MC-808: 622 Basic Waveforms File

Post by Re-Member »

Below is an attachment containing every basic waveform in the MC-808 as listed on page 2 in the Sound & Parameter manual.

Each wave form is saved as an individual patch to play back in mono, placed on all four tones and at the highest volume setting. Even the drum tones as saved as individual patches so you no longer have to dig through drum kits.

To load file:

*Be warned that this file will copy over every EVERY patch you have saved in either USER (Internal) or CARD memory, so back up your sounds if needed*

1. Connect the MC-808 to your PC and set USB mode to STORAGE.
(SHIFT + Keypad 8)

2. Figure out if you want to load these sounds over your USER Patches or CARD patches.

3. Set USB Storage Mode to either INTERNAL or CARD

4. Use your computer to enter "ROLAND" folder, then copy the new file into the "SND" folder so that it saves over the file previously in there.

5. Exit USB Mode, power off the MC-808, then power back on.

Now you got all the basic wave forms as new patches. I even went and categorized everything for easy scrolling.

Happy New Year!

And of course, the file is too big to create as an attachment.

Email me at rg.remember@gmail.com and I can send the file, which hopefully someone else will be able to host.

would be great to hear the non-factory patches made up from zero

i could not get myself inspired enough to do all that with those point-click-point-click-... steps involved with the soft-editor

but i'd be happy to hear from anyone doing that, cause the engine architecture of 808 is not actually toyish ... and it does sound better then electribe's to my ear 8)
