Always a pleasure. Good stuff.

[WireBurnerEnt]

[devonrector5]

@djkmann Im from canada and ive been looking in on buying one of these thing for a bout a week. but i was wonderin what website i could buy one of these off because i dont think io can buy one at my local music stop. any advise ?

[gphenomzabeast]

@devonrector5 Hey bro if you are still looking Craigslist is where I suggest checking out. There are deals on there on MVs from time to time. Peace.

[ruslanio]

Woahh that sounded hard as hell.

[kaybronson100]

screwball!

[jay1336561987]

hey i was wondering if you could help me out so i can make a beat like so i can keep adding instruments on the roland mv 8800 after i made like the claps snares and stuff and like add brass strings synths etc i dont have the roland mv 8800 yet but will be getting it asap also like the video thanks jay

[mesaoneCCK]

Sorry for the double comment but I would like to suggest you move either the turntable or the speaker that's next to it. The needle can pick up what the speaker throws out. Try putting the cover on and tapping it, you will see what I mean

[mesaoneCCK]

Takes me bout an hour to crank out a beat... Most of that time is spent sample digging and messing with soft-synth parameterss. But after that it takes me a week or 2 of editing and re-doing stuff to get it the way I want it. I can spend a 4-hour chunk of time just doing automation. So take your time! It is a process, not a competition.

[gwappcitygangstas]

can u show me how 2 realy workm the mv

[djcas69]

Nice!

[FelixB1234]

Do you prefer the mv- 8800 or the mpc 1000?

[djkmann]

@FelixB1234 I prefer the MV-8800. The MPC is solid as well, but the MV fits my workflow. I do alot of chopping and I can chop faster on the MV. I also use a lot of the effects on the MV.

[kaybronson100]

@djkmann i agree, the mv has excellent workflow value and is probably the best for chopping quickly and moving throught the whole beat process....but the mpc kills it in timing, punchiness, sound, and overall sequencing. i just traded my mv 8800 for an mpc 4000. the 4000 is what i thought my 2000xl was supposed to be. that shit knocks foreal.

[djkmann]

@Bittle408

You don't need the monitor. It's just a bonus.

[aureliopro]

good shit sir check me out i got the mv too

[robcaseyire]

Sounds good, keep it up

[R0cA]

iight cool. i was plaining somethin similar but ima use fruity loops as sound module and maybe a motif es or xs

[R0cA]

what kind of set-up do you have i see a mv but what else do you have hook any racks or motif?

[djkmann]

I have a Micor Korg, a laptop with Reason 4 on it that I use mainly as a sound module and I have an MPC 1000

[diggler187]

arrgh F I R E

good track

you look like you fall to sleep

but

but the result is a banger

[djkmann]

Hahahaha...I did look a little tired

[RICHboyMONTANA]

How do u speed up a sample ounce it"s loaded in the MV

[djkmann]

Hit the pad you want to speed up, then hit the quick edit button and use tune to change the sample speed.

[Magikano]

the time put in really pays off. anyone can hammer out a mediocre beat in a couple hours, this is fire though

[DDeDokter]

Nice job with changing the pitch with the strings! Inspiring as always haha

PS: I was wondering if you might be interested in doing a track together.. Idk if it will work because of the Time Zone differences or w/e but I hope we can at least try :)

[djkmann]

Ya sure, we can  do a track together...Just email me and we can organize something.

[RICHboyMONTANA]

how do I midi my keyboard to my mv so I can record what I'm playing on the keyboard directly into the mv

[MV8Killa]

just plug the midi out of keyboard/controller to in of mv. just make sure you give the device a number a-1 etc:

[aureliopro]

super easy send me your email and i can walk you through it

[skyproductionz]

Really dope.

[RdgMusic]

Whats good son?

Sounds crazy man, i fairly new on this 'sampling' ish so its always inspiring to see other good producers at work. keep it up son, i subscribed

[djkmann]

Thanks. If you have any questions after you start sampling, let me know. Maybe I can assist.

[RdgMusic]

Thanks, good to know

[djkmann]

Ya the strings are a little spooky, they were a last min thing becasue the beat sounded so plain and I wanted to fill it up a bit.

Thanks for the comment.

[Sinosure]

Nice joint! Puttin' it down on the MV lovely! Looks like you're getting a hold on the basics pretty quickly on it. Some peeps say the curve is a little steep for them on the MV. Thing is though, it's gaining more popularity! I was pricing it the other day & I see where the MPC 5k is the same price.

Both right at $2000. So the MV is still holding its value for a new purchase. Again, stay up & keep us posted! * * * * *'s!

[djkmann]

If you have experience with making beats you should be able to pick up on the MV fairly quickly...If this is your first crack at beat making then it will take a min to learn...Holla at me when you get your gear together so that I can peep your work...Oh btw I looked at the mpc 5000 and I think its a sick piece of equip too.

[Sinosure]

I will bruh, no doubt!

[SoundsAndGear]

dope track man, looks like you getting into that mv pretty deep yo, keep it up

[djkmann]

Ya man, I've put in some work on this thing...I have a good idea on how to use it now.

Thanks for watching !

[SoundsAndGear]

No doubt homie, keep bangin that joint yo lol.

[m21mlv]

Nice beat, that first sample is fire, as always 5*
