"The Roland MKS-7 is an underrated machine. It is essentially a multi-timbral rackmount Juno 106 plus the sounds from the TR-707 drum machine. It's much more than that though: all 4 parts (melody, bass, chord, rhythm) are available at once on separate audio/MIDI channels, making the MKS-7 capable of full musical compositions.
The MKS-7 Super Quartet is a multitimbral synth module with dedicated sections. The Melody section: 2 voice polyphony, 100 presets; Chord section: 4 voice polyphony, 100 presets; Bass section: monophonic, 20 presets; Rhythm section: 11 PCM sounds. The sound and architecture of the Melody, Chord and Bass sections are the same as the Juno 106synthesizer. The Rhythm section offers up the drum sounds borrowed from the TR-707.
The beauty of using this sound module is that all 4 sections are available at once. Drums, bass, leads and pads can all play independent parts and patches together making this a very nice all-in one vintage Roland tone module. Just like the Juno 106, the MKS-7 is also controllable via MIDI and System Exclusive messages for editing. Most Juno 106 editors will work for the MKS-7 too."
