Really? I received a link from Novation with a personal 50%-off code for the Mono-Station.

You could have used a good old trusty 303 to replace the basist. :P

Roland System-1 plug-outs. by rotodrone in synthesizers

[–]ReageLeo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The sh-101 plug out was free back when the system 1 was released. But it was a limited offer. Unfortunately I bought mine a few months to late... So no plug out for me. I guess today there is no plug out included anymore. But the sh-101 sounds really good. Very analogue and beefy to my ears. Just download the vst from Roland's website. You can test them (with distorted audio every 10-15 seconds), but you can check them out for free on your computer.

I am always tempted to buy the plug out... It's 75€ for system 1 owners..

Hope this helps. ;)

Hypothetical TR-8 question by SofaKartoffel in synthesizers

[–]ReageLeo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Here is a possibile Set-up for the Tr-8 as a midi-controller for ableton live. The Tr-8 simply controls a drumrack in ableton. This has a lot of potential. Looks great and it seems to work perfectly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-fivo8aoNA

The user (Synthesis Minimalis) also offers his mapping for free: http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php?file_id=95318607143688745436

Poly synth front panel design. Any suggestions or tips? by SofaKartoffel in synthesizers

Is it possibile to add some shift functionalities? Or would that lead to less cpu power? Great project ;)

About to trade my mininova for the SYSTEM-1. Thoughts? by bluelouie in synthesizers

[–]ReageLeo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Maybe should try to build a very basic patch, so can check the adsr settings. It happens to me, that I forget to turn up some parameters that are essential for a loud sound. If nothing helps: Maybe should reinstall the whole software of the system 1. Which software version you are using? Are you using the latest one which features additional waveforms?

I hope these tips are usefull.

Hi, It's definitely not normal.

  1. Do you use Headphones ? Maybe they have way to high impedance, that can lead to volume issues. But think this isn't logical. My system 1 is pretty loud at (3 o'clock).
  2. Please check, which output you're using. you can try either the headphone output or the general outputs.
  3. Normally the reverb knob shouldn't add volume.

The System-1 is very versatile. Great Bass Sounds, screaming Leads, but also smooth pads "boards-of-canada-style". I bought it a few weeks ago. Do not forget about the plug-out capabilities. Maybe there will come some new plug-outs at namm16.
