Re: JD-Xi questions

There is a bug in the Linux snd-usb-audio module that prevents the JDXI from working in duplex mode. I recently wrote a quickfix that makes it work (at least on my aged 3.14.12 kernel). If you are able to compile your own kernel i could provide that patch. Hrm.. I don't even have the ability to ena...

Not my favourite kit, but the first kit (909 kit) is the default, so that's what people will be expecting as a default, I think.

Re: JDXi Manager - Patch Editor for the Roland JD-Xi Synthes

What do you mean by default value? Zero? Depending on the parameter in question, yes. Things like resonance and LFO amounts would go to zero. LPF cutoff and Amp envelop Sustain would go to the maximum. LFO rate might go to the middle of the range. that kind of thing. I guess what ever the Init pres...

Re: JD-Xi questions

I would like to be able to shift all the Factory programs and move them to the later Banks and put my own in the A,B,C programmes. You know you can change the initial program in the system settings, right? At least then you don't have to skip through 4 banks to start with. Or even get rid of the Fa...

JD-Xi questions

A couple of JD-Xi questions - Is there any way to prevent the program selection from killing your unsaved program? The number of times I have created an almost complete pattern with 3 parts, and switched to the 4th part, and then accidentally pressed "Program +" instead of "Tone +&quo...

Re: JDXi Manager - Patch Editor for the Roland JD-Xi Synthes

Working really nicely on Linux. Thank you! Some feedback: It'd be nice to have a quick way to reset a particular parameter to the default value. Double clicking or right clicking might be good. The program doesn't read MIDI on the fly - I have to press the read button to get updates from knob change...

Re: Is jd-xi capable of live seqencing my songs

Yes, it is possible to sequence my songs almost to the way I want to.
Are you stepping between patterns? If so, how?

Re: JD-Xi effects routing

What would be really cool is if you could use shift+effect knob to alter the send volume for each part... It is quite useful to be able to have delay on multiple parts, and adjust it on the fly for just one part, for example.
