Safe to say, nothing coming. With a sidechain compressor and maybe a fad vocoder/harmoniser, FM synth, a bit more work on the sequencer and some improved options on the Scenes, they'd have sold 3 times as many units, eve...

Lastly, we've used a Roland VT4 for many years. We use it as a pitch shifter and as a reverb, as it sounds sort of like a spring reverb. We use it as a vocal/sample pre-amp, and also as a send/return for the pitch shifte...

A really useful thing to add to the Zencore engine would be a 'sample effector'. This is basically a sample editor that allows you to run any loaded/ROM sample and play it through any combination of the Zencore effects (...

Around since 2019, will Roland update the Zencore engine for the devices and utils that use it? It has a lot of potential, such as wavetable playback, and possibly vector synthesis. Sample/ROM sound start offset position...

...and finally, lastly, ultimately, Roland, if you were to upgrade the engine on the MC-707, since it is mirrored in other devices, you would then be upgrading ALL of them with the new features. You have potentially, for...

1) Randomise partial only, drum pad or tone, in addition to a full randomise 2) Reverse play sample without having to loop it. 3) Generate soundscape. Takes any ROM sample, or user sample, and runs it through a Paul's X...

Nonetheless, I'll be using my 707 for years to come. It's just a shame that Roland wouldn't give us the icing on the cake with a final update. They want some 2 1/2 grand for a new drum machine that the 707 can do better!...

We know Roland have abandoned our beloved 707, but we've got 1 more idea for the miserable, miserly bastards 😎 Vector Synthesis Choose 2 controller knobs on the track, and map them to x and Y. Controller X fades between...

From my experience on the 707, the selected track will be affected by incoming controller data if the track is enabled to receive it. Can't speak for the 101, whether or not MIDI functions can be disabled per track. That...

Don't know if Roland have dropped the System 8, but you don't hear much. The much maligned System 1 we've had over 10 years, and we're still using it for the magnificent SH-2 plugout. You can pick the System 1 up pretty...
