ROLAND SH-4d | PLUCK SYN BEATS Pattern / AL-DEMO SONG

video upload by Andro Lectric

"Small DEMO SONG with the SH-4d Synth

The Pattern "Syn Pluck Beats" is so fantastic.
I thought I'd just make a smart Song out of it,
without editing the Pattern.

Fading via REASON-DAW

You hear the direct AUDIO from the SH-4d.
Recording via USB directly with REASON.
Final little, smart Master with Wavelab.

Conclusion:
The Synth is fun straight away.
Kind of a reduced MC-707 - it's OK.
The Sounds can be edited more quickly directly.

Great Addition for AIRA-Link Fans... anyway.
Perfect for spontaneous jamming outside the Studio.

New 3rd Party Hidden Sysex Based ZEN-Core Editor-librarian for MC-101 and MC-707

video upload by Benedetto Schiavone

"ZEN-Core Sound Banks (222 tones) for all Roland Synthesizers, Piano, Groovebox, Wind-Instruments, Guitar Synth compatible with the ZEN-Core standard"

Available at: http://www.benis.it/cm/ZC_Editor/ben6...

Addtiional details in via Benedetto Schiavone:


"As is known, the two Roland grooveboxes do not officially support MIDI SysEX messages and there is no documentation relating to their implementation which is hidden

In reality, the MC-101/707 are able to receive and send such messages: they respond with a completely wrong addressing, with duplicate and incorrect data which however can be corrected and used by the software.

The editor-librarian, like the analogous versions for Fantom/0, AX-Edge and Jupiter-X/Xm, communicates in real-time and bidirectionally with the groovebox, using MIDI SysEx messages."

Bad Gear - Almost as GOOD as REBIRTH

video upload by AudioPilz

"Bad Gear - MC 707

Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-hated audio tools. Roland instruments are the pinnacle of music technology: tones so awesome that they are still force-fed to music enjoyers decades after their creation, timeless design and a history of pushing forward innovation exactly where it’s needed while preserving their great heritage.

Today we are going to talk about MC-707. This OG groovebox for the 2020s comes with the third-best display to ever grace a Roland machine, their second-best modern take on the classic sounds and THE best method to sell more cloud subscriptions."

Vanderson plays - Shamen "Indica" - cover on Roland MC-707

video upload by ॐ Vanderson ॐ

"Yesterday, Saturday evening, I reached for my favorite album by Shamen - Hempton Manor. One of the great songs on it, is of course "Indica". I decided to have some fun and create a cover of this track using only the Roland MC-707 (not for the first time, because many years ago on YT I posted a short recording using only the Roland MC-808).
This time I approached it in more detail. Of course, it was difficult to convey this characteristic atmosphere of the mid-90s. But something came out of it :)
The whole thing was recorded by ear - I used only one sample from the original (the characteristic click) that accompanies the recording from the very beginning."

Bad Gear - The Last Real MC

"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world's most hated audio tools. Today we are going to talk about the Roland MC-505 Groovebox. Is this late 90s all-in-one dance music solution, successor to the Roland MC-303, the last real MC or is it yet another rave music cheese machine?
