Can you try this on your Audya

Hi, All,

Is this new fault or does someone know about it.

Set Audya using only drawbars, nothing else, set the style to start and start to play, then press the left voice whilst playing and tell what happens when you do this.

Tony

my wife start to screaming

Tell us, what happens when you do it?

Doing what you say, pressing left voice while in drawbars takes me out of drawbars and into some GM piano sound. right?
BTW Tony you got mail.

Skude thats right you get a prize, just another fault from the dream team Ketron Audya, I was playing a gig last night full power Whiter Shade Of Pale, one hell of a big intro pressed the left voice to add a bit more power and bang lost the Hammond and went straight to Grand Piano. Well spotted Tony Hughes and seconded Skude, I did't hear my wife screaming, did you Skude!!!

Regards

Thats the worst Ketron bug on ALL of their instruments, SD5, SX3000, XD9 and Audya.
Its one of the biggest reasons that i would never choose one to play live.
When you select a voice, god for bad you touch some other conrol, changes everything.
I tested it on all of the above machines and confirmed it, it is there as you say.

is this something KETRON is aware of?

did they fix it in OS3? sounds like a very big bug

AJ?

nedim,

I only found it yesterday, how many more are they, I have had the KB for 4 months

LeeZone,

Are ketron aware of anything

Look, no offense guys, but when the G70 first came out, we had a VERY organized Bug Forum at the old G70 Users Club (now Roland-arranger.com site) where we posted ALL known bugs, step by stepped them to be sure there was a repro, and waited for the fix to come.

What we DIDN'T do was go all ballistic on other general arranger sites, carping about every last one of them. Fixes appeared quickly, along with many improvements we didn't ask for, and cordiality and cooperation with the manufacturer got us probably a much better factory response than if we had simply gone gonzo all over the place.

The Audya is already up to OS3 in a matter of days, an update schedule FAR in excess of most other manufacturers.

IMHO, if you want the fastest response to your bugfix needs, do it organized, do it respectfully, and you are likely to remain positive through the process. Do it here, in public, and you can see what you get... pure negativism. Of course, what none of these naysayers will ever admit to is that they have never got a BETTER bugfix response from anyone else, either. But they sure make it seem like it, don't they?

Nedim, i don't know, let's ask...

KETRON, ARE YOU HERE?
CAN YOU HEAR ME?
HELLO KETRON....HELLO
ANYBODY HOME ????????

I would agree, I think it best that all of the bugs are listed on the Ketron synthzone forum, numbered one after the other.

The list should not contain:
no negative comments,
no going off topics,
no, "when are we getting updates"
Etc,
Just descriptive narrative of the problem on hand, so Ketron USA & AJ look into each bug.

I believe that would at least provide organization to this chaos.

i know AJ looks at Ketron Forum, but does KETRON?

it would probably make more sense to post onan official KETRON site,

time for a real Ketron AUDYA forum maybe that's not in Italian?

I'm not sure if Ketron Italy will, but Ketron USA does and they and AJ would relay the bugs to ketron.it.

Is there a USERS Ketron forum?

To be honest, I think that having the site where bug information is posted is FAR better in the hands of an independent site, as it was with the G70 Users Club.

At least there is no temptation for the manufacturer to move, hide or dismiss it so easily (not that Ketron would necessarily do that, but it might be a temptation).

Keep the process in the hands of the users, IMO...

I opened up a post on the ketron synthzone site, which AJ is the moderator. I think it at least worth a try and give ketron a little help so that in turn they will help the customer.

You might like to take a look here http://www.roland-arranger.com/smf/index.php?topic=34.0 at how we set up and worded the purpose of the bug forum.

Main point is to keep the bitching to a minimum, but to maximize the reproducible steps. Like we say... if you can't get a problem to repeat itself, it AIN'T a bug, and you are unlikely to get a fix...

Sh*t happens, but a 'bug' happens EVERY TIME!

Why dont we make one thing clear? Ketron dont have their own OFFICIAL FORUM. AJ visits
this on good will and deserves big thanks and apreciation but he is not KETRON. Even Ted from
KETRON USA is not KETRON, just a distributor and cant do nothing about bugs nor convince
KETRON Italy. A lot of times we just waste nerves in here for nothing. This is not Korg where
Paolo (Korg Italy), Jerry (Korg USA), Malcolm (Korg Japan), Rich (Korg USA) actually interact
with us on the forums and care about something. Ketron Italy doesnt even know this exist nor
they care, lets be real. I am just a regular synth user and i still get to talk to the biggest heads
directly on the phone or e-mail, Korg USA, Korg Italy or Korg Japan. You think Ketron will allow
us to do that? The only BIG HEADS from Ketron i know is AJ and Sandro and AJ is just a personal
friend of mine, nothing really of bussines either. We need something Ketron Official where those
engineers actually look, read, correspond and else...you'll see then.

Hi,All,

I do have a contact in the factory however I don't know how he would feel if I gave his email out on this site, since no one will admit how many Audyas there are in the USA I don't know how many hits he would get, and like you say would it make any difference,would he put it down to this site, BTW the only way I got this mans email, I blasted them like hell for not replying to my emails and he did.
