The '''Roland Sound Canvas VA''' is a [[Roland Sound Canvas|Sound Canvas]] ('''SCVA''' for short) software synthesizer released in 2015. Notable for its solid attempt to bring the de facto standard desktop sound module into the modern era and being a software-based emulation of the Roland-ED SC-8820. The Roland Sound Canvas VA is available as both a VSTi and AU software synthesizer for modern computers.<br />
<br />
Roland Sound Canvas VA was first released standalone, then included with the Roland Cloud software-as-a-service subscription. This was discontinued on the 1st of September 2024, where it was no longer available for purchase.<br />

== Oddities ==<br />
<br />
=== Discrepancies between Roland Sound Canvas VA and Roland-ED SC-8820 ===<br />
The Roland Sound Canvas VA is a software-based emulation of the SC-8820 Sound Canvas unit, utilizing the EPROM files from the original hardware. This means that the Sound Canvas VA is designed to be a theoretically identical software replica of the Roland-ED SC-8820, offering the same sound and functionality in a virtual format. However, certain tones and filters may sound different or lack the accuracy of the original hardware unit. Additionally, there are discrepancies in specification information between the Sound Canvas VA and the SC-8820 as noted in their respective manuals.<br />
<br />
=== A list of few discrepancies and oddities ===<br />
<br />
* The user drum<ref name=sc8820userdrum>[https://cdn.roland.com/assets/media/pdf/SC-8850_OM.pdf## Roland-ED SC-8850 Owner's Manual, page 241.]</ref> presets are not referenced in the SC-8820 or Sound Canvas VA manuals. Although the user drum presets work perfectly fine in the SC-8820 and SCVA, but you will need to use GSAE (GS Advanced Editor) to program them.<br />
<br />
* Roland Sound Canvas VA only has 16 parts though Roland-ED SC-8820 has up to 32 parts.<br />
<br />
* The Roland Sound Canvas VA does not properly handle Assign Mode<ref name=assing-mode>[https://www.rolandcloud.com/getmedia/1b9a8e2f-da5b-4ac4-a903-60d1c6dcd648/scva-manual-e.old.pdf# Roland Sound Canvas VA Owner's Manual, page 105.]</ref>; it is always set to full multi.<br />
<br />
*Shifts the TVF Attack value randomly on a per-note basis.<ref name=scvarandomresonanceattacks>Tested by the following users:<br />
* [[User:MJG0117|MJG0117]], [[User:Purps|Purps]] and [[User:Valley Bell|Valley Bell]] has tested and found that [[Roland Sound Canvas VA]] sometimes shifts the TVF Attack value randomly on a per-note basis.</ref><br />

The '''Roland Sound Canvas VA''' is a [[Roland Sound Canvas|Sound Canvas]] ('''SCVA''' for short) software synthesizer released in 2015. Notable for its solid attempt to bring the de facto standard desktop sound module into the modern era and being a software-based emulation of the Roland-ED SC-8820. The Roland Sound Canvas VA is available as both a VSTi and AU software synthesizer for modern computers.<br />
<br />
Roland Sound Canvas VA was first released standalone, then included with the Roland Cloud software-as-a-service subscription. This was discontinued on the 1st of September 2024, where it was no longer available for purchase.<br />
<br />
== Oddities ==<br />
<br />
=== Discrepancies between Roland Sound Canvas VA and Roland-ED SC-8820 ===<br />
The Roland Sound Canvas VA is a software-based emulation of the SC-8820 Sound Canvas unit, utilizing the EPROM files from the original hardware. This means that the Sound Canvas VA is designed to be a theoretically identical software replica of the Roland-ED SC-8820, offering the same sound and functionality in a virtual format. However, certain tones and filters may sound different or lack the accuracy of the original hardware unit. Additionally, there are discrepancies in specification information between the Sound Canvas VA and the SC-8820 as noted in their respective manuals.<br />
<br />

<hr />
<div>This is a help page listing which MIDI messages can be used for common things across [[General MIDI]], [[Roland GS]] and [[Yamaha XG]].<br />
<br />
General notes:<br />
<br />
* GS doesn't seem to have a publicly available formal standard, so the [[Roland SC-55mkII]] manual is used as a reference. Later Roland devices seem to use the SC-55mkII as the baseline for GS.<br />
* [[Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth]] only supports a tiny fraction of the GS features, despite the name.<br />
* XGLite only supports a subset of the XG features.<br />
<br />
Symbol legend:<br />
<br />
* โ โ Not supported (according to the standard; the device might still have it as an extension)<br />
* ๐ป โ Undocumented, but appears to work on some devices in testing<br />
* *๏ธโฃ โ Supported, but meaning is standard-specific or depends on other factors<br />
* โ โ Supported<br />
* [88] โ Supported only by [[Roland SC-88]] and later (not part of basic GS/[[Roland SC-55|SC-55]]) <br />

The '''Roland Sound Canvas VA''' is a [[Roland Sound Canvas|Sound Canvas]] ('''SCVA''' for short) software synthesizer released in 2015. Notable for its solid attempt to bring the de facto standard desktop sound module into the modern era and being a software-based emulation of the Roland-ED SC-8820. The Roland Sound Canvas VA is available as both a VSTi and AU software synthesizer for modern computers.<br />
<br />
Roland Sound Canvas VA was first released standalone, then included with the Roland Cloud software-as-a-service subscription. This was discontinued on the 1st of September 2024, where it was no longer available for purchase.<br />
<br />
== Oddities ==<br />
<br />
=== Discrepancies between Roland Sound Canvas VA and Roland-ED SC-8820 ===<br />
The Roland Sound Canvas VA is a software-based emulation of the SC-8820 Sound Canvas unit, utilizing the EPROM files from the original hardware. This means that the Sound Canvas VA is designed to be a theoretically identical software replica of the Roland-ED SC-8820, offering the same sound and functionality in a virtual format. However, certain tones and filters may sound different or lack the accuracy of the original hardware unit. Additionally, there are discrepancies in specification information between the Sound Canvas VA and the SC-8820 as noted in their respective manuals.<br />
<br />
=== A list of few discrepancies and oddities ===<br />
<br />
* The user drum<ref name=sc8820userdrum>[https://cdn.roland.com/assets/media/pdf/SC-8850_OM.pdf## Roland-ED SC-8850 Owner's Manual, page 241.]</ref> presets are not referenced in the SC-8820 or Sound Canvas VA manuals. Although the user drum presets work perfectly fine in the SC-8820 and SCVA, but you will need to use GSAE (GS Advanced Editor) to program them.<br />
<br />
* Roland Sound Canvas VA only has 16 parts though Roland-ED SC-8820 has up to 32 parts.<br />
<br />
* The Roland Sound Canvas VA does not properly handle Assign Mode<ref name=assing-mode>[https://www.rolandcloud.com/getmedia/1b9a8e2f-da5b-4ac4-a903-60d1c6dcd648/scva-manual-e.old.pdf# Roland Sound Canvas VA Owner's Manual, page 105.]</ref>; it is always set to full multi on drums.<br />
<br />
*Random resonance attacks<ref name=scvarandomresonanceattacks>Tested by the following users:<br />
* [[User:MJG0117|MJG0117]] has tested and found that [[Roland Sound Canvas VA]] sometimes shifts the resonance value randomly</ref><br />

The '''Roland Sound Canvas VA''' is a [[Roland Sound Canvas|Sound Canvas]] ('''SCVA''' for short) software synthesizer released in 2015. Notable for its solid attempt to bring the de facto standard desktop sound module into the modern era and being a software-based emulation of the Roland-ED SC-8820. The Roland Sound Canvas VA is available as both a VSTi and AU software synthesizer for modern computers.<br />
<br />
Roland Sound Canvas VA was first released standalone, then included with the Roland Cloud software-as-a-service subscription. This was discontinued on the 1st of September 2024, where it was no longer available for purchase.<br />
<br />
== Oddities ==<br />
<br />
=== Discrepancies between Roland Sound Canvas VA and Roland-ED SC-8820 ===<br />
The Roland Sound Canvas VA is a software-based emulation of the SC-8820 Sound Canvas unit, utilizing the EPROM files from the original hardware. This means that the Sound Canvas VA is designed to be a theoretically identical software replica of the Roland-ED SC-8820, offering the same sound and functionality in a virtual format. However, certain tones and filters may sound different or lack the accuracy of the original hardware unit. Additionally, there are discrepancies in specification information between the Sound Canvas VA and the SC-8820 as noted in their respective manuals.<br />
<br />
=== A list of few discrepancies ===<br />
<br />
* The user drum<ref name=sc8820userdrum>[https://cdn.roland.com/assets/media/pdf/SC-8850_OM.pdf## Roland-ED SC-8850 Owner's Manual, page 6.]</ref> presets are not referenced in the SC-8820 or Sound Canvas VA manuals. Although the user drum presets work perfectly fine in the SC-8820 and SCVA, but you will need to use GSAE (GS Advanced Editor) to program them.<br />
<br />
* Roland Sound Canvas VA only has 16 parts though Roland-ED SC-8820 has up to 32 parts.<br />

The '''Roland-ED SC-8850''' is a [[Roland Sound Canvas|Sound Canvas]] unit released in 1999, notable for being the first synthesizer to support the [[General MIDI System Level 2|General MIDI 2]] standard as well as MIDI via USB.<ref name=first-gm2-usb>[https://www.soundonsound.com/reviews/roland-ed-sc8850-sound-canvas# Sound on Sound magazine, October 1999 issue]</ref> It is the successor to the [[Roland SC-88 Pro]]. It is also the first Sound Canvas device to feature up to 4 voices per note, 64 individual parts (grouped in 4 pairs of 16), as well as 128 voice polyphony. It can channel 32khz 24bit sound to two separate sets of RCA outputs (selectable per MIDI channel via the onboard panel and SysEX), and has a pair of RCA inputs as well for passing through computer audio.<br />
<br />
When connected to USB, the MIDI IN and MIDI OUT jacks act as a MIDI Interface for other instruments.<br />
<br />
Two later versions based on this were made, the [[Roland-ED SC-8820]] and the [[Roland-ED SC-8820#SC-D70|Roland-ED SC-D70]] - they feature the same sample map as the 8850, but with a smaller sample ROM, up to 32 parts, up to 2 voices per note, and only 64 voice polyphony - all similar to the [[Roland SC-88]] and [[Roland SC-88 Pro|SC-88 Pro]] that came before.<br />
<br />
A VST version, called [[Roland Sound Canvas VA|Sound Canvas VA]] was released in 2015 - based on the SC-8820. This version was first released standalone, then included with the Roland Cloud software-as-a-service subscription. This iteration is further limited to only 16 parts. This was discontinued on the 1st of September 2024, where it was no longer available for purchase.<br />
