V-Synth Not Backwards Compatable and General Rant

1. They are fully compatible. Use the convert procedure in the project menu.

2. A or B. But since you have a flash drive, why would you delete the presets if you need them?

3. So far, that's all Sinevibes have on offer, but there will be several new sound libraries available in 2008.

4. The Tweakbook should help

thanks !
I really liked all your work, and appreciate your help with the V-Synth.

Thank you very much! It's a real honour to hear.

convert procedure is not available, bacause GT can't see anything on the flash to convert. Patches is downloaded from http://www.rolandus.com/go/v-synth/patch2/index.html

All worked fine here with many projects that use both ROM and custom samples.

Put the V-Synth OS 2.0 or V-Synth XT projects in a folder named "XT". Then, on the GT, go to the Project -> Convert Project menu, and that's it.

Thanks! It works

Wonderful, you haven't read this in the manual and complained about something...

How many boards do you own.
Does Roland Pay you? Kick BACK!

What is a good price for a use V-synth 2.0?

How many boards do you own.

It's in my profile.

Does Roland Pay you?

I did a few things for them, but if you meant this site and associated things, then of course not - we are independent.

What is a good price for a use V-synth 2.0?

Oh well, it depends on where you are from. In US, something around $1000 is a good price.

You say that you've had success with the Convert Project function on the GT:

"All worked fine here with many projects that use both ROM and custom samples."

But I've been unable to convert any patches from the original V-Synth that used its factory ROM samples. When I contacted Roland about this I was told that it only works for patches that use Analog osc or custom samples. What's the situation please?

What's the situation please?

Since all worked fine for me, as you imagine, I have no idea

Perhaps we are all not talking about the same thing.

These are the only ones that I can not get into the GT. They get hung up because of the wave (.W00) files. I think I have tried the old librarian, the new GT librarian, as well as including them in a folder labeled XT (in order to use the GT itself to import) and not in a folder labeled XT.

Suade - are these the ones you are referring to?
Artemio - have you gotten these to work? If so, please let us know how.

Thank you very much.
