Dear mr. Sandro,
Yesterday my SD1 was fixed concerning the Display : The switch/display board was replaced completely.
This is good customer service ! Thank you.
But :
The polyphony/cutoff problem howerver gets more serious worldwide and I'm thinking to go back to 3.0c....... like many users did already.
Please visit our forum
http://www.synthzone.com/cgi-bin/forumdisplay.cgi?action=topics&forum=Ketron+Forum&number=22 where you find many complains/examples.
On the German forum
http://www.mira-multimedia.de/KetronHotline/index.htm you'll find some more.
Advices given to eleminate the cut-offs do not help much and it's a hell of a job to edit. (nobody wants this)
We all get the impression that the changes in the OS asks too much CPU load for sound-improvement and 'increasing polyphony' so that sometimes the SD1 is not even ready to produce a sound ;-))
If you would ask me what to do :
Skip all the fancy features from OS to save CPU-load.
(e.g. Who of the users will ever mess around with chord or bass retrigger switches ? ( 2 % ?) )
Create an OS that has 'playing' without cutoffs and latency as the most important task (core business)
Please can you put as many effort as you can in solving this important (last) problem ?
kind regards
Roel de Jonge
