PC300 useless with windows 7

Post by Numanic »

Why cant a company like Roland support ALL of its products ?
Ive just purchased myself a Roland PC300 only to find their is no driver for windows 7 !

Is it really that difficult this day and age ????

Very annoyed !

When I bought this synthesizer I thought Roland was one of the best brands in the world. I was happy and proud that I'd spent a lot of money in something that was "good" and would last many years. Instead I find that Roland has such despise for its costumers that it cannot make the simplest thing: an updated driver for the current OS.

Do you have any idea what this does to your "brand"? Do you even know what brand management is?

To Vstream.be: we know where the page is, but the PC-300 was simply lost and forgotten. Whoever bought it is not worth Roland's trouble.

Did you actually read that page? Here's a quote from the page Vstream.be posted:

I know it is an old thread but just thought i would up date.

My brother just bought a PC-300 second hand and after a lot of searching I managed to get it working on windows 7 32bit.

Hope it helps someone else one day.
