Opening of new forums

[Artemiy]

Hey all!

I think there are at least 3 very exciting devices that our community will embrace warmly. I am myself considering the SPD-30 and VP-7, will definitely check them out. So I am thinking about opening these new forums:

SPD-30 octapad (not exactly sure about this one)
VP-7, VP-550 and VP-770
SD-50 sound canvas

Do you think this makes sense?

Only the SD-50 seems similar enough to what we have here (SonicCell), but VP-7 should be very popular among many of us due to size and (hopefully) affordable price, and SPD-30 just seems like a huge bag of fun.

Hey Art!

Yes, this makes sense.

[Andy Keys]

Try it. You can always merge them if they don't get sufficient use.

[Jabberwocky_]

It's a pitty that they didn't include an EQ (or MFX) in the VP 7 , ... anyhow -> maybe it's very affordable in this case.

Sorry, Artemiy!

I still think that a dedicated expansion board forum section would be a good idea! I just posted some SRX information and chose the Fantom S/X section, however, the pdf is applicable to a number of other instruments as well. Where does one post threads like this?

Cheers!

other Roland Gear?

[piaknowguy]

Yeah! You're right, Dbijoux. I guess that would work. I just personally like the idea of finding all of the expansion related topics in one place. Right now, they're all over the map. Don't mind me! I was just obsessing for a moment.

It might be a case for tagging posts, since SRX exists in so many different models.

From what I've seen how Artemiy runs the forum, I would guess that the question might be would an SRX forum generate enough activity to make it a viable addition? Certainly they come up quite often.

[piaknowguy]

Actually, more like a 'SRX' 'ARX' 'JV80' forum section. It's just wishful thinking on my part, as I am secretly hoping that Roland will release so many new ARX boards for so many new products that we will have to make their presence more cohesive! =)

piaknowguy, I just think it's too late. Too many posts already made on SRX/ARX boards in the Fantom forums. Too many people are so used to posting these questions there. We'd be dealing with many posts that we'd need to move, etc.

Maybe "arrangers" section (G70 , E50/60/80 , and the GW-8 )
