Cheers Viktor for stopping by! Glad the step by step was helpful, more soon! :)

Thanks for listening :)

It's a pleasure, having lots of fun. Let me know how you go with yours!

It's all about the bass! (+the vocals:) Yep you really don't need anything else, it's all there in one box...🙏🏽😊 Glad you like the review :)

Hope you managed to work it out ok!! And sorry late reply I must have missed this bit finally got the app which showed me! :)

Yes fine thanks i've watched your latest techno - very nice !

Thanks so much, sorry late reply!

Thanks for your feedback! Really nice to know it helped, how are you enjoying the Verselab? :)

@@stellarrubio hi! Thanks for the reply! I’m doing ok. It’s my first digital production tool so I just need to realise there are work around a and not get frustrated. I’m actually enjoying working it out. I didn’t see the notification of reply so I was actually coming back to this video to watch it AGAIN (coz more bits sink ib thru the dense skull every time🤦‍♂️) Making sections that are not straight 16/32/64 is tricky as it sometimes just plays the forst 16 of a 20 step section when I put it in song mode, so that’s wierd. I’m working on it. I do a lot in 6/8 time so trying to get swing going is very tricky and as yet I’ve failed. Th shuffle isn’t all that intuitive, but I use your trick of delay on the hi-hat and that is helpful. Along with being a very slick creative producer your videos are really professional and you communicate very well and clearly. Roland should get you to do their videos. Yours very gratefully LJ

Well thank you 🙏🏼 so much!!

Thanks so much for watching :)

Thanks glad it explained well for you, new video out tomorrow :)

Yes I guess the whole vibe is! The music and the way of making it old skool style!! Thanks for watching! New video up today too:)

Thanks for the comment and sorry late reply but new video up if you're interested about the vocal production aspects :)

You're welcome 😊

Thanks Nath, glad you like the track! And yes, super versatile, so many genres to choose from :)

@@stellarrubio Your singing voice is tailer made for edm, awesome

Ah thanks, totally enjoy making vids on the MV-1 :)

@@stellarrubio looking foward to more vids.;) I found it a bit diffycult that you only can record your voice when you playing your song. But maybe it has to be technical that way.. Have to read the full manual finaly. 😽

Thanks so much! A little help from the FX :)

Cheers David, I'll have to try out some other genres soon! Thanks for watching and the nice comment :) What music are you making?

Nuthin?

@@Einnor084 Soz Ron, I’ve been busy. I make hip hop and electro-funk mainly. Currently use Maschine, Blackbox and Circuit as my main bits of gear but have a load older drum machines and samplers lying around as well as guitars, basses and a box full of percussive toys.

Thanks for the visit and nice feedback :)

Thanks Steve!

Hope it’s going well now you’ve had it a few months? :)

Hey Peter, I must check out this group !! Sounds intriguing...

Thanks `flux, (whenever I see your name I think of Flux capacitor in BTTF!)

@@stellarrubio Ha! Well, that was the inspiration. I focus on vintage electronics and in the early days, capacitors were called condensers. So, the name is a vintage-twist on the “Flux Capacitor” from the movie.

Hey, working on a video about how to do this and more as we speak should be up Sunday :)

You are welcome! thanks for stopping by my channel :)

@@stellarrubio Hi Estelle I had my verselab for a month i still have hair on page 27 of the manual you can put PROBABILITY on a Drum Track called MTE it takes a bit to get used to I tried it on the KIt

Ah Tee thank you so much. Your comments made my day, really appreciate feedback on the composition! Will polish it more in next vid with more features :) Yes I have noticed they are out of stock and waiting lists for it...let me know when you get it and start getting hands on with your new MV-1 E x 🙏🏽😊🌟

@@stellarrubio yes..i sure will..i produce and make beats of all kind and thank you for having such a beautiful personality and sense of humor ..❤

thanks Stewart! :)

Glad it helped, and congrats on your new MV-1! Happy music making and more videos soon for sure...

@@stellarrubio Thanks, maybe with an acoustic guitar....

over line in

Hey Tom, thanks for watching and yes I will be exploring the final part of process in my next video. It's pretty deep and once connected to Cloud even more options! It's great to have another way to write and to have a break from 'Lockdown' screen time! :)

Thanks for watching, more news coming soon on the questions you asked as there will be integration! New video just up too :)

Thanks! Random questions welcome's too!! I found it on eBay when searching white studio chair. Hope that helps...Glad you noticed I love it, and it's super comfy and rocks :)

@@stellarrubio Thanks :-)

working on the edit for a video of this at this very moment, up on Sunday :)

@@stellarrubio Thank you dear Estelle

It definitely has plenty of soundscape fx and sounds in the library and good choice of fx. Generally the sounds are excellent for any style but make sure you have plenty of se cards for storage and you can make pretty lengthy tracks too...I find it ultra creative but especially for ease of songwriting ... hope that helps!

@@stellarrubio it helps alot, thanks so much!

gracias 🙏🏽😊😊

Make sure you elect the previous sound first by clicking Value Knob :) Hope the vids helped and have fun making music!

select :)

@@stellarrubio Thank You

hi and thanks for lovely comment :) No it wouldn't eat in to vox times. Samples is a separate feature I need to put in another vid (sooo many features!!) Yes, you can bounce tracks and re-sample though that's half the fun! Also I've yet to fill an 8 Gig SD card even though I've done 6 tracks and loads vocals so far! You can also back-up in storage mode, more on that too in next vid. :)

@@stellarrubio Oh brilliant! I thought I might have to pair it with a cheap sampler to really get freaky with samples, but if you're saying you can bounce/ resample without killing vox time then that really boosts this workstation for me. I think some of the earliest reviews have missed or glossed over some of these key capabilities, which hasn't presented the 'Lab in its best, or even just a good light. Thanks for digging into the detail. Can't wait for the next vid! :)

No you don't lose the Vox takes, you can re-arrange the song and vox parts as much as you like and very easily. Great for remixes, extended mixes etc. Will be doing another vid soon on arranging vox / mixes / bouncing etc. :)

@@stellarrubio excellent news, thank you just waiting for the mv-1 to come into stock in UK

Cool, thanks for sharing, will def want to experiment with some latin 3/4 6/8 rhythms thanks for sharing :)

Sorry late reply but yes can really only use a dynamic mic with it that way, back with new content today after a break but thanks for the comment and hope I finally answered the question! Did I get an MV1? :)

Thanks for the sub! Yes most of them and plenty more and access to zen beats too:)

ah yes for vox and also running mixes through too :)

Never tried them together not sure it’s possible as you need an audio interface… sorry late reply just back on RU-vid after a bit of a break (new vid today too!) have you enjoyed the Verselab? 😊

Yes you definitely can! That's its purpose that u won't need a dAW so you can make a whole song without! Sorry late reply was editing my new video...up today :)

👌😂🎼

Hey Ludek thanks for visiting and i really appreciate the lovely comments esp about the singing as that makes me most nervous!! I’ve never skipped that sequence and don’t think it’s possible to do so although you can start recordings (I often do quite long ones and then chop and sample them later in the process!) hope this helps and sorry late reply… also just added a new vid but not about the MV1 this time! 😊🙏🏼

thank you so much Estelle👍

cool thanks! (the music or the device?)

@@stellarrubio music..

unless on the same track at the same time. If not record in airs like in a daw, hope this helps sorry late reply!

@@stellarrubio okay, thank you so much !!

hehe :) Made me smile comment, new video up if you want to see more that it does :)

😊🙏🏽🎼❤️

Oh thankyou! Very kind and yes it's super versatile-good point!! 😊🙏🏽

Thanks for ass wking sorry about delay but should be up this weekend :)

@@stellarrubio Hey, ok kool thanks. I actually just received the Verselab this week. I'm still trying to get used to it tho...The workflow feels kinda awkward to me so I'm trying to get familiar.

aha yes I love producing and performing but not editing so much...prob need a helper! Thanks for tuning in tho :)

@@stellarrubio I think you need an editing minion 😂 Very good overall though 👍

has 16+ More if you include sampling, just added a new video about vocal tracks too :)

thanks so much for the feedback :) New vid/song up today also :)

Thanks Kenny! Love the emojis :) added a new video today too and more tips coming soon 🔜 too!

@@stellarrubio Blessed , Bless ... It not about the quantity it is about the Quality is one of my mantras ... I havent seen many of your vids but what I saw I love it and its inspirational , I am an entrepreneur and musician of sorts that appreciate all genres and your music inspired me with just the love you put out to do your thing!
