with
a single expansion board.
So you can hook to your new sampler or synth
aditional outputs or inputs all in 24 bit domain.
You can connect via this jacks all
such machines in one real studio
setup which was before imaginable
only in your imagination or some sort
of vituality which is promissed
by a lot of todays companys. Some
of theme were not even able to do
decent controller for such setups
and their sound is nothing revolutionary.
So where ADAT started now RMDB ended.
And Roland listed all new names under
top secret so we could only speculate
what such machines could be named.
Even the guys who develop such machines
sees just blue metal nad nothing more.
And as you all now probably know
the total evolution of the new
machines was necesary to make
history once more as so many times before.
So this hard work took Roland time
to develop machines which are in their
own class and could not compete with
common machines anymore.
As great producers know the Roland
has its own sound, be it JV or JP or
some other machine.
And JP made history as it made also
JV and others.
And I as producer and tester could
say that only Korg Z1 came close
to these machines.
And if someone need superb sound
then there is nothing to beat Roland.
Just play with one JP and you shall
in hours find so many sound opurtunities
that there is nothing else to come close.
And everything is on the tips of
your fingers. But this is allready
history.
Did any one tried to program synth
capabilities of JV and XP synths.
Probably not a lot of people
( I do not mean jut to change waves, but
to play with structures and etc..) .
Because you could easily find out that
this machines are even more powerfull
that JD synths which all started
such saga and looked so amazing
brutal.
You shall be all surprised what you
shall see this winter from Roland.
And you can shall be gratefull to
Roland that they did not release
SV-7700 and other machines at that time
because the new machines shall
make the line between ordinary
machines and Roland so more
obvious.
Best sampling and composing with Roland,
Gorazd.
