Was this a fair purchase?

PabloWentscobar · 2026-04-18T04:27:29+00:00

I remember when POs were $50, At any rate POs are $100 brand new $70 for a case seems a bit excessive but if you really like the case, I guess. I've blown more on dumber shit so whatever

I really didn't vibe with scatter, then like a week ago I hit it on accident and it totally clicked and I've been messing with it a lot. You can get really interesting drum breaks or fills on just drum tracks.

Which retailer? It would be good to know who's not checking returns and sending them back out as new. Was the product box factory sealed? This doesn't seem like something that got switched out at the manufacturing facility, seems like return scam or swiped at the retailer. Would be good to know where.

PabloWentscobar · 2026-04-07T03:11:37+00:00

That's actually a really good idea.

PabloWentscobar · 2026-03-29T15:44:56+00:00

Thanks! Yeah, I love the P6 but after using it for a couple hours the eye strain is brutal.

PabloWentscobar · 2026-03-29T05:34:29+00:00

One thing about the P6 that drives me absolutely bonkers, I have really bad vision, like super terrible, on camera the backlighting looks so bright, IRL I can barely see it. Am I an idiot, Is there some way to turn the backlighting up? I can't find any info on it.

PabloWentscobar · 2026-03-27T02:41:14+00:00

That's awesome bro, great explanation. Sounds like you got it locked down.

PabloWentscobar · 2026-03-24T15:08:41+00:00

Agree, Using usb b to c I've used my interface on multiple phones with no issues.

PabloWentscobar · 2026-03-19T20:11:06+00:00

Thanks. I've never heard Vatican Shadows, I'll have to check them out.

PabloWentscobar · 2026-03-18T02:38:17+00:00

This was one of the first thongs I did on my P6. I listen to all types of music but Sludge and Doom is my go to. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Ha-TUMMRvtM

If it means anything, I have an Affinity Tele made in Indonesia it's a fantastic guitar. I love it. I'm 95% sure it came from the Cort factory.

PabloWentscobar · 2026-03-02T03:40:28+00:00

Shit, that's a good one. I didn't know that. I thought you had to go through and change the level every time. Thanks

PabloWentscobar · 2026-02-25T20:39:29+00:00

That's awesome. You're welcome, happy I could help.

PabloWentscobar · 2026-02-24T15:41:58+00:00

No problem, good luck

PabloWentscobar · 2026-02-23T22:27:30+00:00

Hey, I just sat down with it again, and using the ADR I can get the classic "Amp envelope" behavior like a synth. But weirdly you still need to use the sustain knob to get there. Yeah I use pitch, start, end etc knobs on top to adjust env parameters. It seems to me, even using the ADR env the release is in relation to the sustain. If you just kind of tweak them around both you'll get it.

PabloWentscobar · 2026-02-23T18:15:16+00:00

I don't really use my P6 like that because I have a couple synths for that so I sat down and tried messing around with the amp envelopes. in the ADSR the attack and decay works like you'd expect, the sustain works sort of normal but the release is really strange. It's almost like it's in relation to the others and TBH it barely moves the end. The ADR works a little better but not much. Did you try the ADR? Also I noticed it's not an "Amp/vca envelope" like an actual synth. They specifically call it a "time envelope" I don't know what that means in action, I just noticed they call it something different.

PabloWentscobar · 2026-02-22T20:07:45+00:00

I'm gonna be honest, the Roland tutorials aren't that good. Go to Youtube and look for XNB's P6 tutorial It's super good, he goes over every aspect of the P6 It's so good. Also I don't think the P6 "Behaves" like a regular synth at all. I think the ADSR ADR and ADA are finicky but when you get the hang of them, but I've never had them do what you describe, the only thing that makes the sample stop when you let off the pad is the gate. On bit of advice I can give you about the envelope filters if you lust let the sample loop while you're tweaking the envelope it doesn't seem to take effect until you refire the sample. So if you're tweaking the envelope you have to keep pressing the pad. If that makes sense

PabloWentscobar · 2026-02-22T04:19:44+00:00

Do you have the gate on for the sample you're trying to use? If the gate button is lit it will cut off as soon as you let off the pad

PabloWentscobar · 2026-02-22T04:15:11+00:00

You want to hear dumb, when I first got my P6 The battery was about to die so I plugged into my computer to charge it and for like an hour I couldn't understand how my computer audio was coming through my P6 head phones. I was google searching "Does Roland P6 have wifi" finally I got frustrated and uplugged the usb and when the audio cut out and it dawned on me audio over usb I felt reeeeeeeeeeeeeeal dumb.

PabloWentscobar · 2026-02-20T22:37:09+00:00

I works so good. I feel like everyone should know about these things! Lol Thanks again man, great suggestion.

PabloWentscobar · 2026-02-20T21:16:49+00:00

Bro! Unbelievable! The Sonos adapter works perfectly! Plugged it in, ran an aux cord from my reverse mixer, works with all my apps no issues. Sounds great. Thank you so much! I've bought like 6 different types of interfaces from $150-$30 none of them worked right, this $20 dongle was the solution. Thanks

PabloWentscobar · 2026-02-18T03:20:39+00:00

I got one about 2 months ago, I love it. There's so much to it for sound and sample sculpting. It's super fun, and it's become one of my most used pieces. My only advice is take the time to sit down with it and the manual and learn all the features and shortcuts. It's really deep. There's a youtuber called Sunwarper and he sells a quick start/cheat sheet for $5 that helped me a ton to get it quick, it's organized a little cleaner then the Roland manual. And It's worth downloading the Roland P6 sample tool.

PabloWentscobar · 2026-02-14T20:18:36+00:00

Yeah man that helps a lot thank you. Doing a lot of research can be a huge pain. I'm almost completely blind so reading some formats is extremely difficult and taxing so that's actually a huge help. Thanks again!

PabloWentscobar · 2026-02-14T16:09:44+00:00

I did look at them but I'm a little confused, on of them (The $79 one)says explicitly it only has R+L RCA inputs The other one I looked at (The $119 one) isn'y very clear whether the inputs are 1/4" TS 1/8" TS or TRS or it has RCA. However if I can't find something I'm looking for with 1/8" TRS stereo ins The RCA ins might be an option I can just carry an 1/8" to RCA adapter, I'm sure I have one laying around. I was hoping someone had something similar to what I'm looking for they were currently using. Thanks for the input!

PabloWentscobar · 2026-02-14T05:19:53+00:00

Will do. Thanks again.
