    Hi Jack! Happy New Year! The Roland Plug-Outs work only with the System-8, System-1 and System-1M. The System-8 will run any plugout, the System -1 and System-1M are limited to simpler plugouts like the SH-101 (monophonic). Fantom EX can run ACB models (all plugouts are ACB) but the ACB models in Fantom are loaded in as a model expansion, not a plugout.

    Do NOT reward Roland for creating musical instruments YOU WILL NOT OWN. Do not buy subscription based instruments if you value yourselves as consumers and rightful owners of the stuff you *purchase*, no matter how shiny the toy is. There are always amazing alternatives out there - go reward them instead.

      Nothing wrong with leasing rather than owning. If you want to buy lifetime keys, you can. Nobody is holding a gun to your head to subscribe.

    • @MangoldProject
      @MangoldProject Před 5 měsíci

      @@BillVincent Absolutely agreed: nobody is holding a gun to my head, or anybody else's, which is why everybody reading this should exercise their right to vote with their wallets and punish subscription-based manufacturers. Here are a few things to keep in mind:
      1. From Roland's website: "GALAXIAS is available exclusively with Roland Cloud Ultimate membership". Done with your membership? Kiss your Galaxia license goodbye.
      2. A lifetime key is NOT ownership. From Roland's TOS: "Roland continues to offer the applicable Lifetime Membership Keys to users through the Roland Cloud Service. For clarity, references to “lifetime” or the “life of the Account holder” under this Agreement mean the natural life of the individual who registered for the Account, and such rights are not transferable, descendible, or inheritable. You do not need a Subscription to purchase a Lifetime Membership Key. .. . . If you remove, cancel or terminate your Account, or if your Account is terminated by Roland for violation of the Terms of Use or other policies or conditions provided to you, you will not be able to use the Lifetime Membership Keys you have purchased. There will be no refunds."
      So it's NOT yours, you cannot sell it, you cannot give it, and if Roland one day decides it's done with the cloud, or with you, kiss your "lifetime" key goodbye.
      Many small time manufacturers get this RIGHT. If you want to know what a reasonable license looks like, take a look e.g. at Reveal Sound's Spire (no connection to myself):
      www.reveal-sound.com/plug-ins/spire/knowledge-base/450
      You can use the software however you want. You can install it as many times as you want, on as many computers. You can resell it. Simple, easy, fair, and consumer-friendly.
      Choose your future.

    You can do the same thing if you have akai VIP 3..I've been doing this for ages.
    But where VIP beats it is you can layer any plugin not just Roland.
    Also you can have 8 layers plus you can use any FX plugin and it can be done in standalone or as a vst.

    Being able to "rent" a massive collection of synths would make a lot of sense... if you couldn't already just buy the Arturia V Collection for not a ton of money and own the software. Yes, they're not the same, but renting software is a no-go for a lot of people. You can buy all the Roland stuff, but it'd cost a massive amount of money, unlike the V Collection. However, if you're broke and you want to make an album, I could say where renting is more affordable in the short term. Or if you're a business, renting might work.

    • @budgetkeyboardist
      @budgetkeyboardist Před 5 měsíci +2

      Another note - The Roland Jupiter 8 uses like four times the CPU as the Arturia version. To my ears, they're comparable in terms of sound, but I might give a slight edge to the Roland version... but at 4 times the CPU, I'd still prefer the Arturia, as a budget-conscious musician,
