I just tested it on my DS88 and it works, but you cannot reassign the Sustain pedal to Sostennuto. You can, however, reassign the CC Pedal to Sostenuto. So in order to make this work you need a Roland EV-5 continuous ped...

In theory it should be possible if you assign the Sustain Pedal to Sostenudo Mode. Then it will only hold the notes that are played when you simultaneously dpepress the pedal and none of the subsequent notes. Gary ;)

Just wondering if anyone out there has a Cakewalk INS file for a TR-808 or 909? Or even if anyone has created one for the newer TR-8 or TR-8S? If so, could you pleae upload it here? Thanks :) Gary ;)

Other people did all the heavy lifting, but today someone asked me for help and I cleaned up the file and added Juno Di drumkits to it. Here is a working Juno DS Cakewalk INS File that contains both patches and drumkits...

Problem was resolved. Upgrade took more than a simple reboot to work properly. It required a full factory reset. Gary ;)

BTW, is there any way I can safely revert to the 2.00 firmware from 2.10 and if so where can I find the file? It turns out I do not have the file archived anywhere and Roland does not list earlier firmwares on their webs...

You can add to the ticket that the update breaks both USB AND 5 Pin Din MIDI Ports as well. Just received an interface and ran a test. Gary ;)
