Making a lofi hip hop beat on the Roland MV-8000

- How's it going everybody, I hope all of you are doing well. As most of you know, making lofi hip-hop is one of my favorite things to do. Obviously I still have a lot to learn and a lot of progress to make but never the less its really a fun genre to make. So in todays video, I focus on making a lofi hip hop beat on the Roland MV 8000. Now who would have thought that this machine as clean and feature heavy like the Roland MV-8000 would be great at making lofi hip hop. It really let's you groove and best of all it has a done effects and filters/processors that give you the capabilities to experiment with the overall texture of sounds. Speaking of effects, an effect I was unaware of was the vinyl sim. On the Roland MV 8000 its called something different, but the idea is very similar to the Roland SP 404SX. Although I will say that sonically it sounds better, the noise sounds more natural. The cut off takes just the right amount of frequencies without really losing the overall melody and groove of the sound. The Wow/Flux flutter effect is not too exaggerated and really compliments the sounds you are using. My biggest complaint would probably be that you can't use one effect at a time but other than that the effects on here are amazing. So in the process of adding all the effects and tweaking the parameters, I ended up bouncing the audio to a cassette tape, just because. So I hope you guys enjoy the video! Let me know what you guys think and thank you guys so much for watching!

This came out dope!! The MV is a beast!! I love that old Realistic tape deck!! Nice vid bruh!! Lofi in full effect!!
You heard of that brand? I was very impressed when I got it, its very clean for a tape deck.
@@chrisgalactic that's the old school Radio Shack brand sir
Man that sample is crazy especially the vocal part! Great video as always man!
Thanks bro appreciate that!!!
Cool Beats
You're good at this, you're on your way!
Thanks bro much love means a lot!
Very nice
Thanks bro I appreciate it!!
Phonograph is a slept on FX as well as some others.
So slept on never even knew it existed!
Great to see a renewed interest in the beloved MV. It was always a misunderstood machine by most. But if you take time to learn its abilities, you’d swear by it. She’ll take any sounds you feed her, and cook them up like a well made batch of gumbo. Keep up the dope vids. Peace...Netm8kr
Much love thank you!!! Yeah man so far I'm having an amazing time with the MV thank you for your comment
Dope session
Thanks yo!!!
great video, thoroughly enjoyed 👟
Appreciate it bro I'm happy you dig it!!
best machine
Yes sir!!! One of the best ever made hands down
This dudes the best I’m bout to get a mv1 verselab coming out I think
You can resample too use multiple effects
Resampling is underated on every sampler tbh it's crazy how creative you can get with resampling
A+
How a total production studio like the mv can be labeled as lo fi ? This beast is a keeper.
Slept on my dude the capabilities of this machine are a amazing
Diggin it.
Thanks bro appreciate it
Dope
I appreciate you! Thank you!!
how do you get to the vinyl sim though? i can only find chorus, reverb and delay when i go to the effect section... i have the machine for so long but i could never understand how to get all those effects. on the 404 you literally hold the button and scroll the knob. any help would be greatly appreciated.
Awesome vid and the track is major! 💨💨💨 could I ask what stand you have for the mv8000?
Its a regular piano stand lol I got mines on Amazon amzn.to/2Cl0cUV
I used to want a MV-8000 when they first came onto the scene. Ended up getting another MPC but these always fascinated me. Wonder whatever happened and why they never kept the line going. This beat is fire though BTW
Thats funny, yesterday on The Day dream sounds live stream we were talking about the MV. The MV is a super underrated machine for the price. It's really capable of some really amazing stuff.
You can get the same swing on the MV, I have a MPC ONE too, I've verified the swing, joint swing like SpiderMan😀😀😀
@@MrScrooge1980 😂😂
second one is dope af
Thanks brooooo!!
This beat is rich,more than the typical lo-fi out there.
But since you get to use this machine quite a lot,would you suggest it for a beginner.I just got into production messing with DAWs and a Yamaha SU-10,was thinking upgrading to sp404,but lately i am really thinking to move on mv 8000 or mv 8800(if i could get it at 600€).I was thinking using it as a workstation with screen and mouse.
Appreciate it bro! Yeah you wouldn't hate it, these big old machines are meant to be used in that way as the center of your home setup. It's a great way to work, and honestly the effects alone are enough to make you love this machine.
Dope beat brah. Ya the phonograph MFX is similar to vinyl sim. I’ve been running my soft synth melodies through it to give that dark trippy trap feel the kids love. There is a “cassette” preset in the mastering suite that will give you that tape warmth if you don’t want to run your beat through an actual tape. There is even an parameter that controls how much hiss you hear. I’ve had my mv8800 since 07’ and just started getting into what the mastering section is capable of. I’ve been sleeping on that shit to say the least. You can get shit cracking in there. It’s basically like the Roland VS series which was the protools of the 90s. I grabbed SX about a month ago and was disappointed with the vinyl sim. Doesn’t hold a candle to the 303 and I’ve heard the OG 404 has a pretty good vinyl sim as well
Thanks man! Yeah that's something that I've seen in the mastering tab but never really experimented with it yet. Still so much to dive into and to learn, can't wait to dive deeper.
Good Job...I use the Filters and EQ.
The filters and eq are really really good!!!
🔥🔥🔥 beat man. Love it. Hey I just got a MPC Live. Do you know if there’s a vinyl sim on that?
As far as I know their isn't but get creative vinyl sim is just white noise with some clicks and pops. I'm sure it would be to difficult to re create that. The flutter effect is like a chorus type of modulation effect that you can simulate with a plug in.
No there's not fam
The other version of lofi is really just a jazzy sound with hiphop drums (nothing new) but.... once again adding in these effect that sound like static or rain.
Like the sound, but the drums are quite stiff. I hear that on more MV beats. Is this a lack of swing on this sampler?
The PPQ on the MV is very different and is a big complaint on this machine. Believe it or Quantize was off, so the way the machine setups the grid to its sequencer is different. I think you have to find a pocket with it, like any sampler.
@@chrisgalactic and when you chop some of the drums with a little more room in front?
Does it have any sounds in it already such as drums, bass,synth an such or do u have to upload them
It does have a built in bass synth it's a sampler so you place sounds in it but if I remember correctly when they first came out it did come with some sounds but these things came out years ago so if you purchase one it might not come with the original sounds
Download the original MV8000 sounds by typing Roland MV8000 into your search engine which brings you to the Roland website then you can download the sounds that were available for the MV.
Idk how many times I can say this. Lofi is a sound wuality that can be achieved in various ways from simply holding a Mic next to a speaker or various distances with the speaker loud or catching whatever the surrounding is to fooling around with effects or changing but rates. U can achieve this with just about any sampler
Lofi the genre is different from the actual terminology in my opinion. Lofi is short for lofidelitiy which is achieved like you mentioned from a low quality source but lofi the genre I think is just an extension of Hip hop that people use to warp, pitch, modulate, phase a sample so it losses the quality. That's the big difference that you start with a semi clean (not all the time) source and add FX to make it lose its quality.
How do you copy and paste? I don't have the VGA, so Im trying too copy and paste from the screen
If I remember correctly you hold the copy and copy it over to another pad? It's been a while
I found out
😷🔥👍🏿👌🏿
Thank you for watching!!
Beat's so hard it can't sit still
Heyyyyy what up Blezz! I appreciate that, thank you!
Can the MV8000 do lofi? Oh yes, it can!!
Oi bro, did you sample a Japanese record with a woman on a shipyard?
