Very nice video ! IThank you ! Learned about that virtual CTL4 here :) I really like the auto-channel feature, really makes it a convenient sound module Now we would need that partial editor they added in the MC-101 So happy that the MV-1 firmware is still alive and evolving !
Thank you so much for this video! I've always been intimated by the motion designer but the way you showed it made sense to me. Also, what a killer update! So happy about having an undo function, thanks Roland!
I remember those vocals from your last demo. Still sounds gr8! I’m glad they made these updates. A few MV-1 users were asking for them. Glad to see Roland is willing to support the MV-1. Thanks for sharing another great video.

Too bad you can’t preview the imported sdz sounds beforehand. You could’ve mentioned that. Not to mention the sdz files glitch out and i have to power cycle my Verselab. It’s a buggy and unstable update. I love it because you can add vocals and make songs. I think its a unique device in that way. I stopped using Reason/PC last year and only miss it for guitars. But the verselab I get closer to finishing songs.
I made this overview a while back. It doesn’t go j to detail - there’s so much in here and so many options on editing clips, tracks, sequencers etc that it would be about 2 hours long. Hopefully it’s enough to get you started though. Roland Verselab MV-1-What is it and what can it do? Review Demo and Walkthrough th-cam.com/video/dJI0vN53KH4/w-d-xo.html
@@Melodic623 just like a lot of grooveboxes… you sort of suffer through a song or two and then it’s smooth sailing. Have had mine for a bit. So many good sounds in it….
….UNDO!!! Roland is back in the game for me! Opinion poll guys…I have the Fantom 08…I’ve HAD the MPCO one ….I’m CONSIDERING the MV1…Maschine is my go to…if you had to choose MV1 or MPC One…with everything updated now on both…what are you rolling with? Again…I’ve already had the One…wasn’t in love with the synth sounds..in love with the sampler…not in love with the workflow..it’s a tougher choice than I thought…I’ll be traveling for work starting next month…all feedback welcomed. GREAT video my friend.
So with all the updates is this recommended at $400 versus the sh4d and mc101? It seems like MV=vocal focus now with tablet support, Mc101 = cut down (I mean mobile) mc707 groove box, sh4d multi synth and percussion synth.
Hello, I need your help. I have created some tracks on MV-1 however they sound low after doing a full down mix. Even if I increase sections volume 127 max, the tracks still sounds low. Is there a master volume for the whole MV-1?
Is the MV-1 registered correctly - everything is linked to the license somehow. I can see the sound files for all the producer packs I downloaded yesterday (I’ve never used them before), and think only future pop has full clips. But did wonder if I was doing something wrong. Someone said they had over a hundred on the SD which caused issues.
@@coolo73 will try that I have installed them 4 or 5 times now and get different issues each time like no file or no licence or folder empty. I can got to the sounds folder and see the name but as I click on it to load in clip nothing
The undo is almost pointless , given it only works with the step sequencer , and it’s actually seems easier just to press a sequencer button to turn the step back off ! The random sound generator and fx seem cool though
I think the undo is much better than that. At some point in the demo I use it to undo a voice change for example (at least I think that’s what’s in the video). If you’re deep into editing a section, or a sign the wrong sound to a controller etc it comes in v handy. And yeah the random sound generator is very nice.
Anyone know if you can export the midi into a daw? I have been making little sketches on the mv1 but would like to dump the sequences to a daw on vst tracks, basically using my mv1 as a dawless writing tool but then moving it over to a daw to use different vst instruments, if that makes sense. Any idea how to do this?
@@thejoshuathomas thanks for the reply! I was able to figure it out eventually! At least sending the midi to the daw, which has opened up a lot of cool possibilities 😁
regarding bpm sync...in the video you change the bpm while the track is playing and the tempo changes. it didnt do this before the update? when i heard that they added bpm sync i figured that they meant that now the mv-1 bpm could sync midi tempo with other devices....but maybe thats not what it does? thanks for any info anyone has
It could always sync tempo to other devices, but now the looper track will change tempo whereas before a sample in the looper track didn’t change rate with the change in tempo.
Can i sequence a synthesizer via midi? I was reading in the manual that the Verselab can do 128 steps. But only when using the internal tones and drum kits. If i can use it to controll external hardware, then how many steps can i build a sequence???
@@ghanezu there was a problem with the update so I had no choice but to turn it off eventually which killed it. Physically it’s perfect, but it won’t boot up.
@@StarskyCarr Had a similar problem when I first tried to upgrade the unit😱. Nothing happened when I tried to power on the Verselab. I solved it by pressing SHIFT while starting it up, then the upgrade screen came back and I have been able to upgrade the unit 😰😉
this is BADGEAR , had it view weeks, crappy display, ridiculous limitations of some tracks, bad pads - and now, the 1.8 update most imported feature for the MC-101 are missed on MV-1 / ROLAND ! 🤦♂️
I think if you were looking for a holy grail groovebox… you are probably right that this isn’t the best. That said I do have many grooveboxes and have made several tracks of my mv-1 that I have enjoyed making. There are a ton of great sounds onboard and the screen doesn’t bother me as much as I thought. It is actually a great cheap synth in a box.
@@dracul74 True..I’ve got Zenbeats on a 12.9 iPad Pro which includes an MV1 editor..Problem solved……… I’m a vocalist so this ticks more boxes than the Akai MPC ONE

Really happy with these updates and they've fixed some of the issues with previous versions, love the added Standard Midi Files import function. 😊
We need a 1.9 update with a tempo tap
very well done and easy to understand review. Thanks for posting, Starsky Carr.
Nice update! Looking forward to playing with these new features. Hoping we get an editor.

thanks for another great Verselab MV-1 video and demonstrating the new update features! keep it the good work!
I recently purchased MV and have not yet had time to get used to the old firmware, but here is a new one, cool!

Hey Starsky…do you have a beginners video for the verselab? I just got one yesterday and am a little lost on how to get started

Excellent video - nice update
1.81 is better and fixed 1.8 issues
Where is my 404MK2 Update!
V3 wasn't that long ago. The 404 MK2 has had more meaningful updates than the Verselab overall
So with all the updates is this recommended at $400 versus the sh4d and mc101? It seems like MV=vocal focus now with tablet support, Mc101 = cut down (I mean mobile) mc707 groove box, sh4d multi synth and percussion synth.
Everyone stop complaining about no screen, they made records for 60+ years without no damn screen, you all sound petty

Hi. Could you explain how to use the fade out please ? Cant see anything about this anywhere and cant get mine to do anything. Thanks.

Thanks I cannot get the Mv packs to work for some reason on my MV-1

If you have a ton of SDZ files, try putting them in a separate sub-folder.

Honestly it’s been a huge enhancement for me. Never thought I’d say that about undo, lol… but yeah use it all the time now.
Please, I only want to know if it possible to connect a piano using MIDI or usb port and make recordings on the verselab from the piano?
Yes
Anyone know if you can export the midi into a daw?

You might have already figured this out, but you can use USB to send/receive audio and/or MIDI to your daw of choice.

@@StarskyCarr ok thank you sir!
I think the new FX is the exciter not the enhancer!?
🤦♂️
@@StarskyCarr BTW thanks for making this video, I was needed some tips, as the Roland presenter showed us on the MC-707 and not much on the MV-1
Question: Does the VerseLab have autotune or vocal pitch correction?
thanks.
Yes Gary it has autotune and pitch
@@Shades289 👍 thanks.

@@StarskyCarr oh sweet, had missed that video!
I had a bigger screen on my 1995 Emu ESi-32; looks like the OS was about as responsive as well. Seriously, Roland?
Roland be like: We got your money. He he he. Bye.
You can use usb to plug in your iPad to use the free software integration on it’s big screen!
Forget about a screen, you make music with your ears not your eyes, go work on your computer if you want a screen
I thought yours were broken?
It is… this one’s not mine! Mine’s gone back for a service.
