Enfin entre connaisseurs ! J’ai acquis l’Integra-7 pour 800€ quasi-neuf auprès d’un guitariste jazz pro qui jouait de la Synthaxe Midi et à qui ça ne convenait pas). Ça a fait mon bonheur en groupe pendant près de 5 ans....Je n’y suis pas venu par hasard, ayant joué pendant 2 ans sur un Jupiter-80. Si je devais rejouer en Live aujourd’hui je pense que j’opterais pour quelque chose de plus intégré (avec le Flight case et son support, et les câbles, le clavier maître 61 touches, le Gaia en main sup, le pied double, les pédales etc... rien n’est très lourd individuellement mais ça fait trop et c’est trop compliqué à changer entre chaque morceau, ça prend trop de place sur de petites scènes). Franchement ça ferait mal au c.l d’aller payer aussi cher un Fantom-7 ou 8 pour n’avoir même pas tous les sons SN (les Jupiter 50/80 n’ont pas les banques SRX autant que je me souviennes par ailleurs, le JP 80 a ces boutons aux pouces sous le clavier pour changer entre chaque morceau sans décoller les mains du clavier, des sorties XLR etc.). Le seul regret avec l’Integra-7, c’est l’articulation des cuivres sur la carte ARX-3 du Fantom-G : les sons ne sont pas mieux, mais on commande une vraie section de cuivre, n’étant pas obligés de les faire jouer à l’unisson , on peut les faire rentrer à tour de rôle dans un ordre prédéfini : ex le Sax Baryton pour la fondamentale, un trombone pour la tierce, un Sax alto pour la quinte et une trompette pour la septième etc...). Le truc un peu dingue avec Roland, c’est qu’ils ont des fulgurances, et puis abandonnent complètement l’idée dans leurs produits ultérieurs (Variphrase, SuperNatural, technologie ACB, etc..).

[@arnaudchabo]

Tu as l'air de bien connaitre "l'univers" Roland. Perso, c'est mon premier synthé Roland, donc je découvre, et j'aime beaucoup. Après, chaque marque a ses points forts. Par exemple, les ensembles de cordes des kurzweil sont imbattables à mon avis. Les pianos de l'integra sont ce qui m'embête le plus. Ils sont efficaces et pas trop mal en situation live. Mais ils sont vraiment dépassés par rapport à ce qui se fait maintenant. J'aimerais beaucoup un integra7 nouvelle génération, ou même un expandeur du Kronos ou du Montage. Mais ça n'est pas dans l'air du temps. Et oui, il y a des sons et des particularités au top sur certains claviers qui sont abandonnés dans les générations suivantes. C'est vrai pour toutes les marques. Choisir et trouver son matériel est une chose pénible parfois je trouve.

[@LittleRichard1988]

The violin and cello sound so convincing, if I heard those on a recording I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. In fact many of the Supernatural instruments are really good samples but I also like Roland's PCM sounds as I currently have 8 sound modules including a Roland JV-1080, Roland U-220 and Roland SC-88 Pro and even those still sound usable in modern productions. I'm thinking about also buying an Integra 7 and an SC-8850 as an alternative to the Roland Cloud VST instruments.

[@arnaudchabo]

Right, violin and cello are good. I have to say that I added a lot of tc.electronics m350 reverb on these sounds. It sounded much better than the internal reverb. I love the hardware units. I'd like Roland, Korg and Yamaha to sell new ones with actual piano sounds. Integra7 or motif rack are very old.

The Integra contains all 8 SRX extensions the SRX-07 Ultimate Keys contains SR-JV80-04 "Vintage Synth" However, note that these are the samples, not the patches! The patches were re-designed for SRX boards, and they are not the same patches as on the original SR-JV80 boards. Back in the days Roland sold the SRX cards with the old SR-JV80 patch data on CD ROM, XV-line users could upload SR-JV80 patches to their machine that would use the SRX boards' sample data. This does not work in the Integra 7

I own a FA06, but I feel SuperNatural piano is not as good as integra 7, or am I wrong? In FA06, the piano sampings around D6 (not quite remember those exact keys) has subtle sampling noises; this also means the SN piano in FA06 is not sampled for every individual key.

So, if I have an inexpensive Yamaha PSR e463, will my keyboard sound just as good with this Roland hooked up?

[@arnaudchabo]

Indeed. The integra sound always the same. No matter what midi keyboard you use. But, you have to think that the dynamic range of the midi keyboard could change the "clarity" of the sound. If it's a piano keybed, it will be more difficult to get the strongest part of the sound.. the part that is often louder a d clearer. And id you use an inexpensive e463, the sound could be much more clearer, and it could be more difficult to play the "light" part of the sound.. the first layer.. that is often softer and darker. So indeed, with a PSR, the integra will play the same quality of sound. But maybe you won't "ask" it the same "layer".. So it could be dissapointing.

Oui, il y a 2x2 entrées.. 1 paire en façade avant, et 1 paire en façade arrière. Je ne peux pas confirmer ce que tu veux faire avec une reverb. Moi, j'ai juste utilisé ces entrées pour y brancher un 2nd clavier. On peut donc faire entrer 2 sources stéréo. Par contre les 2 sources apparaissent mélangées sur le même vu-mètre EXT. Et, de mémoire, il n'y a pas de contrôle interne du volume de ces entrées. J'ai revendu mon integra7. Je ne peux plus vérifier. Oui l'integra est multitimbral. Je l'utilisais en live avec un studiologic SL73. Je mélangeais souvent une basse à la main gauche (routée sur une sortie séparée) un piano à droite + un son additionnel contrôlé par une pédale de volume (pad, orgue, cuivres) Tu peux faire tes splits et layers sur le clavier maître. Tu peux aussi le faire sur un studio set directement sur l'integra (moins pratique à mon goût, mais possible) En pratique, tu peux mélanger, superposer, splitter 16 sons en même temps. Mais tu es quand même limité par la polyphonie (variable en fonction des sons choisis) J'ai remplacé tout ça par un kronos. Je n'ai pas retrouvé la qualité des cuivres de l'integra dans le kronos. Idem pour les contrebasses et les guitares. Par contre les pianos acoustiques de l'integra, même s'ils sont utilisables, sont la raison principake pour laquelle je l'ai vendu. Très ternes à mon goût. .. ah.. et aussi.. petit inconvénient que j'ai rencontré. Je ne sais pas si ça concerne uniquement l'integra que j'avais ou si c'est un problème habituel. De temps en temps, le sustain d'une note restait bloqué. Je crois que c'est un problème de signal midi. Quand ça arrivait (souvent 1 fois par presta) je devais sélectionner un autre preset de son et revenir à celui en cours. Ça réglait le problème. Mais en live, c'était chiant. Pour être complet, mon kronos a fait bien pire. En live, il plante. Écran noir. "Veuillez éteindre et rallumer le kronos" !!! Horrible. J'ai complètement réglé le problème avec un régulateur de tension (pas un onduleur.. que j'ai essayé et qui n'a rien changé) un régulateur de tension. Et donc, je me demande si un régulateur de tension n'aurait pas réglé mon problème de note bloquée (qui venait soit du studiologic, soit de l'integra)

@@arnaudchabo je t'avoue que le korg me faisait de l'œil aussi, mais vue l'usine à gaz, je voulais pas un truc qui fait la même chose que mon DAW et PC, j'ai bien fait de choper un Nord electro 5D déjà parce que c'est juste un bête clavier dépourvu de sequencer et autre DAW, mais surtout ont peu y mettre les sons qu'ont veux via un petit soft de sampling ou des patch gratuit sur le site de Clavia et y'en a un bouquet garnie possibilité de faire des layers mais avec deux instru pour le mien ou 3 si tu a le stage, le Roland ça serai un petit plus vue que ça ressemble à un maxi best of de ce qu'ils ont sampler ou modélisé par le passé, donc si les layers et Split sont éditable c'est un plus pour moi.

[@arnaudchabo]

@@Meteotrance oui j'aimerais bien acheter un Nord un de ces 4. Mais c'est pas donné ! Le kronos est hyper lourd. Pour le promener partout, c'est pas idéal. Je te conseille d'essayer l'integra. En plus, si ça ne te convient pas, ça se revend hyper bien.

[@Meteotrance]

​​@@arnaudchabotu sait mon nord ma coûter 1700 balle donc à peine plus chère que ton integra qui a plus de possibilités en multitimbrale, moi c'est le gros son de B3 qui m'a séduit et les piano électrique dedans ainsi que la possibilité de faire ça propre mayonnaise avec l'éditeur de sample sur ordi même si 256 mb c'est finalement peu les nouveau ont 512 mb pour les son utilisateur et 1.5 go pour les piano acoustic, électrique et certain clavecin et xylophone qu'on peu changer y'en a une chier à essayer et installer gratuit sur le site clavia, 1 go ou 2go serai pas du luxe, faut sampler à l'ancienne sans layer de vélocité mais au final pour les nappe de synthé ou de mellotron ça suffit, j'ai même utiliser des sons E-mu ou akai, que j'avais sur des vieux cd rom de sample.

nice video! I wonder what is the rack surrounding the integra-7 and the device above it? It looks so convinient to move them!

[@arnaudchabo]

It's a Gator rack. I can't remember the model (3u) The device above is a reverb TC electronics M350. It was just to experiment. The reverb inside the Integra is enough.

[@cr-tq6do]

@@arnaudchabo Thank you so much! I think I've found the rack! coz I got an integra 7 recently, so I am arranging the place to put it. thanks!

[@nickhaldin8674]

What’s interesting is convincing piano, string and VA synth sounds have been done for nearly 40 years. If a unit can’t do those well, its not worth it. Where many virtual instrument sounds fall flat IMO is in the electric piano sounds and brass sounds. I don’t know why, but it seems like roland really skimped on the e pianos and brass. Most of the sounds on this unit are fantastic, but i could not get behind the fake sounding horns and the glassy rhodes sound. Surprising that they want so much for this. That being said, your playing was great!

How about delay? Can you explain it please? 🙏

[@arnaudchabo]

I would be glad to explain the delay, but I don't use any delay. Maybe you're talking about the tone "computer room" It's the factory preset, I didn't tweaked anything. We should ask Roland's staff ;-)

[@markferreri5814]

I think he was referring to the latency between the video and audio . . .

[@arnaudchabo]

@@markferreri5814 I don't think so.. but anyway. There is something very strange that I don't understand. On my phone, and on my computer, the audio is perfectly synchronised with the video, but yes, some of my friends told me that they could see latency.. I don't know what happen ? My uncle told me he had latency one day, and no latency the day after !! I don't understand that and I have no idea how to fix it.

[@thefreereed]

nice demo sounds great, thanks for preparing. Does anyone know how roland cloud sounds in comparison to an integra7?

[@BigBoyTraks]

The main difference is the "Integra" has "Supernatural Sounds", Roland Cloud does not have that.

[@djangofett4879]

You have some access to "rompler" type sounds on there , but integra has a really massive library of them (all the hits from jv and xv series plus all SRX expansion cards) along with the supernatural sounds (which is just a more advanced rompler).

[@EricCorminier]

Merci Arnaud pour la vidéo. Comment trouves-tu les sons dits "classiques" de l'intégra (piano/ep/strings...), comparés à ceux du CP ?

[@arnaudchabo]

Salut Eric, C'est très surprenant. Au début j'ai trouvé les pianos de l'integra assez ternes et décevants. Ils ne me plaisaient pas énormément, je préférerais le CP73 plus détaillé. Et puis mon oreille s'est déshabituée du son yamaha. Et maintenant je préfère largement les pianos du Roland. Le yamaha me semble maintenant métallique, agressif. Ça me fait bcp réfléchir sur la perception que j'ai de la qualité du son d'une marque. En fait c'est fluctuant. Bref, je trouve les pianos de l'integra plus équilibrés. J'ai même cherché un RD800 pour continuer avec cette marque. Les cordes de l'integra ne me plaisent pas du tout. Pour les nappes j'utilise plutôt un pad. Pareil pour le CP73, je n'aime pas les violons. C'est dans le kurzweil Forte7 que j'avais trouvé le meilleur son de corde (un cello à tomber par terre) Les Rhodes du CP73 sont magnifiques. Idem pour le wurlitzer. J'ai trouvé un fender Rhodes excellent dans une carte d'extension de l'integra. Le wurlitzer est un peu moins bon. En ce moment, je trouve de nouveaux "best sons" dans l'integra. Par exemple un son de D50 qui est énorme pour jouer les riffs 80's de "take on me" ou "Holidays" Bref, j'adore cette machine. Je suis sur le point de revendre mon CP73 pour racheter un Forte7 d'occase, pour contrôler l'integra7. Je pense que ça pourrait devenir la fin de mon errance matérielle, pour constituer mon set pour un bout de temps. Voilà voilà :-)

[@EricCorminier]

@@arnaudchabo Bonjour Arnaud. Toujours emballé par l'intégra ? Il me titille toujours... quel est le temps de boot à peu près ?est-ce que tu penses qu'il fait un peu "daté" par rapport aux sonorités zencore actuelles ? Merci

[@arnaudchabo]

@@EricCorminier salut Eric, Le temps de boot est très rapide. 28 secondes avec les 4 slots virtuels utilisés (c'est le max, à chaque expansion board utilisant un slot, ça rallonge le temps de boot) J'en suis toujours très satisfait et j'apprécie le concept "expandeur/clavier midi". Par contre, oui, à l'usage, je trouve quand même que les pianos acoustiques sont datés. Les Rhodes et les DX sont très bien. Le wurlitzer est pas terrible. En fait j'aimerais ajouter un expandeur qui contiendrait les pianos du yamaha CP et les orgues du Crumar mojo.. mais ça n'existe pas. Pour le moment j'utilise en complément un yamaha CP4 stage. Bref, tout dépend de ce que tu veux faire avec l'Integra. Je n'ai pas essayé de claviers Roland récents, je ne peux pas en parler. Le dernier fantom à l'air monstrueux. Mais c'est une trop grosse bête (et trop chère)

[@EricCorminier]

@@arnaudchabo Merci pour ton retour rapide ! Celà confirme ce que je pressentais. Malgré ses qualités, l'expandeur ne sera pas mon joujou idéal !! actuellement, j'utilise un clavier maitre SL73 qui me convient par son toucher et sa compacité, conjuqué avec une MPC pour les sons samplés 'Piano/Ep/Strings et les plugins internes) et un rack Nordlead A1 pour les sons purement synthé. Pour disposer de sons "classiques" plus généreux et plus pratiques (avec la MPC, il faut charger les sons à chaque fois dans les projets), peut être me faudra t-il repenser à utiliser l'ordi en complément... Merci encore et ...bonne année :-)

I think that the Integra 7 can be used as an audio interface for home studio, have you ever checked it? And in case of that, what sample rates can you use? Thanks and nice performing man!

[@arnaudchabo]

I didn't knew that integra7 could be used as an interface. That's very interesting. I'll try it as soon as possible.

[@jeave6286]

Sorry but he's unable to do it. It's not an audio interface. You can just transfert audio from your PC to your Integra 7. As i know, you can't play sound of a VSTI thru this machine. Simple to do, but Roland don't want...

[@truthmanifestingtruth]

@@jeave6286 that’s what audio interfaces do…transfer audio….transferring midi is a 2ndary feature that some have. The integra 7 can function as an audio interface and have your daw sounding thru its output to monitors.
