Hi Bob!!
I don't think the Edirol VSC has been in Sonar since Sonar 2.2. Regarding the Cakewalk TTS1
well, it's way better than the Edirol VSC ever was. In fact, the brass on it is excellent. I
think the Cakewalk TTS1 is similar to the Roland Hyper Canvas. As I am sure you are already
aware, Edirol are part of Roland.
Regarding the demos that are mention in the CT tutorials well, they are actually demos that are
on he Sonar 5 DVD. Other synthe and audio plug-ins such as the Alien Connections Revalver SE,
Dream Station DXi, and Cyclone all included on the Sonar 5 DVD. Nun of these are demo products.
In fact, there are a ton of audio, MIDI and DXi instruments that may not be necessarily installed
by default. In other words, when you install Sonar, only default plug-ins and synthes are
installed by default. That's whey I always click on the options button for each item in the Sonar
install dialog box and click on the all button.

Subject: [ddots-l] Edirol VSC and other soft synthes
Hello all. I am new to Sonar and midi work stations involving a PC so I apologize in advance
for the basic nature of my questions over the next few months.
Please include chapter or page references with "RTM" responses.
I have read that the Edirol VSC emulates the Sound Canvas, the patches of which I have always
appreciated. I bought Sonar 5 Producer and was surprised to discover that it is not available
as a soft synthe. I have read that Cakewalk's TTS-1 apparently has Roland sounds which are
pretty good but my MV30 has better brass. Is the Roland Groove Synthe meant to replace the
Edirol even though it's geared to a specific musical style? Is there a place to get the Edirol
VSC that Sonar 4 users have? Also, the Cake Talking tutorial mentions several demos that come
with Sonar. Are they things like the Alien Connections, Dream Station and RXP included in the
soft synthe insert list? If not, where are they located?
Thanks in advance.
Bob.
