Roland Clan Forums

thanks, i did attempt it and the computer was talking about new hardware detected. so i think if i uninstall and reinstall it will be ok.

<t>so i decided to load some new sounds into my 808 yesterday. now the USB won't connect.<br/> <br/> i followed the manual directions: mc808 off, plugged in USB cable, SYSTEM, shift + keyboard-8 to get to USB mode, it is set to STORAGE. i press enter and NOTHING HAPPENS.<br/> <br/> any ideas what co...

sorry, i was referring to the "LOAD ALL" feature. this is described on page 100 of the main user manual.

<t>dirk, thanks for your comments. the AUTO SYNC is something i'll hjave to get into using.<br/> <br/> <br/> ><br/> <br/> what i meant was not if a sample was "replaced" in the memory literally, meaning the old one was deleted and a new one saved in the same position.<br/> <br/> no, the problem i ge...

<r>hey thanks for those replies. i wrote those questions last june. if you search this forum for my posts, you can see my subsequent posts on the MC-808 since i bought it.<br/> <br/> i'll answer my own concerns here (at least some of them)<br/> - = this is a bad thing<br/> + = this is a good thing<b...

<t>...haven't noticed that. annoyingly, long samples seem to cut off when going from one pattern to the next though.<br/> <br/> the songmode issue i've been having, which i complained about to roland, is that any programming done in a pattern is not reflected in the song, if the pattern is changed a...

what songmode problem are you referring to?

<t>i think what you really have to do rather than selecting the part to delete is to DESELECT all the parts you DON'T want to delete. it pops up with all 16 pads lit, you have to turn off the ones you want to keep.<br/> <br/> usually with most such functions on any device/program, the default would ...

...i made the same error. yeah you WRITE but then you change the location or even the name while you're at it. then everything about the pattern is saved. it makes sense but when you see "PART COPY" you make assumptions.

i've not been able to successfully get into the MIDI editor either and i'm on a mac laptop. i wanted to edit the reverbs and it gave me some kind of error message i can't recall because it was months ago.

sorry, wish i could be more help.

<t>i can't recall if i used the MC-808 w/o the card, ever. but no, there is a TMP folder for import in the memory. MIDI has nothing to do with transerring files to either TMP folder, that's done through USB.<br/> <br/> as for MIDI, i'm just going to come out and say the MIDI implementation on this s...

yeah i know, that's what i meant. they'd say "thanks, spishak!" or "from spishak, of course!" mad tv fan here from back during the classic lineup: alex borstein, will sasso, debra wilson et al

thanks, spishak (you chose that name just to have people say that, didn't you?)

so if my original sound is mono (all of mine are, since they're for live mono systems) looping it will take up 2 voices? meaning 2 voices of polyphony in the pattern it's used in?

what do you mean by double voices? and do you have to do anything special to the loop to make sure it syncs in proper time?

does the MC-808 do that as well?
