@grantek: that's VERY nice! Also welcome to the forums 😀

Hiya. Ok, I have a Roland SC-55 and a Roland UM-One MkII USB-MIDI interface. From time to time, I would just like to connect the SC55 to my MacBook (running Big Sur) and play some MIDI files. Are there any good players for just basic playback of MIDI files? So far I have only found MIDITrail, but it …

Hi! I have an IBM L40SX laptop. I have been doing some repairs on it, I have replaced the hard disk with an CF card (I even managed to get the old drive unstuck and grab the files) and have replaced the CMOS battery so I don't have to use the config disk on every boot. I am also thinking of …

And deal struck with keropi, thanks a lot! 😀

Hi! I have recently bought my first Roland SC-55. I just finished replacing the front panel switches as they were having serious contact issues (just like in AkBKukU's video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBseVsGzx7M). The unit is working very nicely now, but it has a small visual defect; …
