But yeah, I wish I can seamlessly create the patterns&patches here and there; sketch on the 101, work on the 707, final polish in the editor, use some zencore patches there and final production/performance on the 707 again. Would be great ;-)

I did download and install the .exe without any issues, but when I run the editor it shows an alert saying that my device is outdated. I tried to update via usb cable following the instructions on the roland website (copy and paste the bin file into the tr6s driver folder), but nothing happened (device shows the no update file was found message). Does anyone knows how to proceed?

    • @HenningSprang
      @HenningSprang 2 года назад +4

      As a software developer I can tell that it's not as easy as one might think to support 11 years of various operating system versions. While I have also some dislikes about the way Roland makes their software (usability of the Roland Cloud app and some plugins is horrible in my opinion), at one point developers have to say you need some kind of recent OS version. They might also assume that computers older than 10 years just don't have enough computing power anymore, and there are just a hand full of people using devices that old.
      But I am also a huge fan of open source software, where you can decide yourself to learn some programming and make software work on the platform/OS version of your choice as you wish, or pay someone to do so.

    • @laurencevanhelsuwe3052
      @laurencevanhelsuwe3052 2 года назад +2

      @@HenningSprang I'm a software engineer myself, so I get your comments about "at one point devs have to say.." The thing with an editor for almost any drum machine is that an editor is 90% user interface and 10% data communications (I'm simplifying of course). Such functional dimensions do not require any newer OS. A 15-year old Apple OS could do this.. so then the question becomes: what silly little feature of a newer OS did a Roland dev allow into the editor's list of dependencies? In my experience, less experienced developers are not as conscious about dependencies to external libraries or OS APIs as they ought to be. Worse still, often such introduced dependencies cannot even be justified when the negatieve impacts on users are taken into account. Anyway, as a TR-8S owner, it totally sucks that this editor refuses to install on my older machine.

    • @HenningSprang
      @HenningSprang 2 года назад +1

      @@laurencevanhelsuwe3052 well then we talk from expert to expert... but then you also know, that the problem is not necessarily the features that are required on the OS, but the changing API's to be used in each major version of the OS to, especially the GUI components, and having to support 4 or 5 major OS versions also means a huge increase in testing to make sure it works well on all of those...
      Anyway, I am also not happy with a bunch of things they do with their software in general, had many strange plugin problems (so not being a full subscriber anymore because I only pay for properly working software), and the cloud manager is very weird, and they do not get the TR Editor to properly work on different resolutions/scaling settings of the retina or hidpi displays.
      My preference would be they get this straight for the current and previous major OS versions first before support >10 year old things - but that will change as soon as my own hardware is > 10 years ;)
