My studio area's getting a little packed, though, and I don't know about pulling in a PC just for that. On the PC side I'd be thinking Nemesys Gigasampler.

#Roland xv 5080 samples mac#
I can't recall the name, but there's one Mac soft-sampler in particular that is supposed to have a wonderful interface. I like the idea of flying in backup vocals, etc., but I've done hardly any of that. Anyway, although they aren't sample playback units, I'm sure I wouldn't mind the ability to sample. It's a low Emu, and I think the last time I looked into their low end unit, it was 32 voices. Then again, I noticed that the Emu ESI-2000 can deliver 64 polyphony and reach 128Mb with 72-pin SIMMs. Frankly, I've wondered about a Mac soft-sampler. I agree about the Kurzweil, but I think it might be a bit more, even with the current GREAT price, than I'm willing to go after having just purchased an 88 key weighted board. Although I'm not talking about using it live (where that wouldn't just be a problem, but could possibly lead to an actual show biz fatality - the A&R man leaves while you're loading up the sounds for your killer tune), my rather slow-paced, longsuffering manner in a studio environment might well go postal after a few sessions of that! However, I didn't know it could take 30 minutes to fill up 128Mb of sample RAM.

I'd heard about Yamaha's SSS (slow SCSI syndrome). Also, I'd like 64 voices of polyphony, although I suppose I could go with 32 *IF* the RAM was at least 64Mb. The inexpensive EMU only take 32 Mb of RAM, and I want at LEAST 64Mb. I've looked at hardware synths, but it seems like no one is making a playback only sampler anymore. I currently have no way to play back current 16-bit sample CD-ROM instruments, and I am looking for an inexpensive way to get that, while also getting the individual synth's own sound. I know there is a lot to say about the instruments as far as their onboard ROM goes, but I'm most interested in hearing how they fare as sample playback devices.

I'm not sure about the XV-5080.Īlso, I think some may need SCSI interfaces and some may already have that, so it is acknowledged that to do what I am talking about, if it doesn't have the SCSI, it would be needed to import CD-ROM samples.

I think the Kurzweil can have more sample RAM (128Mb?), but I think the EX5R is limited to 65Mb (64Mb plus the included 1Mb, which accounts for that odd number). another ROM-synth that can play back samples.

Well well well.C249 is measured at 13uF instead of 47uF.I think the rack is running hot and the big problem is the capacitors.aluminium capacitors doesn't like heat.a complete recap could be a good idea I think.Does anyone here have any experience with either the XV-5080 or EX5R as a sample playback device for playing back pro CD-ROM samples? I'd love to hear how they stack up with hardware samplers (just for playback) like AKAI or Emu, or with the Kurzweil K-2500R/K-2600R. I don't want to go back and test with the old original LDO but you can try in first intention to replace the three aluminium capacitors C79 + C71 + C75 to check if the problem is solved only by replacing these parts before to go further. When the bypass capacitors are replaced the ripple is even lower with the new regulator. and at the end the LDO if replacing caps doesn't workīut my unit works well now with the new regulator :) C75 -> the mine was measured at 5uF instead of 10uF -> replaced C71 -> the mine was measured at 6uF -> replaced C79 -> the mine was measured at 1uF instead of 47uF! -> replaced So for someone having the same trouble the best to be sure is to replace: I must make more tests because the capacitors even if they seems ok with multimeter, they looks bad under LCR meter with huge ESR. I've replaced the voltage regulator and the problem is gone! \o/Īnd even before to recap the PSU and without the test bypass capacitor connected. Also, the noise appears equally on all outputs - jacks, S/PDIF, and even the headphone output on the front panel.ĭo you think the unit can be repaired? Any other pointers you can give me? All help appreciated - I was just getting in to learning this classic piece of kit and now its ruined!! I'm pretty sure that the noise is being introduced BEFORE the effects, as I can hear reverb on the noise. The noise itself sounds a bit like a noisy pot being wiggled on an amplifier, but a bit more digital than that (if that makes sense). Some patches are affected worse than others, and a small number are not affected at all.

The noise only happens when notes are being played, but this is not your classic polyphony issue as the noise happens even if a single note on a regular, built-in patch is being played.

There is a crackling noise appeared on a large number of patches. However, it has developed a fault which pretty much renders the device useless. I recently acquired an old used XV-5080 which initially appeared to be in great condition.
