Will there be a NEW groovebox soon!

Post by Atziluth »

Looking really forward of a new groovebox coming out, maybe Musikmesse.

I hope they didn't give it up!!!
On the Roland homepage the MC808 is on the legacy site and stores tells: DICONTINUED

What's going on?

Me too. A new MC or MV would be cool. Any rumors?

I would love to see this line of instruments continued and expanded too. Theres so much possibility.

Some features I would love to see would be

- for pattern operations to be in increments less than 1 bar
- even more memory
- the ability to map the sliders to commonly used functions on the front panel
- colour touch screen and or VGA out
- larger memory and storage capacity
- quicker loading when using the full memory
- More visual editing, but without loosing the current simple realtime/pattern/TR recording
- More FX
- More outputs
- More routing
- Better quality sample inputs
- Better midi file handlind ie export song as midi
- Better more flexible warmer internal synth engine
- SRX expansion boards
- More of the "PC" functions native to the device

I'd be happy to pay for a device like this, I cant seem to get more than a 1hr live show out of my MC-808 as it is with the restrictions on pattern memory and such.
