I'd like a version of this file to be distributed as part of the Rosegarden library. I've created three files with almost the same content, for ease of editing and ease of use. The most useful for music creation is the studio device file with the separate CM-64 map, the rest of the maps being merged into one SC-8850 device. Both devices can be applied to the same midi port/device anyway, as I'm sure you know. That way, the different MSB/LSB method for the CM-64 variations is easier to navigate in Rosegarden's GUI. The "single-device" file is there just because I tried it (merging all maps), but due to the CM-64 map's MSB/LSB difference, it's awkward to browse when creating music (certain CM-64 variations are grouped under capital tones they aren't related to). The easiest to edit is the one including "all-separate-devices". Also, the compatible maps may be imported into other similar devices' studio files (although I'm not sure Roland kept the variation names exactly the same for each incarnation in this line of sound modules). I believe this is mostly compatible with the SC-8820 too, but the documentation seems to say there should be a difference in the number of tones between the 8820 and 8850. The difference isn't in the 8820 studio file, though, which only includes the 8820 map. (I used it as a base for the 8850 map, obsessively editing wherever I noticed differences in names, but I never had to add, remove, or change variation numbering). Thanks for your consideration, Lucas |

I am creating a standalone studio definition for the CM-64 with help from the MT-32 file already included, and noticed its controllers and drum set keymapping, neither of which I'd considered for the SC-8850... That made me investigate it, and now see how the SC-88 studio's creator managed multiple drum keymaps. There are so many of them for the SC-8850 that it will take me quite a while to define them all, but this time I'm copy/pasting from the SC-8850 PDF manual (which contains embedded text) so it's easier in that respect. I've also already defined all the controllers. One feature I don't think Rosegarden supports yet is aftertouch (the SC-8850 can use "Channel"-only aftertouch, not "Key" aftertouch). It's not a (single?) controller, as I understand it, and think it would probably have to be defined with a different "type" argument, as "pitchbend" is. So far, I've added a commented out reminder line for it. I have no aftertouch keyboard anyway, but it could be a useful feature for some.

There's I'm finally, again, satisfied with my SC-8850 studio files. They include an additional duplicate SC-8850 map for LSB0 (the bank selected by the button on the front panel) allowing for greater GS sound module compatibility, all controllers defined (except aftertouch, which doesn't seem possible at the moment) and all drum set keymappings! I hope everyone enjoys them and there's still enough time to include them in the upcoming Rosegarden release. These are probably easily the biggest studio files available ever Thanks again!

I'm so sorry... Again, I noticed and corrected some structural problems (metronome instruments, instrument ids, a saved connection to one of my ports, and an unnecessary buss defined in the separate devices file. I now think I've been over every inch of the files and think they must be done besides possible future typo corrections. So here is the (hopefully) final version, and an initial (also hopefully final) Roland CM-64 studio file (with all it's possible card permutations, each as a completely standalone separate device). I hope they're still in time for the next Rosegarden release. Again, I'm sorry to be such a perfectionist pest, and thanks for their inclusion, On Wed, Nov 15, 2017 at 7:23 AM, Ted Felix <te...@te...> wrote: > On 11/15/2017 01:26 AM, Lucas wrote: > >> I hope everyone >> enjoys them and there's still enough time to include them in the upcoming >> Rosegarden release. >> > > Thanks.

Thanks again! That's great to hear. If, or more likely when, I notice more that should be improved I'll let you know.

I just bought one of the CM-64 (SN-U110) cards I had mapped in the Roland-CM-64.rgd file I previously contributed, specifically the SN-U110-02 "Latin & F.X. Percussions" card. Sadly, it was missing much of a couple of its percussion keymappings. Here is the corrected version to distribute. There are still quite a few of these cards I don't own (in order to verify, especially since online documentation for them is scarce) so I expect there may be more far-future corrections. Although, as they can be expensive, I may never perfect it to my satisfaction. At least this card was one of the more tricky/complex ones, and the SN-U110-03 "Ethnic" card I also bought seems correct. On Wed, Nov 22, 2017 at 9:49 PM Lucas <jaf...@gm...> wrote: > Thanks again!
