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.

Yes yes.  I find it a useful tip (?) that Alchemy can do sample dump over MIDI to S-330 ... but as we know, W-30 cannot do sample dump over MIDI.  So, having an S-330 can be useful if you are also a W-30 user.  Use Alchemy with the S-330, then save to floppy, and load the floppy in the W-30, etc.

If you have a PC or Amiga, give Sample Wrench a look also...

Hey,

I remember some threads on this forum for getting SP Remote working with OMS via a MIDI Manager driver, which were really a miracle... you might have to search for "Peavey" though, your topic spells it Peavy (no e) which is a typo.

Attached are various versions of SP Remote (windows and Mac) and the manual.  Enjoy

Note that SP Remote wants a regular Serial Port MIDI or MIDI Manager, and to make it work with OMS or USB MIDI you'll need to find the posts on here about getting the OMS Midi Manager driver going etc.  It's not easy!

Good luck

Mac OS 9 (Oct 1999) / Boss DR-880 OMS driver

Hello -- according to the documentation, there was a CD which came with the Boss DR-880 that would have MIDI drivers for Mac OS 9.  I don't have the CD... and Roland/Boss don't have Mac OS 9 downloads available for the BR-880.  Does anybody have these miraculous files somewhere??  I'm almost ready to try installing every Roland OMS USB MIDI driver I can download from their site, just to see if any of them work... but I guess this is not an emergency.

there may be some outages between now + dec 5th 2025. hopefully not tho

the site will soon be hosted either in Denmark, or Philadelpha PA the great state of pennsylvania not that it matters

thank you to GODADDY for providing me with 10 years+ of hosting and price gouging me since covid. lol but by switching servers ill be saving myself around 440$ CDN so. i better get'er'done

if anyone wishes to donate to help pay for the webhosting anything helps! even 1$
http://paypal.me/oldschooldaw you can disregard teh msg about godaddy holding me hostage that was dealth with last time a few years ago, thanks again to that miracle donor who donated the 250$ all in one go, that was incredible, thank you for your generous support! there is no emergency situation now, my cost will be about 150$ instaead of 240$ would be nice to get half of the 150$ donated but yea, not a deal breaker if i dont. a good size donation from a user would be 5$  thanks guys
