Yes...and then the Power goes off for some reason (happened to me many times with Triton
and Motif) and then you announce:
Dear Guests...may i please have 30 min to load samples...see ya then.

Nedim,

that's why i said to use a UPS

When I owned the X1, they had the Super Solos also, which would be loaded from the ram card. I have to say I was always content with the right hand sounds of he X1 and I never used the Super Solos.

If the power goes off for some reason then your stuck having to load sounds again. I have to say the my audiences will never really know whether I'm using the keyboards standard voices or Super Solos!

It happened to you MANY times on the Triton and Motif?

Ye Gods! It happened to me ONCE, and I had a UPS hooked up the next day...

No DIKI, on Audya you always have to address where it goes, it doesnt load by Sets.

-The problem with the long loading times is that these musicall instruments don't use the latest state of the art stuff..

You could create an instrument with static RAM, that way your ram sounds keep loaded in case of powering off and powerfails.

And then boot the OS from Turbo ROM, its almost instant start-up, no loading times.

But then.........


Why isn't any of the top arranger developers using nowerdays processing technollogy.... Its almost as if they don't want to keep up with the software instruments....

Only PA2X and PA800 do that.

Static RAM is very expensive. I couldn't even think what 4GB of that added to an arranger would cost.

Put it this way... if it was cheap enough and effective enough, every computer in the world would boot from it instantly, instead of using the same kind of RAM an arranger has.

Dream on...

what is CHEAP is regular RAM,

so no excuses KETRON,

let us expand this AUDYA to what WE need,
which is a WHOLE LOT MORE than 64MB,

1GB min, but let us install more

As said before, regular DDR2 ram doesnt come in 64 MB size. So Ketron must be using a very old or an obscure type of RAM, and those will be much more expensive then the regular DDR2 or DDR3 Ram used in current day computers.

If as said before the hardware even supports more then 256 MB.
