I updated my two TB-3s, and I love the new features. Especially the backup functionality and the assignment of sounds to patterns are my favorites. The sound assignment comes very handy when performing live. - Thank you for this great update!
Muy bien very good..buena maquina musical para hacer sonar esos sonidos especiales de la musica electronica..Bien animo y vayamos todos con alegrias y felicidades...Very good, very good...good musical machine to play those special sounds of electronic music...Good cheer and let's all go with joy and congratulations...
I've got a problem with mine. The restore function doesn't seem to work. Everytime I do it exactly as the video tells you to, and it's always the same patterns, not the old ones I backed up before and now restore, but the ones that were already on the tb3... I updated the tb3 again, but that didn't change anything so I don't know.
How about an update where we get the decay parameter present on the original assigned as a second function of the fx knob, seriously, I cant beleive a decay knob wasnt included, its part of the sound.
@Django Fett yeah but the touchpad doesnt give u the control and finite tweakability of knobs... Honestly the whole interface needs an severe update... easy doen with a firmware kick in the pants
@RolandChannel Is it possible to save whole midi( set up in DAW) pattern sent to tb3 from a DAW under PTN SELECT menu BUTTON and there under selected pattern button? Will be grateful for info how to do it. It would help make great melodies, bass lines much faster and easier and save them in tb3 than doing it via tb3's screen.... It would be a great function in tb3 with such a option...
I've just copped a TB3. Very impressed. I do have a few questions though. Q1: I have extended pattern length to 32 steps but Scatter only works on the first 16. Can I get Scatter to act on all 32 steps? Q2: Is the User Banks simply a case of bookmarking favourites or is there a way to import original patches? (if the latter, how?). Q3: When will Roland catch up with Korg and Novation and enable the recording of knob twiddling on the Airas? Seems odd that the fully-digital TR8 and TB3 don't allow for "Motion/Automation" recording when the (semi analog) Korg Volcas do. Q4: Is the Aira range done'n'dusted or are there any new Aira devices on the horizon?
"* The Scatter effect will not apply to the first cycle of the loop; the effect will apply to the second and subsequent cycles of the loop." from the manual.
Thanks for these useful tutorials. Maybe it's me but I do find all these button combos hard to remember!! :) maybe you could pass on to the devs how great it would be to have some form of editor to conduct these "housekeeping" tasks. Just a thought.
Agreed! These button combos aren't intuitive to remember, at *all* that's for sure. There's got to be significant improvement made in that area. Regarding your idea for an "editor", would that be in the form of software that resides on a TB-3-connected computer?
You'd think that how to determine which version one has on their TB-3 would've been mentioned at the start of this otherwise fine video, yet here's how, from Roland: Please check the version of the system working on your TB-3 before downloading the archive file. 1. Hold down [ STEP REC ] button and [ REALTIME REC ] button, and switch on the power. The step number "1" of the 16-step indicators and the [PLAY/ STOP] button blink. 2. Press the [ PLAY/STOP ] button. The current version is displayed with three digits on the display. ( When Version 1.04 is used: 104 ) 3. After checking version of the product, power off the TB-3 without performing any button operation. * Don't perform the update if the product is already up-to-date.
Hi maybe i've missed it. Is it possible to make midi notes pattern on pianoroll in ableton and save it as preset pattern on tb3? Will be grateful for reply....
you guys really need to make a video on how to use this with your DAW for recording I can't find any info on how to use my TB3 with fl studio online and your midi document on roland's website doesn't say much I can't understand I'm new to this please help me!
why no update since nearly 4 years,..?? (also contacted roland support twice) sequencer has bugs like playing notes, that were already deleted.. (on youtube: roland tb 3 bug) expected company policy from the R....
hello,I have a t3 and I have changed all the patterns that were originaly on it. how do I reset it so all the original patterns come back on it ? I have updated the tb3 but it just restores the patterns that I have made.how do I get the originals back please ??? thnx

can it play 2-3 seq. patterns at once, SUPERIMPOSING all on top of each other ? can each pattern, or each NOTE b e diff . bass sound ? or this is only done by special software and mixers, thereby negating need of tb 3 altogether ?
what bug is that? I havent had any issues so far... Im actually annoyed that Roland still havent released a proper editor for this, when theres a HUGE plethora of functions (inc modulation and effect controls) which this box wont access on its own...

Wow!!! Thanks Roland... my TB3 has functions that it really needed.

Whoa! The TB-3 just became even more awesome!
thank you! awesomE video...now, just need a Midi CC for pattern # to integrate better with external sequencer, and the TB-3 will be perfect!!!
Thank you for this amazing piece of technology!!! :D

is there anywhere you can download instructions for the new update? Or should I just watch this video everytime I forget what does what. cool
hello roland is there supposed to get a answer ? any time ?
How about an update where we get the decay parameter present on the original assigned as a second function of the fx knob, seriously, I cant beleive a decay knob wasnt included, its part of the sound.
yes!! decay is a must have knob!!
Volume and effect knobs could be env and decay, with shift + knobs to adjust

Can you fix the issue with accents not triggering after a slide! That would be really helpful!

Will this new update let you trigger midi notes n the tb -3 from an external midi key board.Simple but it does not seem to address this
…17, turn your head and spit into the wind three times; throw salt over shoulder, mix with soil, eat.
Why the extended realtime transpose range doesn't work on my tb3 , the keyboard button stay green

Pier Sam did you ever figure it out? If so...tips?
why no update since nearly 4 years,..??
(also contacted roland support twice)
sequencer has bugs like playing notes, that were already deleted..
(on youtube: roland tb 3 bug)
expected company policy from the R....
same problem here .
@@outofnowhere9262

@@lars-fenin yep time to sell it and get the td3 of behringer analog for 150 dolars
Very nice indeed
I'm not able to change bank with midi program change

Anyone been able to get a clean audio out when using usb? Mine sounds like crap unless I use the psu and disconnect the usb.

Factory reset
I know Ableton has a digital remote for this to integrate into the DAW, was wondering if anyone has one with FL studio
Thanks
really good :)
do you need a special remote control to use tb 3 as a external ? i connect mine by MIDI with an akai mpk 25 but doesnt work

can each pattern, or each NOTE b e diff . bass sound ?
or this is only done by special software and mixers, thereby negating need of tb 3 altogether ?
nice question I was wondering the same
Buy 2-3 of them and SUPERIMPOSE them. Now it wasn't that hard was it?
My machine 'forgets' my favourite patches in the user bank when i turn it off. Is anyone else having the same issue??
Yep. That's happened to me. I'm not sure why. But other then that, I'm really happy with the update, particularly with the expanded sequencer range!
+zigular909 The userbanks are when i ´m right only for the sound.You can save your pattern under the normal Banks 1-8
Nacht Kind I know they only save the sound not the pattern but still thats what i meant
yes , is there any solution for that??
that's it I'm getting it
I can't input notes on the TB3 Step Sequencer, using an external keyboard,
does anyone knows how to work around that ? Thks
u cant to as a step sequencer . only when u hit the button called realtime . shit thing !
Wait, how can I set the pattern free of sound assignment? Can't understand his bloody English. "Select blank on the far left?!" What blank button?
GOT NEW ONE:-)
when i lock a pattern all other patterns are locked too, same behavior on tr 8, can not lock individual patterns. does anybody have the same issue ?
same
San Jacob I get that on the TR8 but not with the TB3
La meme chose en Français, ce serait parfait.
the lack of a complete manual for this device is a absolute no go. like srsly ... wtf
color change please!!
wow how generous, 15 sounds LOL. Well at least it's better than the none of before.
Ok i see 15
hmm
whot? :p doubting much? :D
thanks for never fixing the tb3 bug. made mine useless
what bug is that? I havent had any issues so far...
Im actually annoyed that Roland still havent released a proper editor for this, when theres a HUGE plethora of functions (inc modulation and effect controls) which this box wont access on its own...
Zzzzzzz....
DON'T DO IT .
Thanks
