ROTH MUSIC Reply-To: david@roth-music.com (David A. Roth) Message-Id: <0105009A.kp24o1@david.roth-music.com> X-Mailer: uAccess - Macintosh Release: 1.6v2 Status: RO I just had a strange thing occur with my S-330 I wanted to share with you all. I was loading some samples (piccolo samples) so I could have nice jumpty-jolly woodwind disk. Anyway, when it came to the Piccolo-8 (which I really didn't need at the moment) there was only 0.4 of memory available and the sample was 0.8. I figured, what the hell, I will load it and if it doesn't let me fine, if it does it "might" just give me something useful. So I loaded it and it acted like nothing was wrong and it did show that the Piccolo-8 sample was now .4 in length on the new disk. I didn't assign Piccolo-8 to anything since I really didn't need it. I start checking out the ranges of some of the other woodwind samples when I discover a very ulgy sound in the middle of the oboe range. I find out there is a problem with one of the Oboe samples. So I delete it and reload a fresh copy. The same thing went strange with the Clarinet too. I never had this problem before. The only strange thing I can think of that I did was tell it to load a .8 sample when only .4 of memory was available. There may be no way for it to handle this and ends up trashing other samples someway. And no...I didn't try it again to see if the problem would repeat. I've got real stuff in the studio I needed to get done, you know. :-) Best regards, David david@roth-music.com From lotus.uwaterloo.ca!sgroup-owner Mon Jan 3 03:21:24 1994 Received: from lotus.uwaterloo.ca ([129.97.140.9]) by watdragon.uwaterloo.ca with SMTP id <88186-2>; Mon, 3 Jan 1994 03:21:19 -0500 Received: from volitans.MorningStar.Com ([137.175.2.11]) by lotus.uwaterloo.ca with SMTP id <42>; Mon, 3 Jan 1994 03:15:40 -0500 Received: from trigger.MorningStar.Com by volitans.MorningStar.Com (5.65a/93052901) id AA09644; Mon, 3 Jan 94 03:10:12 -0500 Received: by trigger.MorningStar.Com (5.65a/93081601) id AA01762; Mon, 3 Jan 94 03:10:10 -0500 Received: by david.roth-music.com (uA-1.6v2); Sun, 2 Jan 94 14:27:08 EST From: david@roth-music.com (David A.

I figure with all the SAMDISK software floating around and since this feature exists on some S-550 versions I am told, it might be a fun software project for someone who is into that sort of thing to write extended features for the S-330. What I am thinking of (on the Mac since this is what I use) is an extended set of features to SAMDISK that would allow the user to read in several S-330 disks to hard disk. Then sort out which samples and what patch/sample couples go together, added up and see if they will fit into the Wave banks, and if so, then write a new S-330 SAMDISK file which could then be written back out to disk.

The problem you encountered is not so much a "bug", but rather a "poor programming practice and lack of O/S robustness" in the S-330 and S-series sampler O/S in general. My S-550 does the same thing when you try to load a sample from disk into a sample tone slot of smaller memory size than the sample to be loaded. The O/S WILL load the sample from disk into the memory slot, but will chop off the excess bytes (samples) to fit it into the existing smaller target memory slot. They really should have printed a warning message "Hey, I will truncate this sample !!! OK ??" It is interesting to note that SampleVision does NOT let you do this, at least I can't make it do it. When I try to send a sample from my PC in SampleVision to my S-550, there must be an existing memory slot or target "tone" set up on the S-550 of sufficient size to receive the entire sample from SampleVision. I must first do a "dummy" sample on the S-550 of X seconds and record nothing to set up the tone slot to receive the sample from SampleVision. I only have to do this if I am starting from scratch in the S-550 and I have completely blank tones and patches in memory at the time. Am I correct in describing this ?? I would like to hear from other S-series owners and SampleVision users who have encountered or are familiar with the above mentioned procedures.

I went home and copied the file to the hard drive on the PC. Finally I used SDISK to transfer the file to a 720K disk on my PC. When I try to boot my W-30 with the new disk, it seems allright in the first place. The display says W-30 ver 1.10 and the floppy drive is active (readhead is moving) for a short time.

Please note that my dd examples are geared towards UNIX SVR4.2 UnixWare and the device names for the disk drive may be a wee bit different for SUN-OS or other brands of UNIX. I like SDISK.EXE, I think it is great, but there are other methods of copying raw disks if it gives you problems. The UNIX dd method is very handy. It doesn't know or care about what's on the disk to be copied, it just does a direct binary copy, sector by sector, raw. You just have to use the same size media 720K floppy to 720K floppy.

Status: R Greetings! I just picked up a used S-550 and would like to be able to edit samples in Sound Designer II. I can't seems to get SDII to get the samples out of the S-550. The SDII manual only mentions turning exclusive on and setting the device ID, which I have done. But I get no response from the S-550 when I request "Sampler -> Mac". If I put the S-550 in MIDI monitor mode I can see the hex for the request on the S-550 video, but the S-550 send nothing in response. So I know the S-550 is receiving the request. I also know the S-550 is capable of sending MIDI as I was able to pull the patch names down into Galaxy (Lib/Ed). Do I have to have something I've missed setup in the S-550? I didn't get a manual with the used S-550, but a friend has read much of it to me over the phone. There doesn't seem to be much info on sample dumps. Do I need a different version of the S-550 system? I have tried 1.01 (came with the unit) and 1.11 (came on most of the sample lib. I got). Could it be the version of SDII? I have SDII 2.3. Any input on this would be appreciated.

Status: R Hi Keith, I have zero experience with SDII and the same amount with sample dumps with the S550. It looks like you have the S550 ready to go. Here's a stupid question. Is SDII sending out the _correct_ request? That is to say, does it know that it is an S550 on the other end of the MIDI cable? And another stupid question. Is the S550's MIDI out connected to the Mac's MIDI in? Sorry for being so basic, but these items weren't mentioned in your post and sometimes these "little" things get overlooked, even by the pros, especially if there is a MIDI patcher in between the two units. Good luck and I hope somebody with experience in these matters tells you what's REALLY needed to get your dumps going. By the way, have you tried the Mac -> Sampler direction?

Although I've been doing this for some time, it seems that the most troublesome problems have the most basic solutions. I do have both the ins and outs connected. I use an Opcode Studio 5 interface which provides 15 ins and outs. I don't really know if the request sent by SDII is correct as I don't have the S-550 manual and what I've been read over the phone from the MIDI charts is pretty cryptic. I also did try Mac -> Sampler without luck. Again, Thanks for taking the time to respond. Ain't it great when you can get help even before the vendors start answering their phones!!

At least I set them this way at the time and everything has worked fine since. Just to wrap up the basic questions. Have you set SDII to communicate with the S-550 specifically.

In-Reply-To: Mail from 'rhf@ismennt.is (Rikhardur H Fridriksson)' dated: Mon, 17 Jan 1994 17:24:48 -0500 Cc: rhf@ismennt.is Status: R Thanks much for the reply! After much fooling with the machine and looking at hex dumps of the data going between the S-550 and the Mac, I arrived at the same solution late last night. With my limited knowledge of the MIDI spec my best guess is that Sound Designer II is sending the device ID offset 1 down. I set SDII for ID 2 and the S-550 to ID 1 and it works great. I did try Digi's tech support yesterday, but they were on holiday. Oh well, nothing a little hacking can't solve.

I have written a Tool to transmit Midi Sample Dump Standard to my Computer and vice versa. Every time my S-750 retrieved a Sample it adds one SampleWord. I traced this Error with help of Nic also on a PC to make sure this is an Error in the S-750 OS. I use the OS 2.21. Is there somebody listening form Roland or where can I come in contact with the Roland Developers? Ciao, Frank.

I have a friend with an older Roland sequencer, MC-520 I believe. It stores sequences on a 3.5 in diskette but he doesn't know format of disk or whether the files are standard MIDI format or not. I have gobs of standard midi stuff that he's interested in. Is there anyway for me to exchange files with him? Any help most appreciated.
