I’m super with you on it being inexcusable disregard when they don’t bother to inform you of the button combinations - or not allowing u to erase the medieval sounds which I find hilarious as a joke / sales gimmick but shouldn’t impede music making

Early Dead Can Dance in a box

Nice work 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I got into electronic music in a similar way. My guitar fretting arm had some bad tendinitis for a long stretch. I got a little worried I couldn't play anymore, so I first got a Roland MC-707 and then a Blackbox (recently added an MV-1 Verselab). Since then, my arm healed a bit, but I've had a blast with making clips and layered parts with beats, bass lines, synth layers, and some guitar mixed in. I wanted the Verselab for easier laying down of vocals. Although I like finishing in a DAW, I'm demotivated to create in one. For guitar, the Blackbox is also a great looper using either a MIDI pedal (or in my case a Helix) and the MIDI pad record settings. It can also launch backing tracks from a pedal too, which is cool. I have an iPad and several fun apps (Drambo, AUM, Loopy Pro, Patterning 3, etc). However, as powerful as those are, sometimes I create easier in a simpler hardware ecosystem. Thus, stuff like the Blackbox or the Roland grooveboxes really helps me to create. Having some limitations cause me to stretch myself creatively. Cool that you are getting into using it. Have fun exploring.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who just erases everything and starts from scratch vs diagnosing the root cause of a (huh?) :)

could you share your added sound files? I want to import some drum sounds which I downloaded from KO ii, but it listens different than the laptop.

Is the speaker on your medieval also crackling sometimes when notes are deeper?

Awesome

Hey, can you please tell me the material of the product, is it plastic or metal?

Don’t you have to edit the samples to be “ready” to chop into 1/3 or 1/4. A little long winded for me. Need to have poly mode on for same hits on a pad.

But the Arturia Audiofuse Rev 2 doesn’t record. It’s just an interface

Excellent

Kudos for showing the whole process ++ the sweet jam. Cheers 🌿

🔥🔥🔥

Badass 🔥

Very nice jam, you rocked that Roland chorus 40. Thanks for giving me some inspiration to getting back to just having fun jamming. 🎸

This thing should have been an iPad app at BEST 🤣 looks like a cash grab to me.

Thanks for the count in tip!

I just got my P6 about two weeks ago and have been looking for some good tutorials to get me through the learning curve. Your video was one of the best for this simple direct to the point and very helpful. As a result, I hit like and subscribed and I am looking forward to more videos on the P6. Take care, brother.

too many adverts stopping me enjoying the video..unskippable and long.

Please do post the music you have recorded 😊

This little box is excellent for guitar and bass players for creating music .... I have the Roland sp404sx and I just couldnt gel with it. If roland could make this unit with larger storage / sample time ... an updated screen and a song mode , it would be perfect . I really like the layout of the p-6

Honestly ko2 in my opinion. You should’ve stuck with it. I finally synced my ko2 and medieval with MPC and my productions have got way better. Also I have some pedals linked up in the chain.

Thanks for these useful videos. The P-6 discovery journey is so much fun. And YES I’m down for a video with the Tascam !

I also have the EP 133 and it's a blast

Thanks for all these good videos. Getting me excited to have my p6!

That looks like a lot of fun. Agreed on the HX Stomp sounding great!

Roland manual is garbage

Great job man way to work with the community great channel!!

Please please show us how you use the sample utility! Thanks!

Wow what a little beast. I will buy it as well ❤

Cant wait to grab one

14:43 question for everyone : suppose I don't want to live record the snare (which is the second chop) but enter it using the step sequencer (meaning you need to exit the KYBD mode). Is they a way to do this ? It will always trigger the first chop, from what I can see. The workaround I use is to enter a step, then while holding it, you can turn the knob to select another note (hence, another chop). But if anyone has a better way...

16:25 did you put your pad into "POLY" mode ? (shift + GATE) Otherwise, that might be the reason why you can't trigger your kicks and hats at the same time. By default it's in monophonic mode and any note will cut the previous one. Thanks for the video. By the way, the titles in the manual's summary are clickable and will directly scroll to the right page.

Sounds badass 🔥

I was going to go with the Maschine Plus but this video makes me want to get the MPC One Plus now. Do you know if that MPC came with the effects for your vocals or did you have to get those later?

Nice.... especially when guitar enters

I think I've read the manual about four times now. so if you wind up with any questions about how to do this or that just tag me with a question I'll probably be able to answer it.

the other thing that's crazy about the manual is that each line in the instructions is kind of spoken in a backwards manner. it's so weird. they tell you at the end of the sentence what button needs to be held down after they've already told you a different button to press 😅

when I first started messing around with this thing I encountered a lot of frustrations, but the more I play around with it, my ideas of how the workflow should go start to conform to how the machines process is, and it has actually triggered some interesting different ways of looking at how to put together a piece of music on this gear.

so far I think my favorite mfx effect is the vinyl one.

you inspired me to sit down and compose part of a piece of music this evening which I posted on TH-cam. I used to come home and write music every single night, but due to technology marching forward and obsoletin my computer and my software I haven't felt much like writing. but playing around with these musical toys his sparked some interest again. thank you

I think on this particular track part of the reason you may have been experiencing difficulties with quantization is because I think the real tempo is closer to 73.5 BPM. I think since you were writing on double time at 145 your 16th notes are more like 32 notes

enjoying watching this! Got me riled up to mess with music 🎶🎶 tonight! I think keeping all the kicks on one pad the snares on the next the hats on the next probably solves the polyphony problem. the other problem that solves is if you want it put reverb on anything or pan anything or just levels on something it allows you to address them individually. if you have your four favorite kick sounds on pad one in Bank a you're not likely to ever trigger multiple of them simultaneously on the same note in the same track. same goes for the snare and the hats etcetera

This feature was exactly why I grabbed this p6. Explicitly for drums. I got full Broadway kits to put in...

Good stuff man it's not an easy unit to master.

I really enjoy watching these videos withouts edits , I'm learning so much watching them .

Awesome
