It's interesting that, being virtually twins, the VG-99 got a system update to 1.04, but the VB-99 didn't. I'm curious. Does anyone know why?

I just found an update for the VB-99 to version 1.02 of the Roland Japan website. My unit is 1.01. I'm translating all the instructions from Japanese to English.

I'll let you know how it goes.

Everything seemed to work okay, and the display is still in English. :)

Yeah !
Maybe someone else is gonna post some patches here ?

;D
I'm primarily a rhythm guitarist, using the GR-55 to add piano, horns, strings, etc to my oldies Rock n Roll band. I'm also the lead singer, but can't hit some of the songs in their original key.

My initial goal with the VB-99 and my A4 is to allow my bass player, who doesn't have any synth gear, to play things like 25 Or 6 To 4, in F instead of A, without having to play it higher on the fret board.

The guys sometimes complain that I can just change the key on my guitar, without having to retune. :)

Patches may come later, but right now it's just a P Bass tuned down to D, another P Bass patch, tuned down to D, and two more, tuned up to F# & G#.

I know, BORING. :)

As (with one of my hats) the Norrie Paramor Substitute in a Shadows tribute band, I can relate well to all of this.....   ::) ;D
...and the Bass Player doesn't even have a computer.... :-\

I have tried imposing technology on my fellow band members in the hope they might become enlightened,
but, (sigh)  :-\
no... it just doesn't work, some people just can't see past having the need to have regular physical  knobs for immediate access to a parameter,
the ME-70 is as techo as it gets for the others here.
At least I am the odd one out.  ;)

I LOANED a Passac system & synth to a band member back in the summer. I doubt it's been touched yet. :)

With the bass, there're specific songs where the alternate tuning will be useful, and I've already set up those patches, so, we'll see.
