@michaelfoletta-smith4795 3 месяца назад

I owned the MV1 for over 18 months. I wrote so many songs on it and it was so easy and fun. I then bought into the MPC live 2 thing. Sold the verselab, got frustrated with the mpc and lack of synths, sold the mpc and are now saving up to get the Verselab back. I love this thing. Small screen..not an issue, the mpc had a big screen but felt like an Apple ipad app.

I can appreciate that someone took a Roland project and applied some human workflow and logical thought to it. It is not much like the MC-707 that had no pattern chain (initially) or other products that just leave you wondering why on earth. Certainly it is not ready for the pros yet given the display and limitations, but this is great as a sketch pad or for banging out rap or some other genres. But this indicates that Roland is considering humans and their use of the tool which is exciting and deserves respect.

@cresshead 3 года назад

Excellent video, I think Roland made a very clever move with having the vocal track disconnected form the music sequences as singers come in just before bar 1 of a sequence.. also note if you want vocals around whilst constructing the music to say weave the music around a vocal you can load a vocal to a drum pad on a kit.

And that vocal "track" is actually 16 tracks 👍 and it's not just for vocals obviously as you could mic your amp or anything else. I still can't understand though if you can apply effects to an instrument that your inputting via the two inputs. Does anybody know if in real time I can apply say a boss compressor or a boss chorus while I'm playing my guitar to a song that I completed already? Thanks

@dracul74 Год назад

Have owned this for a bit. I also own a lot of the current market grooveboxes and hardware daws. Imo the MV-1 is a great backing track maker. 95 percent of my music doesn’t have a vocal. As a guitarist I use the vocal track for lead guitar (works great). I think the sounds in the box are some of my favorite. Imo it is much easier to get a great sounding mix quickly than most of my gear. Streaming the tracks into my daw is fantastic. I thought I’d hate the screen… but hasn’t really bugged me. Sure it is not my Mpc live in that regard, but it hasn’t been a big deal.

@eternalvernal1286 Год назад

Aaaaa.... finally a guitarist commenting. I have a question that I can't figure out. Can you apply all the effects within the mv1 onto your guitar when you input it via the stereo 1/4" inputs?

Any idea what I might be doing wrong? Thanks!

@loopop 3 года назад

Thanks! I assure you I suffered the same anxiety ;) I lucked out and it was exactly enough. However, if I needed more variety, there are a few hacks around this limitation, for example, sequencing clips at half speed, or indeed repeating sections and using vocal tracks for instruments. To your second question, yes you can use the vocal tracks for any audio, though there's no hi-z input so you'd need to run a guitar through an effect/DI or something to preserve its tone

@loopop, great video and review as usual. The one piece I didn't see in the review was external gear. As a hardware replacement for a DAW, can the MV-1 sequence external gear? I don't mean just as a master clock, but using each track to sequence a different piece of external hardware.

@loopop 3 года назад

Thanks - it can but I didn’t experiment with that

@enemoy2650 3 года назад

@@loopop do you know by any chance if it supports program change like the TR8S? That would be enough to e.g. chain different patterns on a Digitakt, which then sequences external hardware. Bit of a workaround, but it would be in the spirit of a dawless studio

What is the difference between the Verselab and MC707 ? Cheers

@mwl5 Год назад

Could I use this as a controller to make parts on an SP-404 MK2 and then play those parts within my song on the MV-1? I like how this is more linear and song-based, whereas I like the SP for creating cool sounds and effects, and want to combine the two.

Yeah... I think I'm going to add this to my MODX and Force

I can't manage the vocal patch. If I press "shift" + "vocal processor" it doesn't do anything, so I don't have autotune, radio mode, etc... Can you tell me why or how can I fix it? Thanks!!

@krsTBedfordStudios 3 года назад

This and the MC range and the Force etc are very much mobile DAWs in a box... interesting though, and I'm a big fan of the Zencore

@digitaldiezel5870 3 года назад

I can hear that the drums on the studio version sound better. I don't know if that was just a mix choice or a real difference in quality. I would lean towards the former without experience to the contrary. I hope people buy this. I'm looking forward to an MV-8 even though I like the mobility of the MV-1. I'd like more outputs to run it directly to a mixer/studio desk. Still this is a solid solution for mixing and finalizing in and out of the box.

The order of the sections must follow 1 to 16 in a song? Thanks for s great review

@loopop 3 года назад

Thanks, no it doesn’t, I just found it easier to organize things that way

Is needed near Akai Force and MC 707?

@coinoperatedboyoffic 3 года назад

I can definitely see this being a great creative ‘sketchpad’ rather than a replacement DAW for making professional productions. If the workflow is good, it could be a nice way to get ideas down quickly.

@MrVleker 3 года назад

Probably for a specific audience. It would be cool to get a tape or cassette extension for that "analog" feel :P

@admaiora777 2 года назад

hey Loopop, thanks again for such enlightening review. I actually have the MC707 and TR8S, for making ambient and techno music. Do you think this hardware may work better for techno than the mc707, considering the synth engine of the MC707? Greetings.

@loopop 2 года назад

I see this as more of a linear tool -though you can use it as a live tool. To my knowledge the 707 and MV-1 have the same sounds - so, IMHO, the MC707 would actually be the way to go, unless you specifically wanted a song mode with audio tracks

@admaiora777 2 года назад

@@loopop Thanks Mr Loopop for taking the time to answer. Have a nice day! :D

@ShaighJosephson 2 года назад

Think you already have the best setup for that... The MV-1's only advantage is the song mode...while everything else is the same or falls short of the MC-707's capabilities...

@rayg1654 2 года назад

I might be overlooking something, but whenever ive created a looper track I can't replace the sample, as with the tone, drum or drumkit tracks... It says 'not empty'. So I have to clear the looper track, set a looper track up again to choose another sample? That can't be true. Anyone?

@Rollur1234 9 месяцев назад

Whats your thought on the Retouch control. For example Push hack for using with other Daws + compatibility with virtually every VST out there... I know why not start using Ableton 😂 I will if this plugin wont work.
