I don't even own an MV. I just love tear-down videos. One thing I can tell everyone is, TAKE PICTURES of EVERYTHING, so you know how it all goes back together and in what orientation everything plugs back in. I replaced the pads on my MC-909 and the pics were very helpful. Great job keeping the old gear alive!
little air compressor can and keep it clean always did the trick for me.. ( also, never leave your sliders all the way down, keep it at equal.. and keep the air can ready) the Tear Down was Ultra awesome to watch, plus you kind of see what this machine is made of!!!
Good tutorial. My tap tempo button broke recently so I’m faced with the task of getting under the hood to fix it. I’m going to use this video as my reference. Sounds like your style of music in the background. Nice mellow beat.
I replaced these faders with rotary.The video is great!I also loved how easy it was to change the faders on pioneer DJ mixing consoles.It is a pity that this is not done so quickly on MV, you have to disassemble everything. and there you always take off a small strip of the case and change it
Thanks a lot! Indeed the disassembly is quite impressie but doable. Changing faders on Pioneer consoles is indeed much easier. More focussed on changing.

yeah i have had to do extensive work on an 8000 because of water damage. got everything back to full life except for the pad sensor board.... which i got from roland for super cheap. they shipped me out a brand new board. i was thinking of replacing those faders too, i have done the same on other equipment... i just haven't been motivated because i haven't really been in the MV zone for quite a long time now.
Wow....water damage is serious damage. Great that you've received a new board. I can imagine your feeling about being motivated. If the urge is not there, then don't start. Good luck anyway!
@@theMIDImaniac yes, i stripped down the entire machine and washed every board in the bath tub with alcohol, then i rinsed it off with distilled water and let it dry. it worked perfectly. I made a lot on the MV however i came to that machine from the MPC... while they may not be as powerful, they are quicker machines and when you don't need the very in depth unique MV features it can make life a bit easier.
Did you only replace the ones that jumped. Also mine my jog wheel if I jog down and go past something I want to load by five items and turn the jog the other way it moves the highlight up two times then continues to go down Evan tho I’m jogging up? That 100% the jog wheel mechanism
My sliders jump and also a bunch of other buttons randomly actvate on their on. Mostly when Im in song sequence or if I leave it powered on for an extended amount of time. Im scared to take mine apart. Does anyone still service these?
The fu**in dab of solder hahaha :D Good job mate (i would have replaced them all to be honest) while you are in there, It is a long way to be able to pull the board out in the MV. Cheers
Hahaha! That dab...man...could hardly see it with bare eyes. I waited with the other ones because they work fine. I know now how to do the replacement ;)
Wow! great work Roger...but that’s an awful lot of deconstruction! My MV sliders seem ok but definitely might need this tutorial one day so thanks. ( that said my vs 2480 has some bad sliders don’t suppose youve ever come across replacements for them? Whenever ive searched it seems they were a unique Roland part & nothing available as replacement ?)....keep up the great work.
Hey Vince! Sorry to read about the bad sliders on your 2480. I haven't seen replacement either. Better to look out for junk/repair/2nd cheap. I see those 2480's sometimes for 400€ or a 2400 for 250€. But still serious money. It was really fun to do this repair. Also scary but it went fine :D
Let me honest with you :D NONE! I all those years of tearing down units I've learned to save the screws separately. Also I know now more the difference between those small screws. They look all the same but in the end they're a bit different and that helps a lot. But I do have a lot of spare screws from other projects hahaha
Hahaha, opening is just removing some screws but I understand that it takes some guts to go further. Changed my pants multiple times hahaha. How to keep the dust away? I swear on compressed air. A cloth dipped in 96% alcohol and the air is a golden couple. Hope this helps!

Good advice, regarding the pictures.
That's why I did this video too. To have it all documented.
Thanks for the thumbs up!

Genius Tutorial

I wouldnt Even bother with the tap tempo button, never use it and you can set tempo in different ways without it
Brilliant video. Expertly done! Thanks for supporting MV8000/8800 🙏
And thank you for your endless support! The MV is the heart of my setup. Doing everything to keep it in shape.

Show us your rotary version please.
@@WASKMUSIC Okay, I'll take some photos and send them as a video here. Everything has been working stably and reliably for over 5 years

@@user-pm9jh3ge5q holy crap that's amazing... looks good I like rotary knobs. How are they mounted inside? Just standard pots and values?
Great

Thanks, my friend!!
Excellent .
Many thanks!
Happy to still have my MV up and running!

It boots to test mode and says 000000 or just says roland mv8800 production studio when i turn it onb

Looks like it will be a challenge to fix the Enter button
Well, the ENTER button is a loose button and can be replaced 'easily' but yeah...you have to open it completely.
But it is doable!

i have been using the ASSIGNABLE SLIDER to turn off sliders and just use mixer with curser buttons is that ok for now ?
That’s ok!
When assignable sliders button is unlit, the sliders can be used for the mixer too.
@@theMIDImaniac i have been using it to stop jumping sliders i have a couple
@@SiriusBlack-wh6uh Yeah...those jumping sliders...
A lot of work Roger, tell me how many screws did you have left over when it was all assembled? ;-)
Let me honest with you :D
NONE!
I all those years of tearing down units I've learned to save the screws separately.
Also I know now more the difference between those small screws. They look all the same but in the end they're a bit different and that helps a lot.
But I do have a lot of spare screws from other projects hahaha
@@theMIDImaniac Fair enough :-)
Wao looks eze but, is not... Good job! Ain't hav the balls to open mine.. , any suggestions on how to keep the dust away from the knobs? Salute.
