ANOTHER BUG IN JUNO-G?

11 Jan 2007, 21:06

besides the sustain pedal problem (that has been publicly televised on youtube by a roland user), i noticed another bug in the juno-g.........WHEN YOU LAYER 2 VOICES IN PERFORMANCE MODE!

for eg:
you are currently having piano in track 1 (which is the current selected track) and you turn the KBD SW (F3) on for Track 2 (soft pad), and you play the notes...the piano sounds cut off with light clicks often.

1st I thought its a polyphony issue, but its not because it happens at random, even at the beginning!

we still haven't heard anything from Roland about the sustain issue.....i hope roland has improved its quality when it comes to customer relations and satisfaction!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi,

I've created preformances with more than 4 layers playing at the same time and haven't experienced note drops very often...

By the other way, some weeks ago I experienced the same symtoms of the sustain bug, but without any pedal... I was playing and the notes I was holding on my left hand stopped sounding suddently.

This makes me thing that there might be a bug with the voice allocation algorithm or something similar. It's like it's stealing active voices without any reason.

We'll have to wait till Roland gaves us a solution.
Best regards,

Urtzi.

What effects are you using? If the piano goes to a click, it sounds like an effects cross-out. Some do not mix; if you use any distortions with big choruses, etc, things can happen. But note drop? No way. I regularily mix 4 patches together, two or more of which are fat pads or broad vocal pans- all that, with huge chords, and I still haven't killed her!
