A MC-707-Boombap-Style-Video like your SP-404-Jams would be awesome.

I love my MC707s. My live setup is now 2xTR8S, 2XMC707 and an MX1, it's dreamy

Thanks so much for this video, I love my 707 but haven't gotten into the scene chaining yet. I didn't know it was so simple!
Hopefully they let us start placing scenes out of order, I like making different song structures. For now, I guess one could assign the same scenes across multiple banks if they want to repeat a part of the song

[tofuprius]

So stoked about the new studio space! Congrats again! 🥳

[mattspazmatic]

I don't know much about the high end grooveboxes but I love my MC 707.

[SpaceFaceFPV]

Wow I totally missed this update! Being able to chain scenes is a total GAME CHANGER For me! I am going to update it asap tomorrow and get into this! I'm hoping to get my first turntable soon and was going to bust the 707 to do some sampling. Too bad about the loop time but I can work around that with my other gear.

Really great video buddy, you're really thorough and clear spoken! Keep up the great work 😃

Love the song you created on this box Jade.

Cheers mate - reacquainting myself with this as it's now my master clock & the Akai Key 61 (which has song mode!) is slaved in along with the Deluge, Akai Pro Force & Korg Electribe. Once I get the Jupiter XM this will be part of my live set up - need a smaller live rig yet without heavy synthesizers. All in the studio running the Blofeld, JV 1010 & June DI but only need a couple of desktop synthesizers with me. Apparently there was a MIDI bug which they have fixed with the MC 707 going out with MSB LSB PC# but 1.81 fixes that - will use the MC 303 one day with it. Thanks again - thought this was gonna take a while as on occasion menu diving is a challenge but each update does make it easier! Dave, from South Australia!

Really liked your demo tune, Jade. Nice melody, sound design and arrangement. It felt like you bonded with this groovebox.

[kiickinballistics]

What an excellent demo. Great tune and equally great walkthrough of your workflow.

[deemarr]

Roland please give option to stream from card.but definitely looking to get this ...still have my 2 mc 303's from 96😁

[a.d.]

Ok I’m new to grooveboxes and I have a stupid question. So I’ve seen that you can program the clips to repeat x amount of times and then play into another clip and then come back again, so what is the point of saving them to a scene? What am I missing?

[Elkesar]

Hey! Really glad that you have this device! For my little basement studio it is too big so I will sometimes grab MC 101. But really looking forward to hear some of you super cool composition on it! Take care!

[Old_Man_Jay]

Watched a few of your videos in the past but you can now consider me a subscriber! I’m so jelly you got the 707! Now you need to do lots of video jams with it! Do it! 😄

[geecen]

Nice one jade. Would’ve good to see a deep dive sound design video- Roland rompler architecture can be taken in some pretty interesting directions with skill!

[damne]

Hello! I need my DrumBrute Impact and a pair of speakers go with Scarlett 4i4. Next week a mc-707 will come 😊 Will you telling me I have a cables please? Thank you!

Hi. The 1 minute sample time in the looper track is too little, but in fw 1.7+ you can render a the content of a looper track to wav, and import it in a drum track or tone track, where you have 6 minutes stereo (or 12 in mono, but the looper track export is in stereo) sample time. Is not a lot, but is better, and I was sure that the MC-707 can sample directly to drum/tone tracks (the MC-101 can only sample via USB to the looper track). Let's hope that Roland can somehow unify that memory into a 7min pool for looper and samples, or even better, allow the looper to stream from the SD card.

Hello Jade! Can i move a one clip without copy/paste function, for example i rec some pharse and i need a move it in clip matrix, thanks!

[mixx-mastersinternat.djservice]

Hey hi Jade, thanks for video! I want to create a live act by chaining scenes. For example scene 1-8 are 1 Song, 9-16 are the second Song and so on.. In total there should be 16 songs. Do you know how to program that?

[tybaker]

Since you have the sp 404 can you tell me if the 90 FX on the 707 are the same or different than what’s on the 404?
