Customer Reviews  THE MPC IS OFFICIALLY DE - THROWNED   by Byron Davis AKA ( Big B) from Jersey city, NJ, February 05, 2008 Music Background:  Producer/ Brick Scope Productions “Roland has broke the mold with the 8800, its untouchable in all aspects, any and everything can be done on this beast. Along with the sounds already installed to use I have sampletank 2.5xl and colassus sound libraries that I sink up midi and run directly into the mv8800, and the sequencer is better than the mpc.” • Click Here to Read More Customer Reviews • Write Your Own Review Sweetwater Expert Advice     "PHENOMENAL!! The MV-8800 is a sampler, sequencer, synthesizer, and mastering studio all in on package. You can even use a monitor and a mouse with it. There are no other samplers out there that can touch the MV-8800. It's the most powerful groove production box on the market, and it is the secret weapon for the latest hip hop producers who want to work faster and sound better than the rest." Carson McClain   "The MV-8800 makes the finest beats around! " Craig Wilson   "The Roland MV-8800 is the perfect machine for the dedicated beat master! Literally, hearing the first sounds is a matter of turning it on and pressing play. Beyond that is a powerful sequencer: group notes to make phrases, group phrases to make patterns, and group patterns to make songs. It gives you the ability to save all of your songs and choose from hundreds of effects for your tracks including reverbs, EQs, compressors and limiters, flanges, and a multitude of models to shape any of your virtual instruments. The MV-8800 makes playback performances easy with eight faders and a group of 16 velocity pads that can be used to play from one of your instruments or from a group of pre-set audio samples that can be struck at any time to compliment any track. The very best feature of the MV-8800 is how it can take you from the beginning to the end. After creating your songs from the bottom up, you have the power to mix, master, and burn your tracks. That's right: master and burn with the same piece of equipment you use to compose the music, which makes the Roland MV-8800 a powerful tool for any sampling composer." Joe Hebert   "After putting the Roland MV-8800 through its paces in my studio I can say without reservation that the MV-8800 represents a major advancement in the eternal quest to develop a comprehensive in-the-box production solution for the producers of R&B, rap, hip-hop, and electronic music."
