Love it! I hope more creators open up about their thoughts and experiences with free gear after the initial videos waves are made. Great work as always :)
I love my Force, bought all the plug ins, when on sale. Had a 500GB SSD installed, filled up quick so ordered a 2TB. I’m a sucker for grooveboxes, i got MC 707, Verselab, SH 4d amongst a few other bits and bobs. I hope they make another Force, upgrade it with a decent processor, 8GB ram, mpe, throw everything at it. There’s a challenge.
I caught that "as of late June 2022" near the end, look at you flexing your backlog :). Good stuff! I own a handful of those and the MF is definitely "weird" - it says it right on the box, but in a very good way! The tracks is almost utility at this point; but the Syntakt / Polyend Play get more attention of late because they're new and different.
Thank you always for the content on your page, I've learned a lot about the circuit tracks and the old school Korg Electribe2 both of which I use, but your tutorials and encouraging sound design and synthesis is amazing, your channel is an invaluable service, thank you!👍
I agree that the "128 voices" of the MC 707 can be a bit misleading. What I found helps is to stay away from the "virtual analog" stuff where even the filters eat up extra voices beyond 12dB. For most of my own sounds, I stick to PCM where it seems to be the case that 1 oscillator = 1 voice and the TVF is "free" as far as I can tell. But your mileage may vary, and I may be wrong. In any case, here's to hoping for an MC 707 MK II with a more powerful CPU/DSP, the machine could really use it. But then again, it could also use ACB and FM but I guess Roland will never go there since they have the TR-8S to sell as well.
What you said at 15:59 ("it's so powerful, but not as powerful as it initially presents itself") pretty much sums up the MC-707 experience compared to the marketing materials perfectly.
Hey Gabe. Have you done any sound design on the 707's software editor? I have the TR8S and its software is great - just wondering how good the equivalent experience is. Thanks! 👍
I don't have a 707 (i do have the mc101 & tr6S), but the mc101 has just received an update that unlocked damn near full sound design capabilities for the ZenCore Engine, & the flexibility in the sound design is surpisingly deep, so I can only guess the mc707 is the same if not a bit better. I'm not sure how much access you have with zencore stuff on the tr8s, but the tr6s is fairly limited when compared to the Mc line, but it makes sense since it's focused on drums
I've done a little bit with the software editor and it's pretty good. Given the choice, I'd still design sounds on the units themselves rather than in software but it's pretty well laid out.
You do you, be transparent and just give the viewers an honest opinion. You will end up ruining your rep if you just shine a light on every product. Nothing wrong with cons of anything, that's how we get improvements. :D
re: the microcosm - getting a patch bay for your setup is a game changer for hardware effects allowing you easily route any of your gear through it and even software tracks if you have the right interface. the big minus is you need way more cables...
10:16 I was given the Roli Block as a gift but I don't use soft synths so I use it as extra pads for the MPC One (as long as I remember to switch the mapping from the peculiar native MIDI map).
@@GabeMillerMusic hi Gabe. To start as a complete beginner, would you recommand the circuit tracks over the Mc 101 ? Or is it smoother to start with the tracks then upgrading it later with a Mc 101 ? I'm not sure wich one to pick to begin my creative experiiments... (I read that the circuits synths weren't that great) (on that regard, would any downloadable synthfiles fix that or is having an extra machine thru midi the best option ?)

Hope you 'll read this :D Thanks for the amazing content you put thru your channel ! Please Keep it up ! Cheers from belgium
Great video Gabe! @14:36 very fair criticism of the MC707, I think a hack to get over the polyphony limit is to bounce stuff like chord stacks to a looper track, maybe utilize looper export & have a drum track solely dedicated for melody/harmony looper exports. Still, very annoying & should've been taken into consideration when making a flagship product, but at least with the updates, they have suitable work arounds (at least for me when I'm working in the mc101)
The last freak firmware update was great, but still no metronome for realtime recording, love it’s strings and the cycling envelope. The microlab has cord memory as does the freak in all the oscillators types.
I really enjoy MC707 stand alone but I use it primarily as a sound module for MPC Live 2. The two together is a very powerful combo even if recording some external gear. I think the stock Akai sounds are so-so while the 707 stock sounds are much better. I have no interest in buying expansions or plugins from Akai so the MC-707 gives me over 3,000 quality sounds/presets to pick from and add effects to. Then I use MPC Live 2s sampling capabilities, looper and song mode to bring everything together. Alternately I can run MPC Live 2 into 707. I prefer the other way of 707 into MPC because I can first capture all the sounds I want for a song from 707. The samples/loops/clips/keygroups etc will be saved on MPC. Then I can disconnect from the wall and 707 & use MPC Live 2s portability factor to finish the song outside, at a park, on the couch, in bed, etc. to put it all together. Yeah the cost of the two together is as much as MPC X by itself but I get 3K more sounds, 16 more pads, physical faders and portabilty the X don't have. ✌️
Always appreciate your content, Gabe. Quick question on the MC voice stealing you spoke about. Do you find that since the 101 only has 4 tracks, you plan your composition in such a way that voice stealing is less of an issue than on the 707, where the extra tracks make it a bit more enticing to scale things up?
What about Native Instruments? Did they reach out to you? :) Aaaand: Have you had any requests or collaborations regarding software (DAW, plugins, etc.)?
Hey Gabe - thanks for this - I agree with your top 3 and own them as well. Much less used of course due to my semi-talents and lack of time. I am curious if you have or will be reviewing anything from Cre8audio - especially the East Beast or West Pest as they may fit into your ecosystem - small but with big sounds. Would love to hear what you would do with them.
I love your videos, im thinking about to get a circuit tracks and I want to ask you something, you have never had problems with the usb type c port in the circuit tracks or with any function of the device ?
@@GabeMillerMusic There's no ifs ands or buts about this: if companies are sending you free stuff, you are highly incentivized to review it kindly or they won't send you any more and threaten you youtube funding stream. And we all know it. If you want to maintain integrity, you'd (1) purchase stuff to review it and (2) immediately return any free swag you receive.
It will be nice if you did a review about drum machines, specifically tr8s. I own that beast and wondering what more can I stretch this machine to. Tnx Gabe!
Why would you try to fill out every oscillator on the mc707?? Doesn't make any sense to me. I run a live project full of clips and I've never run into voice count limit. I'd say if your track has more than 128 voices at a time, somethings wrong. There is just no place for 128 voices on the audible spectrum if you want your mix to sound somewhat bareable.
Moderately surprised Digitakt isn't in this roundup. I'm guessing it's a case of haven't had enough time with it yet? EDIT: *Looks at title again* Oh, right, yeaaaaah. You bought that one with your own money, not Elektron sent it to you. Would be nice to see a "months later" recap on it though!
Haha yeah. Tbh I haven't used it much since I was using it a bunch to review it, so I'm not sure how much longer I'm gonna hold onto it. I still like it quite a bit, but I've got too many monophonic sampler grooveboxes already, and the Syntakt is a bit closer to what I really want out of an Elektron box.
Do not send this guy your 707 - this is a scam. I know this because I actually do work for Roland. To make up for this, I'd like to send you our new flagship 14014 to try out. It's twice as good as the 707. If you get in touch with me via Telegram we can sort out the shipping fees.
I get the appeal of the circuit, but there is one issue I have with it. The rotaries have no indication of what they do, and they are different on each synth. That's fine for 'production' where you can spend as much time as you want with each synth/channel, and working on stuff, but it's not conducive to jamming and experimentation and just kind of gets in the way. But again, I'm one of those people who makes music that nobody is going to listen to and isn't trying to finish or release songs.
I bought a 707 and the menu diving was the worst part- I'm very ADHD so learning that sort of detail basically makes me 1) feel sick and 2) leave it on the shelf. In the end I just sold it. A shame, as for the stuff I made it sounded great. Still looking for a proper easy to use groovebox, so any suggestions from people with similar concentration issues would be welcome!
That's a bummer. The Circuit Tracks might be worth a look, it's much more hands on/intuitive and even makes jumping around between ideas a part of the workflow (which I love).
I struggle with the tracks still . I still dont know how to use gate , micro step ,pattern settings , velocity , fixed , view lock , fx sidechain , quantise , scales or what any of them are for . Tried to run it with midi paired to old Yamaha and only sound was piano on both midi channels , none of the other voices could be heard through tracks midi channels , can anyone help
Gabe I know this is slightly off topic but out of the Syntakt, MC-707, or Akai Force which do you think would be best for a live set / performance setting?
In the year of 2022, there still is no perfect gear. There will never be. We each have our different tastes. That's the fun. If there were a perfect gear, TH-cam would not exist! With that said, we appreciate your perspective and transparent approach. Stay safe and keep jammin!

@Erin Celeste , thanks for the info. Sounds like it could be and perhaps should be a simpler system. At least you don't have to pay the taxes by default which, while simpler, you just have to do.
This is only stuff sent to me directly by the manufacturers, and I don't have any relationship with Native Instruments. I did have a Maschine+ on loan for a bit, but that was through a third party and I sent it back a long time ago.
Yes and yes! I made that song from scratch on camera using the Arturia Jupiter 8 plugin as my only synth. And I did a video a while ago about how I make synthwave on the MC-707 and it shows pretty much my whole workflow.
Gabe, we review videos on YT. Your content is getting better, however there is I still a maturity issue in your scripting /dialog. By the way did you contact every user of said gear before speaking for them? You use the word ‘we’ and you never contacted us or our userbase we speak with. Additionally, you haven’t used said free gear in such and such time. Your lack of using said piece is 100% your workflow. This is 100% lack of creativity on your part. Said companies are watching your videos deciding if next time they feel you have matured to be a benefit themselves, are you fit to ‘global ambassador ‘. You may view yourself as being fit because you have made videos in the past and people have sent you free stuff, so you’re doing something right correct? -You’re so happy people are sending you free stuff you’ve made it? No you have not made it. Too much copy cat content from other creators whom maybe have the same issues you have been overcoming. All comment were constructed 100% from content from this channel.

Regarding the polyphony, you need to be very wary about Unison. That can really eat up voices like hot cakes.

Additionally, you haven’t used said free gear in such and such time. Your lack of using said piece is 100% your workflow. This is 100% lack of creativity on your part.
Said companies are watching your videos deciding if next time they feel you have matured to be a benefit themselves, are you fit to ‘global ambassador ‘.
You may view yourself as being fit because you have made videos in the past and people have sent you free stuff, so you’re doing something right correct?
-You’re so happy people are sending you free stuff you’ve made it?
No you have not made it.
Too much copy cat content from other creators whom maybe have the same issues you have been overcoming.
All comment were constructed 100% from content from this channel.
Sent with love.
really hard to watch and listen when your hair is hanging in your eyes..
