Re: JD-XA Crackling Sound

I can't stress enough...if you're having digital clicks and pops intermittently....seek to replace the unit. Its defective. Feel secure in the knowledge that a properly working JDXA has ZERO digital clicks or pops. Indeed, this sucks for anyone who it happens to (it certainly was an inconvenience an...

Re: JD-XA Editing Effects and Reverb ...easily. Manual Mode!

1. You are correct. My earlier post was "literally" incorrect. MFX do not have a dedicated "reverb", as I inadvertently indicated. However, be sure to take a hard look at the "Rvs Delay"...which when set correctly is essentially a reverb effect, including Damping, Feedb...

Re: JD-XA Crackling Sound

My replacement unit is equally perfect. If you're experiencing audio pops and digital noise...replace the unit. It's defective.

Re: JDXA Sequencer Primer

Thank you again, @tomoe97! Yes, I would say that its two things that caused me to miss it. 1) its not spelled out in the Roland documentation. 2) you need to be in "sequencer mode" (described in my original post above) for this particular copy operation to appear on screen....without scrol...

Re: JDXA Sequencer Primer

You are correct! Shift/copy (bank button). That's a miss on my part. Very nice!!! This resolves the issue of not being able to monitor keyboard playing while recording to tracks 9-16, and set to INT. just record your part in tracks 1-8, then copy to 9-16. Then point 9-16 to the right channel/part. V...

JDXA Sequencer Primer

I know there's a lot of questions about the JDXA Sequencer. Here's a quick primer (especially for @cello, who I know is finding his way through his TWO new JDXA's): Edit: This has now been updated to correctly represent the JDXA sequencer Copy/Paste function, and how it impacts the use of the sequen...

Re: JD-XA Editing Effects and Reverb ...easily. Manual Mode!

I'll consider doing a video on the sequencer... In the meantime...here's a short tutorial on how you can interface the sequencer with OTHER sequencers (such as your DAW) to get far greater functionality. I think this also helps to understand the fundamentals of the XA and its sequencer better, overa...

Re: JD-XA Editing Effects and Reverb ...easily. Manual Mode!

Actually, back around the release of the MV8800, and the Fantom X/G series, Roland was really good about having support reps posting detailed YT tutorial videos. Mike Acosta and Dan Krisher, to name two prominent examples, put out LOTS of detailed tutorials, from basic to advanced. It seems they are...

Re: Build and Keyboard Quality?

it leans heavily in build and design towards the JDXi. Full size keys of course. More like keys on the Gaia than keys on the Jupiter 80/50. The Jupiter 80/50 was built like a tank. This is disappointing in comparison. However....a great comparison is, if you've ever had your hands on one...the Boss ...

Re: JD-XA Editing Effects and Reverb ...easily. Manual Mode!

Another huge help in understanding the work-flow between the control panel and the menu system, is using the Menu-Hold function [Shift + Menu]. This prevents the menu from automatically jumping to whatever parameter you touch or manipulate on the control panel. Because there are many (probably MORE)...
