The new drivers for Windows 8.1 are here.
That was realy fast:

But sadly not for my UA-101 or APRO500.

I'm confident that all Roland-gear with Windows 8 drivers will get 8.1 drivers aswell. For me I'm impressed that they, once again, launched the drivers on the same day as the new version of the operating system.

To the OP: Do you mean that it won't work with the 8.1 drivers? Otherwise I suggest you change the headline.

I wonder if that will affect the V-Studio 700 I/O.

I did the upgrade to 8.1...went smooth...

I installed the new QC Driver...smooth..

Ran X3...and now my faders are completely wacked.
If I move them at all they jump all over...

If I use the mouse wheel they move fine...but click and drag is wacked..
will post back if I find a fix...

X3 function so far seems ok other then the fader issue...but when I found that
I came here immediately...

Will continue on and report back..

All working fine here 8.1 and oct 1.52.
Hope you sort that problem Larry!

so I can get around it....

Everything else so far is in order and all went smooth...whew...

my quad capture is working after following these specific instructions from the link posted by Beepster http://www.rolandforums.co.uk/forums/viewthread/6335/#7818
 

EDIT: Fixed by editing the .inf driver settings in the Win8 x64 folder. Where it says ;;not supported, changed to [Roland.NTamd64.6.3]
;; Windows 8.1
%RDID0117DeviceDesc%=RDID0117Install, USB\VID_0582&PID_012F ; QUAD-CAPTURE

then followed the instruction here to bypass driver signing errors.

If you look in the .inf file a couple of lines above the place needing to be edited, the line you want is already written out. It works to just copy and paste this line.

 
 

It was actually Groovey1 that posted that. I was just quoting him/her. ;-)
 
 Looks like they got the new drivers out anyway. I take back my previous comment about slow driver release for the QC. Looks like they're on it. Still feel bad for those who dropped serious cash on those expensive studio controllers. I really hope they fix that for you guys. $2000 is a lot of dough to spend for something that turned into a pumpkin within a couple years.
