  • Single take hardware jam for the HWJ group weekend challenge on the theme of "Toys"
    I figured the 1979 BigTrak toy needed a big track, so I added extra cheese to some cheesy cluby cheesy cheese.
    The first performance mode preset sequence on the Roland System 8 was just too horrendous not to use!
    Recorded from the stereo out of the MX-1 straight into Audacity with no editing, although it could use it in places...
    Video created in Adobe Premier Pro with B-roll and original video with additional Bigtrak footage can be found here: • Big Trak: Roland Syste...
    Unlisted version "Crack n Cheese Grommit" can be found here:

      Hey Steve! I picked up the M-VS1 from my old place earlier today too. Can't wait to use it alongside the System-8!
      Did you find the extra cheese version in the description?? Lol

      A bit of both! Lol Trying to fit the studio into a smaller homestyle rather than having it 25 miles away in a commercial building! There are pro's and cons lol
      It's good having immediate access to some gear though...

      So impressed with the Shom album am thinking of ordering the CD now. I would love to know if Ed Wynne has ever heard it ? !
      Much more exciting than the current Ozrics. They have gone off the boil.

      Hi lLudvig,
      I run my various synths through your SY1 MONO synthesizer pedal. It can be most bizarre....! LOL
      I take your point about the SY 200 being aimed at guitarists; however the MD 200 was absolutely 100 % aimed at guitarists....and that is STEREO !
      Anyway, I have made my point, and you have told me you will inform your BOSS ( pun intended ).
      So thanks....

      Hi again,
      absolutely no problem with the tone of your communication!
      In fact, we appreciate feedback like this.
      I do personally see the problem that you are pointing out. I just don't think this was the intended use of that pedal. Most, if not all, guitars are indeed mono and the SY-200 is made to be used with guitars. And that connected right after the guitar and converting the guitar tone to a synth-like one.
      That said, many musical applications are more interesting when "breaking the rules" so it would of course be interesting to hear what it could do to a synth.
      Best Regards
      Ludvig

      Hi Ludvig, Thanks for your reply, but without wanting to sound rude, I think you are missing the point of my comment. The other 200 pedals are all pressed exacactly the same size to form a pedal board, a STEREO pedal board at that. That to me is the main attraction, the whole idea, the selling point.
      The SY 200 throws the spanner in the works totally, breaks the STEREO linked chain. It is also the one a synth user would want the most after the delay.
      I am beside myself with amazement this has been overlooked. Regards, Steve

      Hi Steven,
      Yes, I'm having more fun with the DD-200 now as I made it a part of my "synth pedal setup".
      Thanks for your feedback about the SY-200! I will pass it forward, although that would of course not change its physical state.
      As I understand it, the intention is to use the SY-200 with input directly from a electric guitar or bass.
      I would assume that the engineers are correct in thinking that us synth geeks wont be the largest customer base for that model.
      Best Regards

      Hi Ludvig.
      I hope your experiments with the DD 200 Shimmer setting went well !
      I must express my astonishment/annoyance for the first time ever with Roland to be honest...
      I use the DD 200 and MD 200 pedals now, and both are twin channel stereo, great, how clever, perfect !
      I have had my eye on the rest of the line, make a full stereo set-up.
      I almost parted with £300 last night for the SY 200 synthesizer pedal. Something in my mind told me to check the inputs....
      To my horror it t turned out to be SINGLE CHANNEL MONO ? ! Sorry, but what on Earth went wrong there ?
      Someone has slipped up. It is unusable for my purposes, and you have lost a sale, possibly thousands of sales !
      Hmnnnnn
