i personally can hear a difference using 2 different pairs of headphone. Not so apparent with AKG k171 but quite obvious with my Sennheiser HD 25-1. Reverb detail, level & generally the overall ambiance sounds better / clearer with V 1.1.1 Yes, this is my observation too. Now regarding the ...

.......You know that some law of conservation applies to the obtaining increased polyphony, right? Finite compute resources, increasing polyphony, reduction in accuracy/resolution of the processing or something like that....... You gain something, you will definitely lose something... I'm not agree ...

Ive gotta agree with Stephen on this one....was the sequence an exact copy?? There sounds slight variation in velocity to me from the two audio clips. Sorry you're having to go through all this but thats what I'm hearing.I'm listening on my Powerbook with a pair of Sennheiser HD25 headphones on,at ...

Unfortunately, this is all very subjective and non-scientific. :-k I'm not able to switch back and forth between 1.1 and 1.2. Are you actually reloading the OS back and forth, and reformatting your drive in between or something? If one had two machines side by side, that would be a different story ...

Try just listening to the first C3 note and audition it quickly back and forth using the play command on the OASYS. I notice a slight ambient effect being applied for the OS 1.2.1 version and it's less for the OS 1.1.0 version. Admittedly, the difference is not very easily perceptible in the WAV ...

Feedback anyone? I didn't bother to re-sample to hard disk using a MIDI file, because when I played back the combis and programs, the differences were readily apparent. It's as if I had a sonic imprint of how my OASYS used to sound earlier and I could immediately get a gut feeling/reaction that ...

I just finished the re-installation process after a full format of the hard disk and it's working now. I can also confirm that there is a perceptable difference in the audio between the two versions, sort of like a global master effect being enabled uniformly throught the system for both combis and ...

I agree. Especially if you are using the digital outs. Check that your global settings havent' been changed. I "lost" the EX2 Piano, for example after the upgrade. Also, clock settings (internal vs. external and clock sync rate) could have been reset. Elvis - But have you looked at every other ...

Anyway, I'm screwed right now. After installing the OS 1.2.1 update, I tried performing a full OS re-install to 1.1.0 and then attempting to re-authorize. It fails completely. I checked the public ID and it is the same as the one I got via email as part of the re-authorization process. Now I'm ...

Hi Daz,
I just have my OASYS with me right now and a pair of headphones. I am going to re-sample the sound clip to hard disk. I don't have high quality A/D converters with me. I am planning to capture it direct to WAV.

Yeah, Daz, I'm going to do just that. Right now I'm backing up all the work from the OASYS hard disk to an external drive. I'm going to save a small snipped to hard disk using OS 1.2.1, roll back to OS 1.1.1 and record the original sound and then do a factual comparision. It sounds different and my ...

Just rechecked once, again, A114 Mega Mute Guitar doesn't have the same impact as it used to when I was running OS 1.1.1. It's pretty annoying and I'm just wondering if increasing the voice polyphony or something else is causing the original sounds to lose some punch/sound definition. Great, I'm ...
