Roland Cloud

[Examigan]

So it can’t be bought as a lifetime key? I probably have enough pianos anyway…

[ReiKru]

Roland = Woolworth

[osofaux]

As of yesterday Sound Canvas is no longer available in Roland Cloud Manager. For those of you who own the lifetime key, either DM me or reach out through customer support and we can assist you further.

DM sent.

Hey Examigan, for a limited time EARTH Piano is only available for Ultimate Members but will be available as a Lifetime Key soon.

no release notes.

doesn't show up as a plug in inside Logic when going to Roland instruments. computer restart didn't help. No manual online. No installation instructions. already lost 90 minutes of my day. sheesh.

Hey N 4 LIFE, the website gives all the most up to date information available. EARTH Piano should install just like any other Plug-In we offer. I'm not seeing any issues with it in Logic myself and have not heard of any issues so far. I've asked the team if they are seeing anything so I might reach out for more info if we start seeing this elsewhere. Has the issue been resolved so far?

[N 4 LIFE]

no, not resolved. updated roland cloud software. have downloaded Earth piano 3 times. restarted the computer. no dice. ultimate membership all paid up. what to do next? is it supposed to show up under 'roland cloud' in the VST list? help!

[N 4 LIFE]

it started working. will check it out. only documentation i can find is clicking 'help' and then a manual shows up.

It’s not that they can’t fix their code, if Jon with Roland is a reliable source of information. He stated two days ago that these cloud instruments are being updated to address the CPU bug issues, and that it has been a more challenging task than expected.

CPU bug issues

Roland Cloud plugins are made for engineers & programmers, not for musicians.
After almost 5 years I've managed to stumble upon a combination of settings which eliminates audio dropouts with these strange plugins.
Of course, I'm not going to share the solution - Ronald police will be after me!
They obviously want their users to suffer, and I certainly don't want to interfere.

Does it involve sacrifice to our many tentacled lord, C'thulu?

Hey frag, no one at Roland minds if you found a solution that works for you. We have our recommendations and sometimes people in the community discover their own. If it works for you then that's great! That being said, despite its faults, RCM does fix certain problems with each version (even if it sometimes creates others) if issues persist it's worth trying the latest version. But at the end of the day it's all your choice and we are just recommending solutions.

No, but you're very close.
I can tell you're an engineer.

[ChamomileShark]

I can tell you're an engineer.

Only in the Alien franchise sense. Black goo, anyone?

[Aloysius]

For some reason I thought frag said 'I can tell you are a stoner'.

[DashOfLime]

Looks like latest RCM fixed the plugin auth bug I was seeing with macOS Sequoia betas (v 3.1.9).

[N 4 LIFE]

already removed the Earth Piano. IMHO, it sounds awful.
