As a hip hop producer...the MC 707 has become the centerpiece of my production suite. I've always favored the groovebox workflow. This machine is 🔥

[@DyReckProductions]

Nice!

[@corduroyinstitute]

If I had to downsize the studio to just one machine, this would be it. It's a one-stop shop for synths/drum/sampling/time stretch/looping/effects/sequencing. It may not do them all perfectly or efficiently, but it overcomes the limitations of most machines out there while still feeling like a performance instrument.

[@DyReckProductions]

True.

[@RoneySmithseedoflife]

I bought a MC-707 last summer after realizing that I could be wrong about what it could actually do beyond the weird vibes its name was giving me and as a result, I have picked up several pieces of the Roland Aira lineup to become a true fanboy lol 😂 The MC-707 is already much deeper and wider now than it was last summer to the point that starting an analysis all over again on what it is and can do is necessary. Hands down, it has quickly become one of my best gear purchases independent of a desktop computer and yet it can work well with any DAW! It is possibly the best kept secret weapon for hip hop that people are not sharing! Go black and green and don’t look so mean lol 😂 🎯🎯🎯🎯

[@DyReckProductions]

I feel you on that..Its definitely a secret weapon.

[@mikenoface]

What up, Roney. Fellow MC-707 owner here. I think the two things that are bothering me are 1. The default drum kits are all basically the 909 kit with one kick and one snare changed. They could've done wayyyyy better in terms of the drums that shipped with the unit. 2. We need a synth editor (and sample utility) for Mac/PC/iOS badly. The synth engine is super deep and sounds great, but editing on that screen is a chore. Otherwise.. I'm happy. Super easy to sequence on once you get the flow. Peace.

[@RoneySmithseedoflife]

@@mikenoface I agree! From seeing editors appear for other devices when they were least expected from third party developers, I believe that an editor is either on the way or already exists and we have not discovered it yet lol 😂 I recently found 2 for an old Yamaha keyboard that I have as well as seeing that Omnisphere will edit the JD-Xi and others. Since Roland Cloud exists, it may be our best bet in the short term. Peace ✌🏾

[@ripskip160]

@@mikenoface I actually sold my 707 because the drum kits are awful. Roland should be ashamed of itself for releasing a $1000 machine with terrible drum kits. I would of forgiven them if there was an easy way to make your own kits. I even bought the ones from Roland Cloud and they were still 909s!! SMH

[@RoneySmithseedoflife]

It has been full year and I now see that many of our wish list items have been checked off plus the chains have been moved for big first downs back to back! Are there any items left or add-ons to be desired as seen elsewhere? With everything Roland has added to the MC-707, it seems that the trends and tides moving between hardware and software are being eliminated and unified. How are you doing with your MC-707 these days and what gear and DAWs are you connecting it to?

@DyReck Productions. You should a Video on the most underappriecated piece of Analog equipment, the Roland MicroComposer MC-202 which is a combination of the Roland SH-101 and the Roland TB-303. The only Artist that ever used it was The Crystal Method when they used it on their track Cherry Twist from their 1997 Debut Album Vegas.

[@WarzoneVictoryWins]

Roland could have increased the sample time if they wanted to, but they want you to buy their loopers as well.

[@DyReckProductions]

Lol. That sucks..I hate when they hold something back instead of just giving the people what they want.

[@controllerforce4257]

😔

[@thelabby9998]

In fact this is more a RC707 than an MC707... MV1 could have been the bastard child between MV8800 and Sp555 but Roland will need 2 years of firmware updates to get the idea about switching scenes from external midi. ATM nothing like that is implemented (and midi implementation chart is sad af...)

[@oldschooljohnny]

It looks like a midi step sequencing keyboard without the keyboard. I used Roland gear for years, MC 505 202 & 303. They used to be the very best of the best. They still have a place in my heart, even though I converted to Akai gear since then. Awesome

[@DyReckProductions]

Yeah the work flow is similar to those older drum machines..But it does have a real time record if you dont want to use the step sequencer.

[@DyReckProductions]

Yeah man.

[@Thought-Forms]

i had one and sold it last year, but recently bought one again. after a week with it back in the studio, ive come to the conclusion that this is the best groovebox for house / techno. also works great as a brain for an external setup. def not an MV, more related to the legendary mc-303, mc-505, and mc-909. in a v2 would love them to keep the small screen, enhance the build quality / material, some software enhancements and I think we'd be gucci

[@DyReckProductions]

I feel you..The good thing is they been updating it..Lets see how long that lasts.

[@emomagica]

I'm trying to decide between mc707 and mv-1. I don't care about small screens. I work in front of a computer 12+ hours a day, music is a hobby I want to take away from the computer and go sit in a corner and just create. Mv-1 lacks the adjustability of the mc707 but the vocal recording ability and effect attract me. I'm not into things like the Mpc and it's workflow. I want simple, even if limited

Guitar center online has them used for around $750-$800 , sometimes you can catch them cheaper than that. And you got 45 days to return it if you dont like it Lol

[@DaveDaves]

YES - re the Roland MC-x0x grooveboxes were always marketed to DJs and techno / EDM makers. I don't rap but I do hip-hop-ish and I've always used them (currently MC-909). Nobody else posting MC-909 videos (or any MC-x0x) is doing hip hop vibes. And likewise the MPC has the reputation for the hip-hop and ppl don't realize its equally competent for EDM. The guys who did the Stranger Things 80s analog synth vibe theme music used MPCs, people were surprised because they thought MPCs are for hip-hop. So ridiculous. RZA using the MC-909 is the only publicized exception I recall.

[@mattspazmatic]

I lucked out and got mine for $750. The faceplate is slightly lifted on one corner though, imma fix it. I love that thing.

[@Natural_Order]

Your videos are really helping me make it through this 2nd vaccine phew

[@DyReckProductions]

Lmao!

[@apoclypse]

I think the reason why they don't advertise the MC707 to the hip hop crowd is because Roland had said their intention with the MC707 was more for DJs and live performance. There is no song mode, though they literally just released an update that added Scene chaining after about 2 years of people asking for it. The verse lab is more for making songs, it has a song mode, let's you record vocals etc. Personally I would still go with the MC707 because it's a really nice groovebox with a very nice (though maybe not intuitive) sample/synth engine built in and the screen is better than that calculator displays they got on the MV.

[@DyReckProductions]

Yeah I feel you on the screen..They should have made the one on the MV-1 much bigger..I think thats why they dont let you go too much into the Zencore on the MV-1.

Much like the 909, it had a bumpy start but with the updates and bug fixes, it’s a stellar piece of gear. The zencore is really great for sound design. The sequencer blows away the 909. Sneaky great performance design. They cut the fat and boosted the lean meaty parts. You can pick one up used for less than 700!

[@GrootsieTheDog]

@@MeneTekelUpharsin as far as presets go, there are thousands. And it’s easy to design any sound you would want. Like all synths, it has some drawbacks. You have to choose between ring mod or sync - you can’t have both affecting the same two oscillators. The filters, like most virtual analog filters are not great. Good but not great. The sequencer is nearly perfect but a huge drawback is that it does not have probability per note - something even a 300.00 Novation Tracks sequencer has. It’s been an update request for years but still no probability.

Huh? Akai has been doing nothing but since they released the Live so many years back. Not only have the developers been responsive to user feature requests, they actually do make it into the MPCs eventually. I mean compare MPC 2.0 versus 2.9 and it's almost a whole new machine. Compare the Force 3.0 versus 3.0.6 and that is 100% a whole new machine. Akai has been more responsive to users than Native Instruments or Roland have ever been imo.

When this machine get lower at price it will be perfect for modders who will probably expand the internal memory (after crack the chips probably custom by Roland), then add a proper screen or VGA/HDMI output (maybe Roland will give Zenbeats support to this?) like people did with Mpcs and jjOSXL...

Lol Yeah Roland is a strange company.. Always doing only what they want to do..And alot of times forgetting about the customer.

They should have made the sampling and editing and chopping much better. This is a huge disappointment!

[@DyReckProductions]

They dont have too much sampling options..Its enough to get by..But I feel you for $1,000 It should have more.

[@thegroove2000]

Roland fucked up again.

[@DyReckProductions]

Lol.

Its not a sampler really its a full blown synthesizer and prolly the best multifx unit ever made thing has all the boss pedals and their iconic tape echo all inside that box. Put it with a midi keyboard and let the legendary roland synths games begin. They had the mc909 for them hip hop jungle guys but it got shadowed by the mpc 4000 so they prolly said fffk it lets aim to the techno house dudes🤣 i aint never changing my mpc x and 4000 i can make 3hrs live techno.with my mpc x and a tr8s oh i am a techno dude.🤣 I have a juno a jdxa and a system 8 for them roland synths. But this could be a very good solution if ya into strictly hypnotic dub techno with em short atmospheres and aggreassive basslines with bit of emo pads. Its a killer box there. I know dudes make 1hr sets with it on that dub sound. But for other genres. Hm..also the sound vs tr8s and mpc.. is less. Comes.more.hot outside and you can hear it too on the final mix. But job well.done roland for making a memorabilia box and a killer effector all in one.

[@DyReckProductions]

Yeah Roland did a good job with this..Much better than the Verselab.
