Hello all,
I have an Edirol UM-880 8 channels midi interface in another place than my house
It's a very good product but I fear that there are no Windows 10 drivers for it
does anyone also have this product and use it with recent computers ?
thanks in advance,
Bernard

I googled Edirol UM-880 win 10 drivers and this was on one of the sites:

Edit - I hope this works for you.

thank you so much Mario !
I hate it when a perfectly good hardware cannot be used anymore because software is not up to date/nobody sells supplies anymore/whatever
I have 3 printers that are only taking dust because of this (The culprits are HP and Samsung)
I will plan a raid to the mentioned place where there is also a FS1R (the best super-FM synth ever) and other things

oh, by the way, I love the jokes you post ;-)

If you are looking for a DX7 type synth you might want to get the free DEXED:

https://www.kvraudio.com/product/dexed-by-digital-suburban

It comes with a lot of presets and can read DX7 sysex. There is virtually every DX7 patch out there for free. I have a lot of them here that I use in DEXED.

I hope this helps.

thanks Mario, much appreciated
you can't beat the price obviously
but the FS1R is in a different league
I bought one for 800 euros new and it was not a commercial success
but now people have realized their mistake
it is a lush sounding machine
there is now someone selling one for 4000(!) euros on ebay:
