vArranger Forums

Greetings from panama city beach Florida.  Just got my V and SD2 and have been learning how everything works. I been emailing Dan everyday ( btw, great to work with )
and wanted to give him a break on my questions and post it here for help. 
I have several Yamaha midi files that I have loaded into the V. The instrumentation of the the midi doesn't sound the correct instruments or I want to change the instrument for a certain track. I will make the changes and save the settings but when I recall the file again, it shows up in the original format  none of my settings were saved. What am I missing??? Thanks

I've successfully installed windows 7 64 bit on my MacBook pro and just ordered the varranger. Can't wait to get started using the V.

Good to know.  Thanks.

Load 32 or 64 bit windows to work with V?

Thanks. So do you think 20gb is sufficient for the partition of Bootcamp ?  Looking at all styles you have available and other downloads that is available by members   

How large is the varranger file to download ?  Also, once downloaded, will I have access immediately to get me up and running?

Thanks.  I will let y'all know my success. 

Dan, what version of windows do I need with Bootcamp or do I to run varranger?  I was going to install Bootcamp this weekend.

I see it now. Thanks

Hi Deane-what do you have plugged into your MacBook pro?  I see one is to the USB but the other one I can't tell. Is that a special chord you have yo connect the Roland 800 and the Bk7 to the computer?  Thanks

stupid question...I see two types of SD2 on google.  One is the arranger and the other is the orchestral.  Which one do I get?  Also, where is the best site to buy from?   thanks

Thanks....getting closer to making the leap to the V...
I need to bootcamp my Mac...order the sd2, um-one, and V.   

If I add the sd2,what hookup cables are needed ?

Thank you

Dan- didn't you use a MacBook pro at one time but switched to a window pc?  Did you experience issues using the Mac?  Also, how large is the V file for downloading?  Thanks. 

The Samsung slate may not work for me. I have a MacBook Pro.. Will the V work with this Mac?

Sweet

Dan. This is great but how do I use it?

Thanks. Sounds easy enough.

I have the new Yamaha mox6 keyboard and getting a Samsung slate to run the varranger.  How would I connect and what additional items do I need, midi cable?  Thanks

That's what I thought too but wanted to see what others thought. 

Hey Dan. How about checking this out to see if it will integrate with the V. It had a 30 day trial. Open Labs is a Texas based company that specializes in hybrid computer/ keyboard development.

Thanks Dan.

Thanks. Don't buy the software now?  You have some other ideas? 

Would you be willing to post your steps on how varranger+hypersonic+bebop work together. I am thinking of like
Step 1. Do this
Step 2. Do this
Step 3. Etc

I know for experience V players this wouldn't be of any interest but for those individuals like me about to take the leap and purchase the V it would be extremely helpful.  Thanks

Ouch!

Very nice.

Hummm. I think so. Will have to check it out.   Probably just go with the sd2   Thanks

Yes. On Mac.  Left hand acc. 

I play alot of music  just using a midi keyboard and a computer with an arrangement of virtual instruments loaded into the computer using prologic's "MainStage".   Will I be able to use this set-up with the varranger? 

I need something like that...thanks for sharing...

Very nice setup. What is that quik lok thing above your foot pedals ?

Thanks Dan for posting pics.

Looking forward to seeing the pics. Thanks
