HELP!

[shel_keys]

Problems using perform function of JV1010.
Is it the same as the COMBI of Korg?
First time to use Roland and having a hard time even with the manual.
Not yet even hear what's inside the PERFORM presets,
I just figured out how to use JV1010 on my cubase..
now, how to layer patches, like making a 8 patches in COMBI mode of KORG?
Thanks in advance

you should really spend a bit more time with it.

Yah, true. prob is, i play gig everynight, finished at around 5am, and next thing you know, the next day, back on stage again.
Seems like i cant find time, maybe i can, but sometimes a bit impatient.
Wish it was easier as KORG.
Thanks anyway.

sorry shel_keys, didnt meant to be mean to you.

you are right, Roland Performance = Korg Combi. Roland Patch = Korg Program.

are you using it for live performance or midi sequencing?

you can use the SEQ mode to layer sounds together without programming it. just select the patch you want in different tracks and set their midi channel to be the same.

track 1 - piano - channel 5
track 2 - strings - channel 5
track 3 - flute - channel 5
track 4 - bells - channel 5

this is the quick and easy way. but this way does not allow you to fine tune stuff like velocity zone-ing.

i got lost in a XP 50 ...went back to 01W

the better it gets, complicated it becomes !!

 

[shel_keys]

For use in live performance. You know like layering a few patch to to make a thicker and richer sound. the way i use in Combi of my le.

 

[shel_keys]

or should i just switch to 1080?

Shel_keys, soft's point is important - spending more time with it. If you are playing gig full time, then you really have to spend time knowing your equipment inside out.

There's no need to change to JV1080. It's all the same. Soft's recommendation is the easiest. That is: use Cubase to select the instruments you want to combine and trigger them all from the same midi channel. The more complex way needs programming of the unit and it get's troublesome since each patch may contain more than 1 element - and you have a limit of the number of elements you can include in one patch. You can't just combine both tracks into one by pressing a button. So, easiest way is what soft says.

Roland tends to have one of the worst manuals on earth. You can accomplish more by spending time with your equipment - you probably can figure out faster.
