Roland has been making interfaces for music on computers since 1984 with the original MPU-401. The near 30 years of experience and understanding the importance of keeping pace with technology is clearly demonstrated with the release of Windows 8 drivers on October 26th, which is the same day Windows 8 began shipping.<\/p>\n

To ensure delivery on the Windows 8 release, Roland\u2019s engineering team has been building and testing the new drivers alongside the Windows 8 beta releases.<\/p>\n

If you own any of the products below and have Windows 8 please download the drivers using the links below.
\nAll CAPTURE series interfaces including the OCTA-CAPTURE USB Audio Interface<\/a> and QUAD-CAPTURE USB Audio Interface<\/a> have Windows 8 drivers available in both 32- and 64-bit formats.<\/p>\n

The A-PRO series is also fully supported including the A-800PRO MIDI Keyboard Controller<\/a> and new A-49 MIDI Keyboard Controller<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here is a full list of Roland products that already have Windows 8 driver support: www.RolandUS.com\/Win8<\/a><\/p>\n

We hope you enjoy Windows 8 and the new drivers!<\/p>\n
