Is Sound Canvas VA VST3 available for proper computers yet (obviously I'm referring to Windows)?

Seems there's an issue with signing in to RC accounts at the moment.

Edit: Looks like it's working fine now.

this has turned it to a bit of a big thread.

I just ran Roland Cloud, and it said there was an update for Zenology Pro. I approved it, but unexpectedly, it forced a system restart, without giving me the option to cancel.

Just to confirm, I found the following event in event log (Windows Logs/System):
The process C:\ProgramData\Package Cache\{d546cd4c-<guid>...}\ZENOLOGY.exe (MyMachineName) has initiated the restart of computer MyMachineName on behalf of user MyMachineName\Me for the following reason: Application: Installation (Planned)
Reason Code: 0x80040002
Shutdown Type: restart

So no new features ? Roland can you maybe just a add a midi learn midi cc for browsing through patches,not asking for anything too crazy here , but if you’re going to do an update like this maybe add a much needed feature

I have a M1 Macbook Pro with 16gb RAM. Quite a fast computer. But still the System 1 plugin can't operate without CPU spikes at latency's lower than 512 samples on Maschine or Presonus Studio One. I thought System 1 AU is M1 native. Is anyone else having problems using System 1 (and System

AU's instruments on a mac? I'm about to buy a second hand System 1m. So I can use that as a controller. But as long as the plugin is behaving this way, I think I won't invest in a hardware version.

I also can't run the System 1 plugin on my M1 MacBook Pro. It immediately spikes the CPU to 100% at any playable latency. The other Cloud instruments run fine, though some still are CPU hogs they are at least playable.

System 1 is clearly not optimised for M1. The system 8 on the other hand runs with extremely low CPU usage. I tested it in logic running in native mode. When checking the system 1 plug in version, it says that it is the ARM version.
I checked all the Roland cloud plugins, and nearly all of them have very low CPU usage - the JV1080 and XV-5080 are just as bad as the system 1.
I even tried reinstalling the system 1, to no avail.

Apart from presets is there anything the System 1 has that the System 8 doesn’t?

Good call. everything on system 1 exists on system 8, AFAICT

The sound is different.
Try to make the same sounds on both and you will hear that the filter is more in your face on the System 1 Compared to System 8.

It is like comparing the original Korg minilogue to the Minilogue XD or Prologue.

You can use the system 1 filter in the system-8 as a filter variation next to the juno/jp8 and the other exotic ones BPF/phase stuff

I know but it doesn't sound the same as the system 1.
Try to make the same sound on both using some resonance and you will hear the difference.
The System 8 seems to mellow out the highs compared to System 1.

Mogular · Post by **Mogular** » Thu Oct 13, 2022 9:59 pm

Agreed. Trying to match presets is almost impossible. You can get them sounding similar, but it's like the system 8 is a muted version of the system 1.
it's odd, because on paper they look like they have exactly the same architecture.
