What if i want to record output of machine, lets say one full 16 bar beat as a sample ( =can u run beat and record it at the same time?) possible?

Do you connect your guitar directly? For me it doesn't work because the output is insufficient.

So I’m a guitar owner (not much of a player 🤣) and I keep looking at the Boss RC’s (looper products) and the Roland dedicated loopers to add to my setup for practicing scales against chord progressions…. I own an mc 707.. a Force.. and an SP 404.. but none are quite as user friendly as a dedicated pedal.. which sucks!! With the gear I own I should need to by any more kit!…. I need a solution for this… but I will try the 707 out. What is the limit for for looper sample time (I’m guessing it’s short?)..

Hi thanks for doing this video. Three Qs: 1#Can you start sampling at anytime/anywhere on the unit/like when tweeking internal settings or real-time FX/scatter play? 2#Can you freely jump between the trim/sample edit window and pads? (re-edit sample /start/end /loop points time stretch etc? 3#Can you assign a sample chop to pad layers from the trim sample window, or do you have to scroll through menus? Thx!✌️🔊🔊

Hey Jey, that should work out of the box. When you record a sample then you can then create a clip somewhere and press: SOUND. Then you can choose WAVE FILE and select the sample. You can then play it chromatically and even modify it like any other sound.

Thanks Todd. Really useful video. A question. How do you build a 'library' of longer samples, which later on you can use for different ways. For example, I would like to sample parts of songs from my vinyls (say, 10 to 20 seconds), which later on I can use in projects for chopping (short sounds in drum tracks, or longer sounds in looper tracks). I know how to record a sample from my vinyls, but I don't know how to do it in a way that lets me reuse it in a flexible way in the future. Any help with this would be super!
@ToddMakesMusic
@ToddMakesMusic 4 ай бұрын
I think the most straightforward way would be to record on your PC, take out the SD card from the MC707 and then put the samples into: ROLAND/GROOVEBOX/ SAMPLE directory. Then you can import the sample into your project by pressing SOUND and then WAVE FILE and then it is loaded into Oscillator 1 as a PCM (Sample). It actually works the same if you sample on the MC. If you sampled into a project you can then move the sample to the SAMPLE directory.

@ToddMakesMusic
@ToddMakesMusic 9 ай бұрын
When you play a scene and you have a looper track, then you can select a clip on the looper track and record from external an possibly another track as well. After the defined recording length in measures the looped recording will automatically be played, so the keyboard player can stop. All while the MC is in playback mode. Is that what you are looking for?

@@ToddMakesMusic in my case, the base synth keeps on playing its programmed sequence when the loop is recorded and being played. It want the MC 707 to stop playing the external input when the loop is playing. The I idea is to be able to change settings o. The base synth, while the recorded loop is playing and the at one point switch back to playing the external input again and stop playing the loop. This is something you often see people do on the Octatrack. Maybe there is a way to change the looper input track on the 707 with a midi cc command.

Man thank's so much for this video. Utilizing the effect chain so effective brings alot to the sound. I'm pretty sure that I can convince people that the mix and master happens on the computer. On the other hand it's worth mentioning that without mixing like this the sound is pretty muddy imao. But do you know a way to utilize the master effects also as a send (and I don't refere to delay and reverb. The master mfx section)?

Alles gut :) ich habe genau heute auch drüber nachgedacht, aber ich habe noch kein send Parameter für die drei Total Effects (MFX, eq, Compressor) gefunden. Das Handbuch hält sich bei dem Thema auch zurück. Ich glaube, es geht einfach nicht. Ich benutze von den Total Effects darum meist auch nur Reverb und Delay. Und mache das Mastering außerhalb des MCs. Aber letztlich sehe ich das auch so, wie du schreibst, man braucht den Computer nicht zwingend für das Mastering. Aber ich benutze bei fast allen Sounds irgend einen Effekt, der komprimiert, sonst sind einige Sounds nicht durchsetzungsfähig genug. In der DAW merkt man es einfach nicht so, weil man ja kaum eine Begrenzung bei der Effektwahl hat.
