Features
* You can play music files using only your computer, no external sound module is necessary.
* VSC is compatible with GM1 and GM2 System, as well as GS Format, a form of music files conforming to specifications for Roland sound modules. Additionally, VSC sounds are compatible with sounds from other models in Roland's line of GS sound modules, including the SC-55(mkII), SC-88, and SC-88Pro, allowing you to play music files exclusive to these devices. (In certain situations, VSC may play back the music files differently due to the difference in the specifications.)
* VSC is a multitimbral sound module featuring 16 parts, for a maximum of 128 voices. In addition, VSC comes with 902 sounds and 26 drum sets (using SC-88Pro Map-compatible sound sets) built in, making spectacular ensemble performances possible (you can also switch to SC-55 Map-compatible and SC-88 Map-compatible sound sets).
* VSC features audio file conversion, which makes converting Standard MIDI Files to audio files a snap.
* Not only can you play music files in the Player window, you can also change the tempo and key. You can also compile the songs you like in sets and save them as Song Lists.
* In the Controller window, you can easily switch sounds (instruments), adjust volume levels, and change parts in other ways, as well as mute parts.
* Internal reverb, chorus, and delay effects lend greater musical expression to your performances.
* The integrated TVF (Time Variant Filter) provides more natural expression when you play.
* You can display the levels and monitor the processor load for each part, a useful reference when checking on the status of the performance and making custom settings.
* You can freely make settings affecting processor load, sound quality, effects, and more, so you can customize the settings to match the performance capabilities of your computing environment.
* You can also set expression response (however, you may be unable to change the response in certain environments).
* You can use VSC as a sound module for a variety of software outputting MIDI messages.
* With a computer equipped with the Intel Pentium III processor, you can enjoy even greater performance.
* VSC is compatible with DirectSound, thus allowing synchronization of game sound effects and other sounds with on-screen action (available only with applications compatible with DirectSound.)
* The Help icon in the Windows Taskbar lets you make settings for VSC easily, right from the desktop.
