What do you wanna see in the next MV?

[Clavinet]

I have no clue when Roland will release the new MV (2011-2012?) but I contacted Roland and asked if I could come in contact with the developers of the MV so they could use some of my "ideas", the replied NO! They want to come up with their own ideas, ok I respect that but I still think they should listen to us potential buyers and users. So here it goes - name the things you would want to see in the new MV-series and maybe just maybe some people at Roland will actually listen! =)

The things I want to see is:¨

Direct Note Access = That's the thing Celemony are working on now with Melodyne to be realeased early 2009. Roland should by 2011-2012 be able to use the same technology - Probably a worlds first when it comes to hardware...

Realtime Polyphonic Pitch-to-MIDI: Well the name says it all!

4GB RAM

Lots of experimental MIDI-functions for the midi-sequencer like those found in Cubase SX3, is it even possible to reverse MIDI with the MV-8800? If not make it happen in the next one.

There's more but I'll wait and see what others have to say.

I'm thinking about buying the MV-8800, but something tells me to wait for the new one instead....eventhough it'll tale years before they release it.

All the best!

I would like to at least one update for this machine before they go to the next model. I know, I'll have better luck on wishin to win the lotto.

but if we have to wait for a new machine, then...


Part Meters
Track meters
Zoomable Audio track to see the waves,not those white gum sticks we currently have..
Wave Cursor.
A ribbon controller.
A 'qwerty' keybord jack.
more realtime controllers.
And a way better cooling system.. as of now, the fader slots act as an air intake and mad dust gets in there causing the faders to act on their own without touching them and if you're recording while that happens it gets recorded as automation. Big designer Flaw..This flaw proves that Just because they are engineers, does not automaticaly mean they are smart.

I believe Roland main heart now is only on the Roland MV-8800. Since 2003 - When they introduce the Roland MV-8000. The only Upgrade they did on this, was add a color LCD display - few changes inside the unit. Updated O.S., new panel color. Better Hard Drive. So not much changes as you see its the Same Machine the Roland MV-8000 vs Roland MV-8800.


Roland MC-909 (2002)


Roland MV-8000 (2003)


Roland MC-808 (2006)


Roland MV-8800 (2007)


Its seem's Roland Corporation life span on there gear's is only up to 4 year's til they introduce something else thats maybe better or replacement. In this case they tryed with the Roland MC-808 but its not much better then the Roland MC-909. Each machine has there own use for what people are looking to use them to make there own music. If you already have the Roland MC-909, get a laptop to add more back to back power with your Roland MC-909. The Roland MV-8800 is still a good machine don't get me wrong, but don't compare them like apples and oranges. You can even still use the Roland MV-8800 with your Roland MC-909 & Roland MC-808. Its up to you to think whats you want to add to your craft. Also up to you to feel and think what is easy on your spending for your pockets. Every machine is good as how you make them come alive when making your own music. MACHINE OR INSTRUMENTS don't make music. Its people behind the gear's - are the one who really making the music. Your gear's are only your extension of your mind.
