Edirol PCR
By JB
I have 7 Roland pieces of gear other than this one. They are all superbly engineered and accompanied by the worst manuals one can imagine.This PCR control surface integrates in Cakewalk Sonar 7 flawlessly--but you would never know it reading the Cakewalk Help files.If you order this item, load it to a direct USB port, not a hub. When booting the computer, do not boot other USB music devices until it has booted.When used in Sonar, you simply select it in Options, Edirol PCR 2 IN, Edirol PCR OUT. Select Edirol PCR 1 in a track to record from the keyboard.Hitting the Dynamic Mapping Button brings up the surface controller from the Tools menu.When you load up a synth or use it as a mixer surface for audio, all the mapping has been done. Just move the controls and watch the values change on the track screens or Synth window.Ignore all that mapping nonsense. Cakewalk has done it.And you can make it learn new stuff in ACT--read the help file or watch the video on Cakewalk's site.In Project 5, this thing is an entire orchestra control.It would be nice if Roland actually hired people to write manuals that made some sense. It's a big joke among many of us that use Roland gear.

Great with SONAR ACT
By J. Dyer
After spending months and hundreds of dollars on MIDI controller keyboards to use with SONAR's ACT technology, I had given up. I spent months trying to get either my KORG Kontrol49 or M-Audio Axiom 49 to work as (reasonably) well as an ACT controller without luck. Purchased the PCR-300 and laughed at how easy it was to simply plug and play to get full control of SONAR. Forget all the custom mapping and templates supplied by KORG and M-Audio to work in SONAR. Full trasport, track and plug-in control pretty much right out of the box. Now, until they come out with a MIDI controller that has 200 plus knobs, buttons and sliders, you will have to "page through" ACT settings to access ALL of the controllable parameters, but all the major ones are available at your fingertips from startup. With Roland owning both Edirol and Cakewalk, I'm glad they got their foot in the door with this one.The rotaries are nice and silky, buttons are a bit "shallow" (would like a bit more give on those) and the sliders are traditionally thin and loose feeling. It's hard to find a controller with the same silkiness and resistance on the sliders as they have on the rotaries.In summary, the ease of setup (and relief from previous hardship) and the decent build make for a welcome investment.
