Long ago, i discovered and used  the Dowload section and it was really fun to use it. Since'then, sadly seen the same old files.

Just wandrring if there are new'stuff coming up or threads that i haven't glanced,properly.

Please'let me know

Thanks

A few months ago (would be hard to find now with all the posts here, I proposed a challenge right along those lines-to post your original sound edits/original sounds. I think it was in the PX560 posts section, might have been the XW-P1 section.

 

There are plenty of Casios that are real programmable synths-including the old CZ series and of course many of the newest. I have a few PX560's edits I've put up, not much with the XW.  I guess, since Casio hasn't put forth an update to a few of its more programmable boards, much less anything like a newer XW/MZ/PX, there hasn't been as much going on lately, but depending on your Casio, i have seen a few additions recently across the brand. The "honeymoon" period is over I guess, but the possibilities even with for example the PX5s and 560 are pretty extensive. It can take me a long time to learn even the simplest programmable functions, much less the more complex, such as how to route modulations-which can present some of the more interesting possibilities soundwise with most synths. For instance my Ion has 36 modulation sources and 78 destination sources-I won't live long enough to use half those! it took me almost 20 years(!) to figure out some the deepest most interesting programmable functions from my old Equuinox-and then I sold it! Of course was I was only 2 years old when i bought itAnd I still have yet to do much programming with my SY77 even though I've had it since-well 1990-but then much more astute programmers than I spent years developing FM and RCM sounds for that monster which still sounds unique. Oh well.

Yes i see...

It's the same problem,with '''everything'' nowadays especially when New Models being built, then few decades later, its just ''forgotten'' or ''abandonned'' because Politics influence the Marketting to push by doing that and to end up like this : no maintenance possibility, so the Policy's Service Agent aply this moto : ''its broken, so buy a new one !''

The controversy is, failure, no development, no innovation, so,unfortunately nothing New, so its trolling and'pending.

 

Anyway, the bright side is as u said, from programming or exchanging data,between Models is the only'''Hope'' to get some,extra data and continue enjoying Keyboards and Music.

At least, we still have some good machines that hzve ability for us,to create, edit, save and produce. On the other hand, its sad to end'up like making yourself your own  ''home-made Bread", coz many Bakery are closing...
