Hi all. FG Connects Live is scheduled for release end of April. This project has way more then just new patches, rhythm kits and patterns. We've created a really unique application of the RPS for real-time sound shaping. So we're working on documentation and videos to illustrate the new concepts and capabilities.

Regarding SH-01 effects spec, you have five inserts available and a sixth on the input for the center canceling. Sorry about the confusion. The effects can be adjusted in real-time as well for live performance. Also, someone asked if it is a 201 engine. Different engine, but an analog-modeling synthesizer nonetheless. Also, each waveform has seven variations. Should I do a video of an unboxing? :>)

FG Connects Live (Motion Phrases)-> is it about saving CC / SYSEX or whatever messages in a phrase and trigger it with RPS --- or am I mistaking somehow ?

I took the time to watch the video presentation. Are you absolutely certain the SH-01 has a new engine ? It sounds the same cold and metallic way as the previous VA from Roland :-/

It looks like the whole VA stuff is moving in circles, perhaps it's time for Roland to revert back to good plain old DCO gears.

vox, those demos didn't show much of what the SH-01 can do. And trust me it's sound engine is not based on the SH-201 at all. It's completely new, and sounds much warmer, as warm as the Fantom-G actually. Wait until you hear the demos of presets.

Well Done! A lot of really cool new live sets.

It sounded like:
zooooooooooooooooooooooooomschhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhebauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu :-)

- I only had a few minutes to hear it.
I heard some real good new Live-Sets with Natural sounds. Real good strings for instance and a very well programmes acoustic-nylon-dream guitar.
- Highlights are the new Synth-Live-Sets. Cool-morphing organic synth-sounds with a lot of functions on the pads like starting beats starting, arpeggios and so on. I onliy played it a few minutes - but I can promise You, that the sounds are very useful und inspiring.
I only hope, that there is way to mix those sounds with my own live-sets.

Thank You Roland!

New FG Connect ... great, I like the idea of using all the potential of the FG without the need to add additional hardware until later. Current ARX boards sound nice and I am certain that there will be more in the future. I find the FG to be an awesome workstation for my needs, CS.

Hello,

i noticed that the Live-Sets I played had some new User-Patches.
And You don´t need new samples for new Synthsounds. Old Synthesizers had only a few samples: Sine, Pulse, Saw. ;-)
