Well done, by far the best tutorial on the Scatter settings. Thanks!

[@badchannelname]

Awesome, such a deep and powerful device. Thanks for sharing your knowledge

[@crazygood4]

This is opening up a lot of possibilities for me, thx guvna

Really neat, looking forward for next videos !

[@DunizHenrixx]

Thanks a lot for the video, now I think the scatter will be useful 👌

Thank you

ty good video! its my first machine, so hard =) but so OP ! ty for explications

[@BassWorkENTRTNMT]

Man your track on the beginning is absolut fire! :OO

[@TUBEDIGGA]

Thanks 🙏 Drawn from my roots as a 15 year old raver 😊

[@dmallegro613]

Thanks a lot. I had a trouble with the scatter, as the deafault settings suck :-)

[@LucidMusicIncRecordings]

10:41 could watch this all day!

[@TUBEDIGGA]

Nice one, glad you enjoyed it :) Original Junglist!

[@LucidMusicIncRecordings]

​@@TUBEDIGGA The tutorial really simplified the scatter effects for me. Wish there was a way to latch the pads and have the scatter effects activate on beat. The default settings are way to extreme for my taste but for some subtle glitch, it's a nice add on effect.

[@espacemaxim]

MC707!!! Yes! Thx!!!

[@manne3d]

Great video! Can we trigger/sequence the scatter pads from external midi sequencer?

[@gullyman777]

Thanks for the video. Have you got any details around the scatter fx you created like a template or something?

[@dRew-something]

Great vid! I've got a mc101..was wondering if theres anyway to apply scatter effect without holding pad 1-16 down? I've selected 'aternate' but I'd like it to apply scatter from pad 11..not sure if the process to do this will be thd same on mc101.

[@felipefs106]

I have an mpc live, but I think I've moved completely to the MC 707. Mostly because of the synth engine , I really like how it sounds and the sampling capabilities of the 707 are enough for me.

[@TUBEDIGGA]

Felipe Fernández Sobarzo Yes the synth engine is extremely good, I’d like to see more advanced sampling features though.

[@toffchunks]

top !!! thks ;-)

[@Hainakan]

does the scatter affect each track during the recording via usb or is it just for the output???

[@guthyrenker]

I prefer the scatter on the mx-1, I know it's a lot more simple but it seems to be tighter, the 707 scatter can be quite messy I reckon. nice tutorial btw :)

[@TUBEDIGGA]

Yes it’s a shame it isn’t tighter, you get some annoying clicks if you don’t trigger it perfectly on time. Couldn’t understand why the actual trigger synchronisation wasn’t precise.

[@sebastianandrew9077]

I want those vocal samples!

[@individualism20]

does anyone know how to record the scatter function in real time while being recorded live into a DAW? I can only configure it to work for one track and I need the whole USB OUT to have the scatter effect engaged..... I would be eternally grateful if someone could share the answer.

[@johnthebigtree]

Thanks for the video. Is there any way to only scatter certain tracks? For example I hit the scatter button and only have it effect track 1 2 and 3 while the rest play on like normal?

[@johnthebigtree]

@en3970 That's a shame. My RC 505 does this and it's my favourite thing for jamming. I'd love a groove box type device to pair with my looper that does the same. Oh well, my search continues.

[@javest]

Could you send a single track to scatter, to don't scatter the other tracks?

[@TUBEDIGGA]

Yes, it’s not just a global effect

[@tomfurstyfield]

Nice to hear some banging jungle. Not sure if I missed it but can you use scatter on only one or selected tracks or is it a global thing? Thanks

[@TUBEDIGGA]

You can apply it globally or to a specific track. I forget exactly now as I sold my 707 a few months ago.

[@tomfurstyfield]

@@TUBEDIGGA no worries thanks

[@grazstarr]

@@TUBEDIGGA hi, thanks for makin the vids you did on the 707, great stuff for a user of it. Can I ask why you got rid of it?

[@TUBEDIGGA]

@@grazstarr Too much menu diving, the sample editing was very limited and the stuff I was making on it wasn’t very good. I’ve never kept hold of a Roland product. For me their instruments always have something irritating about the way they work which is frustrating as they could be great.

[@grazstarr]

@@TUBEDIGGA yeah... well articulated! I know what you mean. Thanks for the reply.

[@mixx-mastersinternat.djservice]

great, today io have started on the scatter , very helpful.. how can i copy and paste some Scatters to another pad, for example i want to make pads 9-16 only drum bet repeats an 1-9 only the MFX Types. and i like your sound at the beginninge, perhaps you can send the projects file to me.. thank you

[@TUBEDIGGA]

You can’t copy and paste the scatter pads to one another but if you have saved your project, you can import the scatter settings for a particular pad to another pad. That’s the workaround

[@mixx-mastersinternat.djservice]

@@TUBEDIGGA thanks. but honestly i dont know how tho change the Effects for each pad. everytime i change it, it changes it also for another pad. can you please explain the steps how to change the FX for each pad ??

[@TUBEDIGGA]

@@mixx-mastersinternat.djservice You have to press the pad you want to edit to select it.

[@mixx-mastersinternat.djservice]

@@TUBEDIGGA got it, thank you! i have assigned some colers and effects.. how do you set the cool stutter effect on pad 5 (1.28min) and this Slow down effect on pad 11 (2:36min). which effect/settings do you choose ? wold be nice to know ...

[@TUBEDIGGA]

@@mixx-mastersinternat.djservice I no longer have the 707 but from memory it is the beat repeat glide time / amount

[@DJMOFUNKTV]

[@LaymensLament]

Do you still plan on doing the tutorial series?

[@TUBEDIGGA]

I'm afraid not, I sold the 707 as it became frustrating to use what with the lack of certain sample editing functions. I also found myself using it for basic loops and messing around but not actually finishing any tracks whatsoever.

[@LaymensLament]

@@TUBEDIGGA Yeah, I think its more of a sketchpad. I just had the JD-Xi infront of me and that unit kind of reminds me of the MC-707 in a certain way. It has a lot of stuff in it but all the advanced functions are hidden in menues so the question becomes how useful are the easily accessible functions for what one does. Maybe stupid question but do you enjoy finishing tracks on the MPC One for example? I'm kind of hesitent to try one way or the other, since I think I'll be too impatient (workflow on a hardware sequencer vs daw). And when the useful function of the MC-707 is being a glorious rompler with sequencing, I'm not quite sure I want to pay 800. (Btw. the fact Roland doesn't offer a complementary patch editor and librarian is kinda greedy).

[@TUBEDIGGA]

@@LaymensLament I finish everything on my MPC One, check out my MPC DJ set I did in the record shop a couple of videos back on here, all of those tracks were created on the MPC One and MPCX in standalone mode. You can do everything in MPC

[@LaymensLament]

@@TUBEDIGGA Well you can but do you want to :D. I'm gonna check it in a bit, thanks!

[@TUBEDIGGA]

@@LaymensLament Do I want to? Yes of course, I love working with it, it's so easy and a pleasure to work with. Far better than pushing a mouse around.

[@grazstarr]

What happened to the 10 part series? :(

[@TUBEDIGGA]

I sold my 707 several months ago as it had some issues that weren't resolved in the last firmware update. I found I was only using it for simple loops rather than something I could work on full tracks.

[@grazstarr]

@@TUBEDIGGA yeah right, good to know. Mind if I ask what you ended up choosing to spend most of your time working with? Trying to select which main machine to use at the moment, would be great to get your perspective/knowledge on what you use. Cheers for your time!

[@TUBEDIGGA]

@@grazstarr I’ve been consistently working with my MPC, I also have Maschine Plus and the S2400,

[@playgroundofsound7683]

Ill never get a 707 however i do enjoy my mx1. When elektron drops a mixer its game over

[@7177YT]

Subscribed! (;

[@djangofett4879]

Ok, im starting to wrap my head around this scatter function. The reference manual does not explain it clearly. The owner's manual that comes with the actual MC-707 is worthless. 12 pages and almost half of it is table of contents and disclaimer legal junk.

[@kaitsu9608]

Mask on, fk it mask off Jokes aside, great video!

[@jhbo84]

plug plug plug away...smh

[@MrEvanTea]

How do you do this effect on an MPC or in Logic....?

[@TUBEDIGGA]

With the MPC you have the XY beat repeat and Air Stutter effects which would be the closest - however the 707 is a little more precise. The MPC timing is fine but isn't as accurate. Also you can't assign all the effects and the different time values and other parameters to the pads on the MPC, you'd have to use custom QLink sets ups (in Qlink project or program mode). The Akai Force can though, using the Macros feature.
