VivatRudolphus Full Member Registered: 12/24/10 Posts: 52 Loc: Italy	Roland has released an update for the FP-7F. The first thing I tried is checking if the problem when sustaining the second voice in the piano group still cuts the strings abruptly is still there, and it is still there. If you find out what has changed (except from the expression pedal thing mentioned in the release notes) please let us know.

RafaPolit Full Member Registered: 06/20/11 Posts: 149 Loc: Quito, Ecuador	Hey friends, been absent for a while. Thanks for this post. Since I'm not using an expression pedal, I am not sure if the update is justified. If anyone else finds another key difference, I'll be very thankful for any extra information! Thanks again, Rafa. _________________________ Roland FP-7F

dewster 3000 Post Club Member Registered: 12/07/09 Posts: 3410 Loc: Northern NJ	Originally Posted By: Kawai James Has anyone been able to open the disk images (.img files)? The the "diskimage.txt" file has this in it: Code: datarom2.bin /dev/nor0 0x000C0000 0xd881 loader.bin /dev/nor0 0x000E0000 0x8891 a.rom /dev/nor0 0x000F0000 0x72fb datarom.bin /dev/nor0 0x00480000 0x44f7 DATAROM/diskimgsum.txt /dev/nor0 0x004Bfffc 0x00fa DATAROM/disk0.img /dev/nor1 0 0xa200 DATAROM/disk1.img /dev/nor2 0 0x9155 The files "a.rom" and "loader.bin" have this at the start: Code: Roland CKB01.1 Head 1.00 The file "datarom.bin" has this at the start: Code: RolandFP-5 N±Q®11-10-003 ... stlrom.bin The file "datarom2.bin" has this at the start: Code: RolandLX-10 N±Q®11-10-003 ... fix510.bin The file "disk0.img" has this at the start: Code: FAT32 ... This is not a bootable disk. Please insert a bootable floppy and press any key to try again ... From the above "/dev/nor0" is interesting, possibly targeting NOR Flash? Any imbedded programmers here? Does this look like it could be for Linux? _________________________ The DPBSD Project! THE RD-700NX Thread! DPs Exposed! (nekid pichures)

I had a look at the V-Piano firmware image a while ago. It, the FP-7F, and a few other models run TOPPERS/FI4, a small embedded operating system, which appears to be based on the, in Japan, very popular ITRON codebase. The command interface uses many Unix conventions, but that's where the similarity ends. http://www.toppers.jp/fi4-kernel.html

dewster 3000 Post Club Member Registered: 12/07/09 Posts: 3410 Loc: Northern NJ	Yes, interesting info and link, thanks Soren Jorvang! I particularly like the instant noodle timer - it always amazes me how complex code can appear for something so simple. Coders seem to delight in Byzantine syntax. _________________________ The DPBSD Project! THE RD-700NX Thread! DPs Exposed! (nekid pichures)
