Hardware Samplers & MPCs / Re: roland s- series samplers
« Last post by smoot smooth.as.silk on July 09, 2025, 03:46:10 AM »
Does anyone here still use the old 12-bit S-series samplers from Roland? Like the S-10, S-50, MKS-100, S-220, S-330, and W-30, before the 16-bit machines? I love the raw sound and workflow.

synths - 1990s / Re: 19" Roland JV-880 (1992) multi timbral synthesizer module

Its a good machine. I love the JV series. I own the JV-1080.  Personally, I prefer a hardware synth to a VST. But that's a personal choice. Especially the Roland modules, which are no longer manufactured. A dying breed. But a very solid design. They still work 30 years later. Sometimes the capacitors, power supply, or LCD need replacing. The Rack version of the JV series shows that they are very solidly made with high-quality components. You rarely find defective machines online. I think you've made a good choice. Have fun!  Let me know what you think of this JV. I also think there will be demand in the future, as others discover its power and possibilities.

1990s / Power Supplies for Old School Daws
« Last post by zzefiro on July 09, 2025, 01:15:24 AM »
I'm afraid to run vintage audio cards in my G4 or Win 98se BX builds not knowing specifically how the power supplies are operating or testing at.
I'm not so worried about my WinXP laptop audio card setups for some reason.
Any guidance towards decent power supplies or power gurus that can help me out?
Thanks.

I think I may have this.  I feel like I've bought all your oldschooldaw cubase items from ebay, maybe?

You can find a lot of software and sound files of the original Roland samplers on this site https://www.sgroup.ca (sgroup.ca - Roland Sampler Users Group)

Editor for the Roland S-10 MKS-100 and S-220 https://www.sgroup.ca/archive/utilities/s10/s10manager/

I myself still have a Roland S-220 & S-330. The 220 with a virtual USB drive. Also an LCD screen connected to the S-330 with mouse. Roland made beautiful industrial designs in the years 1988/94 in my opinion. A lot of old stuff still works. Sometimes the capacitors need to be replaced or the power supply. Otherwise very stable. Hardware nowadays seems to be of much lower quality.
