- What is up my friends! In todays video I show you guys my process of making a beat on the Roland MV-8000 and what's going through my head as I am progressing with the beat. I do talk a lot more in this video so if that isn't something that you are into I am sorry LOL but if you do happen to sit through the whole thing and absorb and listen to what I am saying then THANK YOU :) It's been a while since I've discussed or have gone into detail when making a beat, its been a hectic couple weeks so I am really trying to find the right balance to still create content and make music. I haven given up, like I've mentioned I enjoy making these videos, I really enjoy the conversations with everyone who shares the same love and passion for hip hop and samplers like I do. It really is a joy to talk to you guys so I appreciate you guys leaving comments and interacting with one another thats really cool to see. So I hope you guys enjoy todays video (a little longer then usual) Thank you guys so much for watching!

Hi Chris! Can you imagine...this machine still rocks in 2019. Of course it depends on the man/woman behind the wheel and you show your skills. Great work!
Just have mentioned your channel on my channel for all those MV-fans.
I mean...you're totally into LO-FI and I'm more focused on making electronic music with the MV.
Peace and keep it up!
I know its insane when you really think about and compare it to everything that came out in those years. Thank you so much for the compliment and the shout out will check out your music indeed. I have a huge appreciation for electronic music especially when you create that type of sound on a sampler, I find that very cool.
Great video, those beats & sounds are dope. The MV8000/8800 still can deliver kick arse beats today.
I have an mv8000 as well looking forward to more videos from u bro badass work
I really enjoyed the ranting. You should do more like this, either on the MV or any other piece of gear. It would be really dope to show your work flow on the Digitakt. Your beats on that are always so raw and gritty.
I feel like I learned some tricks. And I think I recognize the sample.
Appreciate you brotha I am happy to hear that. Ill def keep that in mind next time I hop on another sampler kinda walk through my proccess
3:40 I never noticed the "loop" option in the menu. It's good to know though... A quicker way is to *push "Shift" & the loop "On"* buttons together.
DOPE! I didn't know that
Those drums are gnarly! Great video insane beat
Thank you thank you! I am very happy you like it!
I need to get some free time to get moving on my MV-8800. I upgraded it with a CF drive and use a SDHC to CF and a 128GB card. I had to format the SDHC to Fat32 prior to installing, but it all works well. I first tried a SSD with a IDE adapter, but it never got recognized by the MV. I then took out my SD and copied the base files and additional samples on my laptop (super fast). This was pretty simple and easy to do just had to take out a lot of screws from the bottom a few times.
Never thought of a CF drive that might be a good idea too but is the drive internal or are you replacing the floppy drive as well? I would love to swap out the Floppy for a CF drive that would be perfect for me lol
@@chrisgalactic it's internal. Syba Dual Compact Flash CF to 44 Pin IDE/PATA 2.5" Adapter Enclosure, Black SD-ADA45006 www.amazon.com/dp/B0036DDXUM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_9ht-Cb0B6JQ28
@@chrisgalactic I think the 8000 may be 3.5" so you may need a size adapter also. this was a 2.5" and the I also used thisDIGIGEAR SLIM CF Adapter : SD SDHC SDXC WiFi-SD eyefi to Type I Compact Flash Card www.amazon.com/dp/B00XO2KSEO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_9jt-CbES97B59

@@rgcmusic Very cool thank you and that is why you were saying to switch the cards out you have open the machine? But it still not bad considering if prep and put everything you need and with time fill it up with music Im sure would take some time to fill it up
Have you experienced the MV going into digital when you want to sample ? Mine do and I have to keep initializing the machine in the settings for it to go into analog when sampling. What OS are you using on yours ?
The latest OS, this usually happens to me when I let the MV boot without creating a new project. This probably a bug
That one thumbs down missed the boat on what the MV8000 is capable of doing...& kudos for that Roy Ayers Ubiquity sample as well!!
Haha I know right can't make everyone happy lol Ayy good ear.
Glad to see other mv fans
The MV is a beast
do you think you will ever get into midi sequencing? sequencing outboard synths and drum machines?
not my cuppa tea but brought a smile to my face a a nod to my head.....
Man I’m trying to get one of those or the 4000 mpc and hope I can get it just feel the mpc is it
Can you make a video on how to set it up and if you can set I to a computer and how to make a hip hop song on it,
89 is my main groove for that grimy Mobb type tracks that I try to recreate... 😬
Yes! 89 is a perfect tempo too for those Mob deep style tracks. Love Havoc's production style man, always had a unique sound to his music.
Yeah the talking was allot but I fast forward through to the music very cool sound. Didn't know that box sounded so good. I like that you can connect a monitor to it. I use an MPCX. Great work.
Felt like ranting a bit more in this one and thank you hope to get an X one day soon. I would love to make beats on that beast.
DOPE!
Thanks yo!!
What OS are you using on yours ? I am using the latest OS and my machine keeps switching to digital when I want to sample. I have to keep initializing the machine to get back to analog. Have you had this problem on yours ?
Bless Chris , have you studied or looked into automation movements (when recording a track, have been studying this very issue for like 3 days , and it seems like you have to select a mid track or audio track (empty) then record your movements , rather it be panning, reverb , or level changes) i did some real-time automation with the panning & reverb as i can see some events on the track , But then when I load a patch to it nothing happens, and I also loaded a patch first recorded some automation movements , and nothing happens, reply back asap and let me know what u come up with, much peace Wiz
I've messed me with minimal automation on the MV but I will test your procedure and I will get back to you to see if I received the same results.
@@chrisgalactic ok cool let me know, cause i have a issue with the MFX effects C1 -C3 knob automation weather im in pattern or sequence mode also,
Dope
Appreciate it yo
Wow all that in only one take!
And I find interesting that you never start recoding first with high hat, I personally find myself kinda lost sometimes with the metronome alone
Yeah I guess I've also been accustomed to using the snare as my guide I might try recording with the hihat next time to see if I can come up with a different groove or something.
Nice vibe! That classic head nodding ish fo sho!!
Appreciate it bro, thank you for watching!
das rollt einfach tierisch :)
that was badazz
have you upgraded your memory or the hard drive? got a 120gb 7200rpm from the "bay" last week for $54. Easy to install and I noticed it is a liiiittle bit faster. And of course more room for samples etc
I haven't still running the 32gb one but thats a good idea. I need to look into it tho thats not a bad price for a 12gb hd is that the max the MV takes?
@@chrisgalactic i think it is. the drive is actually 160, but it only uses 120 of it. theyre still up for sale. search for mv-8000 120gb hdd. it was a seagate.
also if you didnt know the 512mb ram is usually pretty cheap and easy to put in. the mv only comes with 128mb. doubles your project space.
@@jaymack Oh cool I'll look that up forsure thanks bro! I haven't checked the ram, I think it's running 512 mb's but I have to look into that too just speed things up a bit. Thanks again!
@@chrisgalactic upgrade your mv8000 with an Intel 320 series ssd 120gb I did it one year ago and never had issue with it. I did also the same with my vs2400 cd and puted a silent noctua fan for both now they are dead silent and banging beats ready.
There's a video comparing speeds with an SSD. Almost zero difference. Seems the ram may be the bottleneck. I'm about to grab one of these this weekend, so I'll be enjoying the load and save times soon enough.
Maybe I exaggerated a bit lol the loading and saving speeds aren't that bad. I still got some samplers with floppy drives, now thats a whole different story lol
Cool!
Thank you thank you!
Slow loading time...has been the only........COMPLAINT..
..EVER
Yeah and I think its a little ridiculous because it's not as slow as floppies lol
Very DJ Vadim just put it through a valve compressor
Sounds kinda like summer Everybody loves the sunshine don’t they.
Appreciate that!
88 miles per hour. Its drilled into all the heads of us 80s kids. I'm assuming you're one of us. ;)
Hahaha you know what that makes perfect sense. I'm a 90"s baby but I cant tell you how many times I watched that movie lol
hi! what note lenght or step time is set when you druming?
Depends I usually set it to one shot but gate kinda gives the drums a cool sounding bounce and sometimes a bit more realistic sound
wish this had a battery pack option
yo man would you sell me this beat by any chance? im a writer i cant get it out of my head. if your down plz contact me i may be of service to you as well in any artistic way anything you need. much love blessings
lofi is not a thing
Let's not get in that debate. lol
