Found out there's advantages to Roland VSC VST over Player
+ Lower latency (~30% in my case)
+ Better organized GUI
+ Change reverb, chorus, delay macro presets
+ More crash (mutex) resistant
+ Instrument names update without problems
+ Record sound (SAVIHost)
+ Keyboard player (SAVIHost)
- No mute buttons
- No drag-drop midi play
- Have to manually swap sound sets files
Like its lots better than player version. Thanks to robertmo for mentioning SAVIHost VSTi. 😀
Used with loopMIDI and I can chain all sorts of stuff together now before it hits BASSMIDI also.
VSC VST note: RVI01.dat = SC-88Pro data
- You can replace with the VSC32 Player sound sets instead (vsc55.dat, vsc88.dat, vsc88pro.dat)
- I assume parts of it are compressed but other pieces look like huge table data
edit:
WTH? Blackthorne (1994 DOS) is logging Ethnic (Intro) + Orchestra (Stage 1) drum kits?? VST says polyphony peaks at 44 + 91 (!?) during stage 1 bgm only? Likes to hover ~40 quite often enough.
Are notes off counting as polyphony too? I've never seen weird stuff like this before. No GS / GM resets. I'm mixed, unsure about the ethnic drum kit sounding right - Orchestra feels more believable imo. But I can't say. 😐
edit2:
Notes still releasing when 'note off' count as polyphony. Ethnic is wrong (sc88 capital fallback problem - Gravis uses the Orchestra drum kit).
