 Posted: Sun Nov 12, 2017 12:12 pm Post subject: Direct Set feature is actually incomplete ! |
 |
|
If I had developed Pa4X or any future Pa model with "Direct" SETs feature , I would had devoted an extra flash Rom area
of 400Mb in order users could easily monitor in real time any Direct SET with samples without the need of loading external
resources in their main setup and disorder it ... this is the actual meaning of Direct SET feature for power users !!!
At least a few Mb of buffer flash Ram would be enough to support extra SOUND/PAD that Direct set uses and not to point
at main SET user internal Banks ... Is it so difficult for Pa developers to realize the obvious ?

Pa-Keyboards like Pa4x / Pa1000 have DirectSet function and some good Sample functions to be used with USER-Samples.
But there is a drawback that EACH USER-SAMPLE MUST BE PRESENT IN INTERNAL MEMORY BEFORE USED WITH DIRECT-SET.
If you have to perform LOAD functions before using DIRECT SETs that is not really a Direct Sets workflow.
Besides, it is necessary to be careful with LOAD functions of User Sounds, so that does not happen an unintentional delete of current Usersamples and User-Multisamples during Load function. Next it is necessary to manage User sounds in Direct Set to be used planned and once you no longer need user samples of the direct sets again there is necessary an operation to reload no longer needed User Samples.
Maybe it is not so difficult developers could prepare Direct Set features for power users as Anthony suggested?

@Antony, siebenhirter
Well said and agree.
I've already mentioned in the wish list and I had a post about the confusion of Direct Access with sets including samples longtime ago.
I hope Korg will pay more attention to our wish list and will correct/modify some of them which are doable in next update.
FYI,
Regarding the Direct Access here is what I added in the wish list:
"Direct Access improvement: Ability to play Styles directly (containing Samples/Waves without loading them into Ram memory) from any media like USB flash drive, SD card, etc." |

Maybe the mentioned way of how really Direct Set function should work is a "must" wish , but I've also wrote the way
that this could be achieved !
The fact that extra 400Mb of internal Ram are required , this memory space could also be used to double the custom samples
and maybe this could be most important for KorgPa to advertise than Direct Set feature plus the hardware issues that will be
revealed in order to achieve such a real time function !
Just for the story
