The Roland M-VS1 Vintage Synth module is one of my workhorses. Very good sounds of the most classic synths. Here can you find the full playlist: ru-vid.com/group/PLe08Lbpy8pPZs3uIrcsp_gAatfaqWcZUN
May ve you can help me out. I just need one specifoc sound from ond fthat Drum Kits, (PC-06) called "Atmosphere". Do you think you could record it and send it to me??? I rwally would appreciate it because years back I had my own M-VS1 but unfortunately sold it, And I used that specific sound for a track which I wann recreate. Please, plase, please send me a DM Cheers, Mark
I bought mine new years ago from Soho Soundhouse in London when they were selling the last few at about half original list price. They had one on display so I put on headphones and began trying all of the presets starting at no. 1. Things sounded good, but as soon as I got to the Mellotron patches, particularly no.57 (choir), that was it. SOLD!! I have since used the M-VS1 on almost all of my recordings. Having watched your video I really must begin using it for more than just the Mellotron!
@@retrosound72 Thanks for responding. I think I’ll go with the Vintage Keys though. The Roland does sound better on most synths and the Mellotron, but the Vintage Keys contains a lot more non synth keyboards. The CP 70 sounds amazing in particular to me.
I have the Vintage Keys with added expansion. Its samples are very punchy, in Your face. Lacks effects and mimiking them detuning or so on steals polyphony voices. So it is better to use an external unit. But really, I like it a lot. The keyboard version has some added features. And I would like to purchase a newer and more powerful Vintage Keys Pro (mine is now enhanced as the Plus version...). This said, I keep both the Roland and the E-mu: a great friendship!😊
Wow, I thought I knew about the synth market in the 90's, but this nice little expander seems to have went right above my head. You learn something new every day :-) I wonder if that was Rolands try to cache in to the Emu Protheus success?
Actually, it should be all the same waveforms as the SR-JV/SRX "Vintage Synth" cards. I think the only difference with the M-VS1 is that it has no user patches and can only be edited live via SysEx. I have the SR-JV80-04 card in my JV-1080...which I need to use more after listening to this. ;-)
What's the point if it contains the same waveforms as SR-JV80-04 which you can put in JD/JV/XV-series rackmount modules and have much more editing options?
Hi :) only on your video is the sounds very good, the others youtube test of M-vs1 sounds cheap. Do the sounds of this video come out of the roland M-VS1?? Don't you think ? Thank you in advance
Just purchased one of these off reverb. Should be here in a couple of days. Had the card several years ago that unbeknownst to the store i got it from was tucked away in a jv880. Always wanted the hardware version but it was always just out of reach until a few days ago.
Awesome - I cleared out all my synths a while back but I kept this module. I'd love to know if this was ever used by famous bands, I wonder because patch 63 is a spot on for the intro of Salva Mea by Faithless
