Quality electro! Seems an ideal single box for it. Ya got the whole Roland family inside.What kind of features do you wish it had for a more seamless live performance. A transition looper? I use Octatrack with various other gear and like the ability to move in and out of tunes seamlessly thanks to its looping capabilities, but the appeal of a single box like the MC-707 is real!
Hi Adam, the hardest thing I have to deal with in the 707 model is polyphony and voice stealing when switching between tracks. If you are trying to mix two tracks with a lot of voices in them voicestealing is a nightmare. The workaround Im thinking of is to sample my pads to save voices. Other than that the sound and potential of the synth engine is very good also the effects are great. Writing songs with it is very fast.
I've made my tracks in track mode. Now I'm trying to switch them to clip mode and it either changes one, some or all the clips to an init tone. There's no rhyme or reason to it. I can't predict how many it will change. I'm trying to launch rows of clips from other projects while the sequencer is running, to build bigger live sets. Obviously clips mode is neccessary. Did you have the initial tone problem? Thanks for the great set and hopefully advice!
Great set!! Thanks for the video! Are you using some looper tracks? I don't know how to play differents sounds in each canal. Do you know if it's possible?
Wow, that sounds impressive! Considering a 707 for my next purchase and I love to see / hear what other (real) users make with it. How do you like it so far? PS, I subbed to your channel :)
You set the sound source to clip and have multiples songs in one project. You can have 16 "Scenes" which are essentially 8 different clips that play at the same time.
Honest question, how much of your tunes are prepared in advance ? Is the performance about launching the proper elements at the right time ? Could you improvise a live set with this ? I'm new to it (play instruments already) and would like to get into it.
From the looks of the screen he has a bank of clips for each track in the set. there's lot of tweaking and modification of those clips with live scatter effects, filters.
You can load different patches/drum kits in the 8x16 clip matrix arrange. Its easy: SHIFT+SEL and the Track Preference menu appears. In general tab, Select CLIP as track source (TRACK is selected by default). Now you can select with SHIFT+SOUND any patch/kit to any clip.
Great stuff.
11:55 this machine has some beautiful sounding pads. this is absolutely amazing ...
Been thinking about picking one of these up. I think you have me sold! It’s an Electro factory! 😎
Just got one of these recently. you literally make the exact type of music ive been trying to make. Great set!
Why only try and not just make it?
Price of this machine went up since this recording🎉
great sound, good work :-)!!
I like the minimalistic approach...fantastic tracks!
Amazing set!! Makes me want one too...
WoW good job !
Nice set. Inspiring stuff. Just got mine yesterday.
Sounds fantástic. Gaylo follen :))))
Nice work!
Similar to drexcyia. Detroit Techno

Nice!!
Todo es muy bueno, pero El tema del minuto 6 es una pasada tio, me encanta los pads la vocal, Electrazo 🙌
www.discogs.com/release/15867-The-Advent-New-Beginnings este disco para mi siempre será de lo mejor que se hizo en este estilo.
@@GeyloFollen ostia, pues no conocía ese!! Y mira que tengo cosas de The Advent, una pasada! Gracias
AquaZone!
I love your style bro from the beginning. Is it easy/fun to produce on the 707? I have had the tr8s and thats fun and easy to use
with the random patch function you will get new sounds in seconds, no need to dive in menus if you dont want to.

Is 1.5 hours roughly the longest set you can make with a single project? I'm looking into one, and need to be able to perform for 1-2 hours
Do you have a answer? How to perform long sets with limited amounts of clip?
Fuckin awesome. Electro funky boogaloo.
Can I ask if these are using the onboard patches or you made your own?
Hi, what do you think about AKAI FORCE? With that machine, you can do more and more....
Hey you!
Great set!! Thanks for the video!
Are you using some looper tracks? I don't know how to play differents sounds in each canal. Do you know if it's possible?
in the channel/track setting you have to change the sound from track to clip (first row) ;)
Wow, that sounds impressive!
Considering a 707 for my next purchase and I love to see / hear what other (real) users make with it.
How do you like it so far?
PS, I subbed to your channel :)
Endless possibilities with the sampler/synth engine plus a huge waveform collection. I only miss an external editor.
@@GeyloFollen Thanks for the reply.
Hope to see some more 707 work (possibly also workflow)
Now just need savings for the purchase :)
Good
Nice job bud
People keep saying you can't load projects while a project is playing. Is this a problem for you? What's the work around?
You set the sound source to clip and have multiples songs in one project. You can have 16 "Scenes" which are essentially 8 different clips that play at the same time.
hey, can you create a download for your project?
I dont have the MC707 anymore.
@@GeyloFollen ok, very unfortunate
hi really liked ur set. how long did u prepare for it? round about?
Composing a track with the MC707 is super fast. In minutes you can have a solid groove running. They know how to make grooveboxes since mid 90´s
It is the internal sounds or your samples. Great work , it's sound
like "the haker"
Both, sampling with the 707 is great.
what's the bass sound on track 6? sounds awesome but can't seem to find the same on mine
All these sounds are probably custom made :)
sick, how would you compare this to the 303? undecided which one i should get
hard to tell, you can get the 303 model for pocket money nowadays, I love both.
This is surely a joke?
@@halcyondaystunes Behringer TB3 or Roland tb-03. Monophonic synth with sequencer. Can't really compare to MC-707.
Mc303
I have a 303, so great question. I've been in-between getting the 307 and the 707 next. Mainly interested in 90s dance & rave sounds
would like to ask you how difficult it is to program this machine, for someone who has no experience. thank you
I would try the smallest one first, the MC101 model.
I'll sell my rytm for that!
What do you think guys?
I am electro fan :)
With the auto patch function you´ll make patches in seconds. Very easy to use and sounds awesome.
@@GeyloFollen thank you for the fast reply :)
I believe could be a killer combo whit analog four.. great stuff bro really

One question...
Can you load different samples / instrument states per cell?
You can load different patches/drum kits in the 8x16 clip matrix arrange. Its easy: SHIFT+SEL and the Track Preference menu appears. In general tab, Select CLIP as track source (TRACK is selected by default).
Now you can select with SHIFT+SOUND any patch/kit to any clip.
