Oasys Wishlist

And another thing very important is adding to the sequencer a piano roll view like in the Fantom, since it costs like car I think it must be as much complete as it can, i hope that the programmers are working about this issue.

Another one for the club of "Add a piano Roll and upgrade the Sequencer"
Welcome to the club, Mauro.

The korg radias...boy would I pay for that

It would be great to have an easy way to split a single sequencer track containing drums into a number of tracks e.g. split into kick, snare, toms, hihats, cymbals, percussion.
It wouldn't simply assign each note to a different track, but would group the notes logically together.
Its a function from Motif ES that I kinda miss on the oasys.

Would it be too complicated to be able to load samples the same way computers do ? (e.g. load the head on the sample into RAM and then stream the rest from the hard drive).

There's an "official" sampled prepared piano on sale from Big Fish Audio and I would kill to be able to load it into the Oasys and use all the AMS stuff to make it sound better than just "samples". It was prepared according to John Cage's specifications for his Sonatas and Interludes.
Problem is... is VERY huge. At least 1 G.

It would be cool if the OASYS could view pdf-files.
For instance, since Im often missing a music-stand I could produce pdf-files from my music-papers and then view them on the screen.
Link a pdf to a Combi to be viewed when changing to that Combi.

Yes, Linux has free pdf-viewers. And free midi-to-pdf generators too

Ok, and while Im at it, why not a notepad-paint thing?
Write directly on the screen with a stylus?
Write notes on the pdf's.

I notice that, on the M3 and M50, when you select a Category of Programs and scroll through them, the GM programs appear last in the list.

This solves the problem that Oasys has - when you're scrolling you have to wade through all the redundant GM patches before you get to the "U" banks.

On the M3 and M50, the more sensible scrolling order happens in both Program mode, and when you're selecting Programs within a Combi or Song.

A simple thing, but it wouldn't be too hard to add on to the Oasys, would it? :

I would like many more expansion instruments like the MOD7 which is fantastic!.
No more EXS which are obsolete in comparison to software synth.
In my preferences I would go for digital synth, maybe recreation of those from the 80 and 90s. Why don't you add your digital legacy collection to the Oasys?

More analog regreations as well. Probably my preference would go for the ARP 2600 and some vintage Oberheims.

I don't mind to pay for these plugins 250-300EUR. I just want them. I feel I have an excellent hardware which is quite empty of software!.

Technology has an awful long way to go before it can replace sampling. Other than Pianoteq for Piano Sounds only, I know of no program that can emulate a real instrument worthy of replacing a sample based sound.

Would be better if there was a "Disable" function,whereby you could switch the GM/XG/GS variation banks and programs off so they didn't appear at all whilst selecting sounds.

I'd also like to see the GM banks freed up so they could be overwritten or removed,personally never use them so would prefer the extra Locations for the EXi and such.
A compromise between switching them on and off would be more beneficial,so as to not alienate those that perhaps create or use Midi file arrangements,but Given its an OA system would be more user friendly to make use of those banks if you never utilise the GM sounds.

Agree.

And better yet: the ability to remove the GM banks to make way for EXs or EXi banks...

[kenackr]

Curve bender,

Yes, that would be great!

[peter m. mahr]

I would be interested to know how many OASYANs ever used the GM sounds.. maybe worth to make a poll.

However, I agree with curvebender.

MY CONCLUSION

--- Full program edit access in Combi and Seq Mode. (Yamaha's SY77 from 1989 can do this!!!) Because otherwise you will never have the chance to manipulate a MS20 Sound with the virtual knobs on its beautiful graphic interface in Seq- or Combi-Mode.

--- Drum Program editing in Program-, Combi- and Seq-Mode not like now only in Global Mode.

--- Effect Send for individual Drumsounds adjustable in Program-, Combi- and Seq-Mode and not like now only in Global Mode.

--- Flexible storing of Programs into Banks, not like now, just either EXi or HD1 for a whole Bank.

--- More Program slots due the many EXi's that are meanwhile available.

--- Get rid of the GM Sounds or make it an option to blank them out from the Program list or put them al least to the end of the list.

--- Drumtrack as in the M3

--- Touchscreen editing like in the PA800 and M3-Xpanded: Touch a parameter and change its value by moving the finger on the screen.

--- Velocity-Meters (Midi and Audio) for each track in Seq-Mode and in Combi-Mode or at least an indication which part in a Combi actually is sounding.

---And of Course: Give us at least the Sequencer of the M3-Xpanded.

THANKS KORG FOR NOTICING THAT AND FOR HAVING DEVELOPED THIS DREAM INSTRUMENT

Thanks Dany for the support on this one !
