Roland MC-808 Sampling Groovebox

A New Sampling Groovebox from the Masters

From the company that started the groovebox phenomenon comes a powerful addition to the famous Roland groovebox family: the MC-808. Optimized for real-time performance, the sleek, silver MC-808 features eight motorized faders on its surface - a groovebox first! With the sampling and sequencing power identical to the MC-909 and Roland's most sophisticated processor at its core, the MC-808 possesses top-of-the-line sampling, sequencing, and synthesizer features. Yet it comes in at a new low price.

The same sampling and sequencing features as the MC-909

The Roland MC-808 shares two key attributes with its elder sibling, the flagship MC-909: The same top-of-the-line sampling and sequencing features that made the MC-909 so famous are built into the MC-808, making it a serious tool for sampling, editing, track building, and mixing. Performers are in for an extra treat with the MC-808, however, as it has a remarkable feature that no other groovebox has....

Eight motorized faders for more control

This is a groovebox first! The MC-808 includes eight motorized faders to make complex mixes and sound-shaping moves easy to accomplish whether you're programming in the studio or performing live.

Fresh new sounds and patterns

The Roland MC-808's internal sounds and patterns have been created fresh by artists around the world. Make no mistake - these slammin' new dance and hip hop grooves are instantly ready for prime time. A few "must have" sounds from the MC-909 are also included. But playing and manipulating the internal patterns is only half the fun. The MC-808 allows you to sample any sounds you like, edit them, and add them to your productions. You can even import WAV and AIFF files from your computer into the MC-808 via USB.

Includes editing software

Besides the live performance features of the MC-808, you can make fine-tuned edits on your computer. The MC-808 ships with an editor software (Mac OS X, Win XP/2000) that lets you perform serious sample editing tasks on the luxury of your large computer monitor. Use the patch editor to tweak sounds and work on the part editor for part mixing to finish up your patterns.
