- Welcome to my in-depth tutorial on the Roland MC-707, focusing on the advanced technique of wave scanning using the mod matrix.
In this video, we'll guide you through the process of wave scanning, a powerful method for creating evolving textures and tones, by skillfully manipulating the MC-707's modulation matrix.
Whether you're a seasoned producer or new to the world of grooveboxes, this tutorial will unlock new creative possibilities, showing you step-by-step how to navigate the interface and assign modulation sources and destinations.
Get ready to elevate your sound design skills and add unique, dynamic layers to your music with the @rolandglobal MC-707.
Here is the link to download the 2 clips mentioned in the video. I also added the 2 Tones that were demonstrated in the video as clips as well.
www.dropbox.co...
Put these clip files in the TONE folder inside of the CLIP folder found in the GROOVEBOX folder of your SD card. If there isn't a Clip or Tone folder present on the SD Card, Create a CLIP folder in the GROOVEBOX folder. Then inside the CLIP folder, create a TONE folder. This is where the Tone clips will be held. If you are sharing clips of Drum Tracks, be sure to make a DRUM folder in the CLIP folder. If you are unsure of this procedure, check out the beginning of the video linked below.
They contain Init Tones with the partials split between velocity ranges. The first has no fade between ranges, creating abrupt changes when cycling through the partials. the second file has fade applied to the ranges, creating smoother transitions between partials.
Use these clips on the 101 or 707 by simply loading the clip to an empty slot on a tone track. Then, activate and choose a waveform for each oscillator in the Shift+Sound edit menu.
Partial velocity ranges are as follows:
PMT 1: 1-31
PMT 2: 32-63
PMT 3: 64-95
PMT 4: 96-127

I been missing your MC707 tutorials, you’re great with these!
More to come!
Agreed!
Agreed!
Drone magic. Looks great for ambient. This box goes so deep.
It does!
I bet this method could make some cool drone tones with movement. Will have to play with it. Thanks!
That’s what inspired me to look for this feature! I would love to hear your results!
NOW THIS IS THE GEEKY GOODNESS WE HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR JEDI😁😁😁😁 YESSSS
It’s nice to know the geeky goodness is being enjoyed! ❤
@@UnitE808 😉🙌
Glad you're back at it CS!!!❤❤❤❤
Me too!!
This is wild. Great job.
Thank you! Cheers!

I've only had it since launch 😂
tHANK YOU !
You're welcome!

Glad to help!
Very advanced, nice work!
Thanks!
Superb tutorial
Thanks a lot 😊
Thank you! I knew there had to be away to do this! I just couldn't figure out how
Glad I could help!
Thanks so much, downloaded some wavetables and used the offset in each partial and cycled over that and got some cool results..
I love it! Great to hear others are getting results!
Thank you Unit E
You're welcome
❤❤❤
Another excellent tutorial.thx.
My pleasure!
👌top stuff m8
Epic trick 🤯 thanks!!
Dope!
Another great tutorial.thx.Question do you have any idea when there will be another uodate coming out?
I am not given that information, so I can’t say what’s on the horizon.
Ok thank you
♥♥♪♦NICE
You're back, awesome. New mic too?
Using a headset mic.
Great vid! Is there a way to scan or sweep through the same way on a single drum pad? And assign it to a knob so you can manually sweep through the 4 drums or samples you put in?
I think it should work. I can try today and report back.
@@UnitE808 ok great thanks! There’s so much cool stuff you could do with it also on a drum pad!
@@SolflareCoUk I agree. I love the random playback of the 4 waves on a drum pad.
@@SolflareCoUk So I tried to do this with a drum track. It’s not possible. There is no mod matrix to configure on a drum track
@@UnitE808 Thanks for trying! Yes I’d actually had a go myself and couldn’t make it work, but was hoping you might be able to. It’s such a shame as there’s so much that could be done with that!
I’ve watched a few times, and I am not catching how you’ve achieved the partials fading as you scan the waves.
You must go into the area where you separate the partials into velocity ranges. There is a fade option for lower and upper. Make those values a few numbers higher and lower than the range numbers
Excellent, thank you!
*promosm* 😆
why does the second line of pads go from left to right, regularly following in order from 'c' to 'g' and then again from 'a' to 'c'?
It’s a one octave keyboard. The notes CDEFGABC are the bottom row. The top row are the sharps/flats.
