Re: Just wanted to say hi!
Oh yes! Currently finishing setting up a studio after a long hiatus. Got my old synths from storage and have a nice recording console and some huge JBL monitors + sub. Just got my old Matrix 6R today and am playing it and making some sounds. It's really good, always loved it. It's good to hear from...

Re: Yamaha Cs1x and QY300
It depends what you want to do. The QY300 is a capable sequencer and had the GM midi sounds in it. You can use thr CS1X to sequence music either using the sequencer sounds or the sounds of the CS1X itself.

Two keys not sounding on Yamaha CS1X
Hi all,
I have an old cs1x that was working fine before a house move. Now when I use it, a G and G# key in the top octave don't work at all. Does anyone have any ideas before I take it apart and probably end up with more bits than I started with...

Re: Roland MC-500 memory upgrade
Thank you for your reply! I guess I’ll have to be on the lookout for another sequencer. Is there anyway to make it load the songs faster? I’m using a Gotek Floppy emulator and it takes a while for each song to load. My band mate have to do an awful lot of small talk from stage while I load up more ...

Re: Roland MC-500 memory upgrade
I don't think you can do it without swapping out a board. That is probably going to be hard to find.
The Mk II had more capacity, as did the MC50.

Re: Yamaha RX5: DIY enclosure for GliGli's RX5USB
This looks excellent; I'd never even heard about these things. I might have to try one in my RX5...I haven't powered it up for a long time but this makes more use of it.
Nice work on the case.

Re: Sequencing midi cc from Roland mc 500
You certainly can. I used to use it a lot with effects units from my MC 500 but that was eons ago. It should be easy with the manual...just can't remember off the top of my head!

Re: s950 floppy drive replacement
I thought about going the HxC route but I still have a lot of stuff on floppy disk...I'll still need to get the samples off. Mine is currently still working so maybe I should be doing that!

Re: New to Roland MC-500 advanced questions
SuperMRC was the software for the MC-500 MkII. The MRP was designed for performance and so it was used so settings could be saved for ease of use live. Not sure it will be so useful to you though!
