Its in pretty good condition and has just been serviced which included repairing some dry joints to the display and re-conditioning the keyboard. I'm looking for £200 ono- oh yeah I'm in the UK (Brighton) and currently without transport! mail me if interested. Ultimately I don't plan on jumping ship for long- I really like the S50 but it doesn't really suit its intended role; controller keyboard with some grungy sampling thrown in. I've gotta release some funds to pay for something else but would like to get a S330 in the future- I love the S50's sound and I also love tons of the roland library.

It was designed for the s770 samplers and probab= ly works fine on the s750, s700, s760 and maybe even s550's with SCSI. The drive itself was probably $500 or so and the sample archive was $295 if memory serves. It works and all samples copied fine - but will be sold as-is. No manual but works easily as it is configuired. Includes SCSI cable. Plug and play. Samples include multiple strings, pizz, cello, pads, voilas, violins, horns, sax, alto, woodwinds and more!!!

The Orchestral Family is the culmination of ove= r eight years of sampling in studios, concert halls and cathedrals all over= the world and the contributions of hundreds of talented musicians, engineers, and sound designers." $75 plus shipping or a near offer or trade for something. |_e_/~ Dennis Barton ) skylab2000 ~\/\ Brainforest Productions, Los Angeles / http://skylab2000.com - Sent by the sgroup mailing list on lists.uunet.ca For subscription information, send mail to majordomo@lists.uunet.ca and see http://www.generalconcepts.com/sgroup/ for more information. >From owner-sgroup Thu Jun 7 17:18:46 2001 Received: by hugin.uunet.ca id <193709-158>; Thu, 7 Jun 2001 17:18:37 -0400 Received: from barry.mail.mindspring.net ([207.69.200.25]) by hugin.uunet.ca with ESMTP id <193708-157>; Thu, 7 Jun 2001 17:18:32 -0400 Received: from mindspring.com (user-2ive1n1.dialup.mindspring.com [165.247.6.225]) by barry.mail.mindspring.net (8.9.3/8.8.5) with ESMTP id RAA03994 for ; Thu, 7 Jun 2001 17:18:27 -0400 (EDT) Message-ID: <3B1FF157.7FC9BA24@mindspring.com> Date: Thu, 7 Jun 2001 17:25:43 -0400 From: Jesse Segovia Organization: Elanza X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.77 [en] (Win98; U) X-Accept-Language: en,ja,ko,zh MIME-Version: 1.0 To: Sampler Group Subject: sgroup Roland S-760 16-bit Samplers for sale Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-sgroup@lists.uunet.ca Precedence: bulk A fellow I know is selling several Roland S-670 samplers.

I finally bought the old 25-pin SCSI connection to new SCSI pin connection cable to connect my S-760 sampler to my AW-4416 digital workstation but no luck. I set all the SCSI addresses correctly (AW is 6, CD-ROM drive is 3 and I set the 760 to 0), I brought up the AW-4416, put a Roland-formatted sample CD in its drive, and then powered up the S-760. As the 760 did its SCSI check the CD-ROM drive in the AW started whirring and I was a little encouraged. After the 760 came up all the way, I went to Disk, Load and selected CD-ROM drive on SCSI ID 3 (the 760 DID recognize that there was a CD drive at that address). Guess what? I saw a listing of all the performances on the sample CD! Success! Or so I thought. At this point both the 760 AND the AW locked up - I had to cold boot both of them. I tried again with a different CD, and got the exact same results. Oh well. Back to the old Roland compatibility list.

I talked to Roland sampler support and they said everything on the list of supported drives is an external drive so go ahead and buy it, but the seller responded to me today that it's an internal drive. I've never tried to use an internal drive outside of a PC; I'm sure I'd need a transformer to go from the wall to that funny four-pin power connection PC internals use and I might have a problem going from the CD's internal data connection to the 760's 25 pin SCSI connection. I even went to my local CompUSA to try to get a brand new drive and they no longer sell SCSI CD-ROM drives for the Mac.

I don't have a problem paying fifteen bucks for the CD, but I AM concerned about twenty bucks for the floppy disk set, which for all I know contains samples available on the CD or on the Roland L-700 library. Do you have the floppy disk images? By the way, Roland told me they have discontinued all the sampler CDs in their S-700 series library like Keyboards of the 60s and 70s and the orchestral stuff. This doesn't make sense to me since their newer sound modules can read these CDs and they're still listed on their web site; plus it seems like you can still buy them through ilio or other similar sites. But if they ARE discontinued, isn't it completely legal for us to copy and swap these CDs (I know, I should have asked Roland)?

The demo version won't let you work with any new samples but it does allow you to transmit four demo samples to your sampler (including the S-760) via MIDI. Some samplers are supported via SCSI transfer which is much faster but the S-760, as an older sampler, has been de-supported 8-(. Anyway, it took sixty times longer than the sample length itself to transmit a wav. file to the sampler via MIDI. So sending a 5.5 second sample took five and a half minutes. So it looks like no-go for a quick conversion to the sampler.

A SCSI CD-ROM drive is a SCSI CD-ROM drive, mac or otherwise. Theres probably stacks still around somewhere. Early CDROMs were all SCSI and you'll get em cheap cause they're crap for use in computers (like 1x or 2x speed kind of thing) but work fine for loading samples off. I'm using I think a trantor one which came bundled with a pro audio spectrum sound card as a 'multimedia' pack, back when it was still cool to call things that in the early 90s sometime which was lying around unused in my parents house, in an external drive chassis I got for free off a university (they had mounds of them cause they used em with some syquest 50meg removable rubbish and didn't need them anymore). Total price $0 and it works great. Internal SCSI ports look different to the one on the s760, but they're actually the same. You just need an adaptor of the appropriate type (probably 50pin internal SCSI to 50pin external SCSI), but some chassises (whats the plural of that? thats not right surely) have them built in. -- voytek lapinski voytekl@freeshell.org irgulight tunes @ http://irgulight.n3.net/ - Sent by the sgroup mailing list on lists.uunet.ca For subscription information, send mail to majordomo@lists.uunet.ca and see http://www.generalconcepts.com/sgroup/ for more information. >From owner-sgroup Fri Jun 15 01:44:19 2001 Received: by hugin.uunet.ca id <193710-14049>; Fri, 15 Jun 2001 01:44:12 -0400 Received: from gc0.generalconcepts.com (24.100.243.203.on.wave.home.com [24.100.243.203]) by hugin.uunet.ca with ESMTP id <193708-14049>; Fri, 15 Jun 2001 01:44:01 -0400 Received: (from jsellens@localhost) by gc0.generalconcepts.com (8.11.3/8.11.1) id f5F5hwo12338 for sgroup@lists.uunet.ca; Fri, 15 Jun 2001 01:43:58 -0400 (EDT) (envelope-from jsellens) Received: from mail.hotkey.net.au ([202.138.0.33]) by hugin.uunet.ca with ESMTP id <193708-29063>; Thu, 14 Jun 2001 23:15:02 -0400 Received: from voytek (unknown [202.138.0.30]) by mail.hotkey.net.au (Postfix) with ESMTP id 274C257DFE; Fri, 15 Jun 2001 13:15:00 +1000 (EST) Received: from voytekl by voytek with local (Exim 3.22 #1 (Debian)) id 15Ak5k-0004Hg-00; Fri, 15 Jun 2001 13:16:12 +1000 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" From: Voytek Lapinski Organization: Hotkey Internet Services To: jsegovia@mindspring.com Subject: Re: sgroup Converting WAV Files to Roland Format Date: Thu, 14 Jun 2001 23:16:12 -0400 X-Mailer: KMail [version 1.2] References: In-Reply-To: Cc: sgroup@lists.uunet.ca MIME-Version: 1.0 Message-Id: <01061513161208.30736@voytek> Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Sender: owner-sgroup@lists.uunet.ca Precedence: bulk On Friday 15 June 2001 06:47, you wrote: > Continuing my search for a reliable and quick way to transfer wav. files to > Roland format, I downloaded a demo of Recycle from the bitheadz web site. > The demo version won't let you work with any new samples but it does allow > you to transmit four demo samples to your sampler (including the S-760) via > MIDI.

It's a pain in the arse cause it's slow but it works. They end up with bad loop points (won't play) and rubbish at the end of the sample. You just have to get the length in samples from soundforge, and then truncate the sample in the s760 to the right length, which sets sensible loop points (ie no loop, just plays through) as well. Oh yeah, and if it's stereo you have to send each channel seperately.

Here's the only thing I found that looks like an external drive. Does anyone have any experience with this unit? http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?MfcISAPICommand=GetResult&ht=1&SortProperty=MetaEndSort&query=DRM-604X It's a six-disk CD-ROM changer. I called Roland support and asked how this thing works with the S-760 since there doesn't seem to be a disc change button on the unit itself. The Roland rep guesses each CD-ROM in the magazine gets its own SCSI ID and so when the 760 scans SCSI devices, it finds six different CD-ROM 'drives' with what ever sound CD you've inserted into each slot at each different ID. So from the disk load screen he guesses you select whichever sample disk you want and load your sounds. The question I have is if the drive takes up six SCSI IDs and the 760 takes up another, that still leaves me one other other SCSI device to install a hard drive or other SCSI device, since SCSI has 8 different IDs, 0 through 7, right?

They're very nice synth stacks samples; some of them are pretty much the same as sounds they programmed for the Roland D-50, like a patch called 'Synchoirium.' Using sdisk, I made images of each of the files, except for two of them which failed! I thought that was it; I'd lost those two diskettes since I had no other back-up. Fortunately, though, the S-550 itself was able to load one of the bad diskettes and I used it to make a good floppy. The 550 couldn't read the other bad disk, but oddly enough another PC, my laptop, was able to read it; sdisk made a good image and I used that to copy out to another disk. So the moral of the story is, two failures out of twelve disks doesn't speak too highly of the integrity of the 550 sample disks I've been storing, and even if you find a bad diskette, try it over and over again until hopefully you find a drive that can read it.

Yes, that's more or less what I meant. Two out of twelve is a cause for concern regardless of what's wrong. I'm now trying to make sdisk copies of everything I have and then I'll back those up to data CD. I don't have the CD player for the S-550 so there's not much I can do there but if I can at least make new DS/DD disks whenever the old ones go bad I'm better off than I was before. BTW, has anyone used sdisk to make floppies from all the images on our web site? The Roland sound library disks mostly work for my but most of the other ones put up there by list members fail for me.

Yeah, I still haven't gotten into loops yet. There's tons of popular music these days, in virtually all styles, being made with loops, but I'd rather put down my own parts and vary each part with each verse. > Also, why did Roland use a proprietary disk OS? Why not MS-DOS? I don't know why, but they were using it every since they started making samplers. The S-50 keyboard, the S-550 and S-330 rackmounts, and the W-30 workstation all used basically the same Roland format and architecture (I'm not sure how the S-10 keyboard fit in but it appeared to be similar). The S-700 series samplers built on that - they can read the 12-bit S-50/550/330 format disks but they have their own 16-bit format the older samplers can't read. > I'm very curious to hear about your experiences with the Roland S series > of samplers (preferably the S7xx users). I got my S-760 very recently and I haven't done as much with it as I'd like, but I got my S-550 sampler pretty much when they were first released in the late '80s. I love it; to my ears it always sounded so much better than the other comparable samplers of the day like the Emax. The 550 sounds were always very alive and bright, even mixed in with synths like the D-50 or Yamaha DX series. I never really thought about any other type of synth because I got into the Roland brand very early (my first synth was a MIDI-enabled Jupiter 6) and stuck with them, so I was very comfortable with all the Roland gear, and it all still sounds good. Hey, nice web site. Let us know when it's complete and when there are some mp3s for download.

But they sound exactly the same, right? I remember the exact day in the early '90s my gear buying mania stopped. I'd spent an embarassing amount of money on synth gear, guitar gear, a full drum kit, PA gear, recording gear, everything I needed for my band and my home studio. I'd upgraded from the S-10 sampler to the S-550 and I'd gotten copies of just about every single floppy disk for the 550 my local music store had. They even let me hook up their S-550 to their other keyboards and drums machines on the floor and sample them. Man, I was happy! And then one day I walked into the keyboard department and there were four or five guys huddled around some huge sound module; it looked more like a VCR or a video game console than a synth. It was the new Roland 16-bit sampler, I don't even remember the model but I guess it was the 750. Here I thought all the amazing Roland tricks like interpolation or whatever made the 12-bit S-550 sound every bit as good as the 16-bit samplers available at that time so I'd never need anything else, and yet here was the next generation Roland sampler in all its 16-bit glory. I was obsolete. I finally got a chance to try it out. Someone had loaded some multi-instrument sounds on it including a snare sound with velocity switching that just sounded amazing. You played a little harder on the keyboard and the snare REALLY opened up! I asked right away if these sounds could be played on the S-550, albeit in 12-bit only quality. No, the answer came back. Although the new sampler could read S-550 sounds, the new 16-bit sounds were incompatible with the 550. Bummer! I can't remember what Roland wanted for it. Some unbelievable amount of money, perhaps $3000.00 or more. But walking out at the store looking back at the new sampler, I knew that was it. I was finished chasing the latest and greatest. The gear would keep getting better and more expensive, and I couldn't keep up. Now I know how the Soviets felt when President Reagan said he wasn't going to give up Star Wars and they realized they'd just lost the cold war. I sold some of my equipment and got a few cheap, used pieces to fill in some holes, but that was it. For over ten years I didn't buy another new piece of musical equipment.

I assume so. Have never compared. I was happy with the 770, and would not have bought a 760 except the airlines changed the carry on sizes, so a 770 was suddenly too big. |_e_/~ Dennis Barton ) skylab2000 ~\/\ Brainforest Productions, Los Angeles / http://skylab2000.com - Sent by the sgroup mailing list on lists.uunet.ca For subscription information, send mail to majordomo@lists.uunet.ca and see http://www.generalconcepts.com/sgroup/ for more information. >From owner-sgroup Fri Jun 29 14:38:24 2001 Received: by hugin.uunet.ca id <193709-29842>; Fri, 29 Jun 2001 14:38:16 -0400 Received: from hall.mail.mindspring.net ([207.69.200.60]) by hugin.uunet.ca with ESMTP id <193708-29842>; Fri, 29 Jun 2001 14:38:05 -0400 Received: from smui03.slb.mindspring.net (smui03.slb.mindspring.net [199.174.114.22]) by hall.mail.mindspring.net (8.9.3/8.8.5) with ESMTP id OAA14362 for ; Fri, 29 Jun 2001 14:38:03 -0400 (EDT) From: jsegovia@mindspring.com Received: by smui03.slb.mindspring.net id OAA0000025298; Fri, 29 Jun 2001 14:38:03 -0400 (EDT) Date: Fri, 29 Jun 2001 14:38:03 -0400 To: sgroup@lists.uunet.ca Subject: sgroup Roland Sample CDs & DA-400 Message-ID: X-Originating-IP: 207.121.233.3 Sender: owner-sgroup@lists.uunet.ca Precedence: bulk I've bought a few of the Roland-formatted sample CDs West LA Music has on sale for $29.00. I got the first shipment of four and I just ordered three more, but they seem to be going fast. They're already out of the 'Keyboards of the 60s/70s Vol. 2' CD. 'Anybody know a good source for that one? Also, they have the AD-400 convertors that let S-760 owners use eight individual outputs, for $299.00. I'd buy one but I don't need one that badly; I'm still trying to find one on the cheap at ebay.
