Re: Chaining two JU-06A

Yes, they do. As long as the presets are all the same.

All slider movement and stuff like that (switches) are send to the slave as well as CC.

Re: New Boutique Synth RUMORS?

Less than a month to go, and no hints or leaks.

We will know soon if Roland is cooking up something new in the Boutique range.

Re: My JDXA is falling apart sound wise

As mentioned before by someone in this thread, crackling in the sound path can sometimes be caused by faulty capacitors. Since the machine is only three years old, it maybe that Roland used a faulty batch of capacitors. Let's hope you get it fixed by them without any hastle. For yourself, you might ...

Re: No sound in Roland E-86 Intelligent Synthesizer

Check if it still outputs MIDI note on messages when you play on the keyboard. If that still works (and since you said all lights are still working) it might be that the audio part has failed, either the stuff producing the sound or the (pre)amplifier. If you open it, do you see corrosion on the boa...

Re: Can anybody explain voice stealing while in chain mode?

As an example, take the following tone in mind: staccato notes with long release. Now press 6 keys, 4 notes will be played on the master, 2 on the slave, which still has 2 empty voices left. Now release, the notes have a long release, and press again 6 keys. Since the master has no knowledge of what...

Re: Am I the only one who wants a K-49m and a K-61m?

You're not the only one. Even a K-37m would be great. The only thing I'm worried about is pricing, the K-25m costs around 100 Euro, I don't like to think what Roland will charge for a K-49m or K-61m. I assume the m stands for minikeys. A K-37n (normal keys) would be great too. I assume the K-25m des...

Re: JX-03 Cross Mod options - what EXACTLY do they do?

Sync 1 and 2 are the same effect, only the oscillators are reversed. sync 1 -> DCO 2 hard synced to DCO 1 sync 2 -> DCO 1 hard synced to DCO 2 metal 1 -> DCO 2 FM modulated by DCO 1 metal 2 -> DCO 1 FM modulated by DCO 2 The manual itself is quite unclear about the difference. Sync 2 and metal 2 are...

Re: Boutique Decksaver

Asked Desksaver in January if the cover will fit also JU-06 etc, as they show the TR-09.

This was their answer:

Hi Albert,
Thank you for your enquiry and interest in Decksaver products.
We think it only fits the TR-09/ TB-03.
Kind regards,
Decksaver Team

I think the frequency goes higher up in the lower audio range.

Re: TR-09 snare "Snappy" and "Tone" controls swapped?

You're saying they were swapped beteen update 1.03 and 1.04? That's a good observation.

If so, I'm sure they can swap it back again.

Re: SE-02 and new "Boutique Designer Series"

Thanks cello,

always good to hear someone's opinion instead of a sales pitch!

Luckily they dumped the two slide pads as on the original Boutiques, I find them not very precise anyway. Skipping this gives more room for the proper knobs/sliders.

How as the total interface, intuitive?
