Roland PMA-5 demo


YouTube via Enducre
"The latest addition to my studio, and what a fun gadget it is! Sorry the visual quality isn't fabulous, the webcam had a hard time focusing on the 4" screen. There's also a "hum" that comes and goes - I really need a new mixer :-/ There's a bunch of features I didn't have time to mention - there's an 8-track mixer where you can set the levels of each of the parts, their pan position, and their sends to the two effects busses. There's inbuilt chorus/flanger and reverb/delay. You can mute channels, so you can drop parts in/out as needed. And there's probably more features I haven't discovered yet :) I was going to record the inbuilt demo songs, but I'm not sure of the copyright implications of that, so I won't. However, they're every bit as cheesy as you'd expect demo songs to be! And yes, I know I said 808/809 drums, instead of 808/909 drums - I was rushing to get everything into 10 minutes, give me a break!"
