Roland Clan Forums

This looks just what I have been looking for. I need something to easily create layers and spits and store them. The UI on the RD88 is sadly lacking for the capabilities of the sound engine inside it. I will give this a try over the next weeks as I would like to use RD88 at our next gig in Dec and n...

Thanks for the replies. System settings ..that should sort the blighter !. Re using TFX absolutely agree re EQ. I was noodling and trying to create a flangy organ sound for Another brick in wall organ party so just tried the flanger rather than the individual effect in the patch ..thing is it then s...

There may be a simple answer but I haven't found it

The issue I have is I once set TFX to flanger , but now every time I turn on the FA the flanger is on so I then have to twiddle it to turn it off. Is there any way of setting the default so that TFX is off when I turn the unit on ?

Thanks

Hi there
I have RD88 but have never owned RD1000. But here is a rough recording of the RD1000 patch on the RD88. Recorded from the USB port. The patch is as was no effects or EQ etc. Hope this gives you an idea. Best Rob

All these are good options. I have used a Gator slim GKB gig bag. I have used it loads over the past 5 years or so and is still in great condition. It has protected the FA well and more importantly for me it just fits perfectly on my car's back parcel shelf, which means I can keep the keyboard away ...

I have and still am a long time user of Roland products. My first synth was a Juno 60 which I bought from Soho Soundhouse back in the 80's and carried it in its case home on the tube and by train..it was heavy and built well. I did end up selling it years later to fund the purchase of RD600. Juno ha...

Been looking at this with interest as a longtime happy FA06 owner. I looked at the bigger Fantom's but too expensive, heavy, (built well) and full of features that I didn't need, but a great display and UI. Looking at Roland Cloud they seem to be charging $149 for each of the synth (Jupiter, SH101,,...

Hi there I have been through a similar journey to find a suitable amp rig for my keyboards. I have RD88 and FA06 + soft synths + guitar I started on this journey with A Roland KC500, a big heavy brute with lots of power to cut through against drums and lead guitar. Absolutely brilliant for Hammond s...

Hi there I saw post and thought no there has to be a Hand Clap..but I could not find one. I would have thought that there would be one in the drum kit. But I have Software Zenology and in Expansion Pack ExZ004 Power drums there are some in the drum kits in that, so that may be a good option to buy a...

Hi The way I would it is via USB Audio from FA into a computer. Then use Audacity or similar on PC/MAC to record the audio as WAV. That way you don't have to unplug memory cards etc. You have to install the USB drivers for FA on Mac or PC first Windows 10 driver install can be a pain sometimes but i...

Thank you Genji for posting very very useful I had spent many hours this afternoon wondering why I couldn't get FA06 to be recognised by Windows 10 Laptop. "optional updates" was the answer as you posted here. Roland need to update the info on the Support / Drivers page as if I hadn't come...

Hi Lance I have been going through the same Frustration. Maybe this will help you and others who are finding out the joys of the Roland Cloud. You do of course have to update to the latest firmware on the RD88 to be able to load these .exz files. This is well documented and straightforward. So while...

Great to have Forum back...Thank you ...

Re RD88 . Mine arrived last week and I am loving it !. In answer to question. No Hardware slots but you an download sounds..

Sold my RD800
Ordered RD88 from Rimmers Music yesterday,,£929 best price I could find , limited stock avail . Also 6 avail in Andertons

I am also very interested in this as I have the RD800 which is great but just to heavy in a flight case to move around. Selling it in UK as have not used it due to weight. Done some enquiries and it is confirmed that the casing on the RD 88 is plastic, like the FP30. Shouldn't be too big an issue .....
