The biggest thing was that it never crashed & got you away from your laptop so u never wasted time browsing utube or downloading porn

When this dropped I worked at guitar center in Manhattan, people slept on it so bad! I knew it was a beast. I should've bought one.

The MV-8800 was fantastic, but with the small display you really had to use an external monitor. Unfortunately, the video card supported only VGA. There were many MV-8800's for sale new on eBay for years after Roland discontinued the item, and the prices were quite good. I doubt that Roland will ever make another machine like this one. The MV-1 is supposedly the successor. However, it does not have the large amount of controls like the MV-8800.

Quantize in real time and every track can have their own quantize set up(sick). 512mb(expanded) of sample time still till this day is ridiculous. Built in pre for turn table sampling.

What really killed the MV-8800 was the recession. The timing of the release was very unfortunate. As world economies fell into a deep recession, the fate of the MV-8800 was sealed. This also influenced Roland to stop supporting it because sales were poor. It was such a shame because this instrument was terrific.

Oh ok cool.

The MV880 was an amazing, way ahead of its time machine. The problem is that it came from Roland and they don't really have a history of sticking with things. There are so many Roland products that could have been really amazing if they just put more resources and time into it.

Fam, My 8k has been a mainstay in the lab for almost 20 years. Indeed it was far ahead of it’s time. I sat on it for a full year before forcing myself to learn, and use it. Afterwards, I’ve always swore by it. It’s MIDI capabilities have prolonged it usage in my lab. Being heavy into sound modules, the MV easily commands them with intricate controls. As a sampler, it rivals almost all of them. These days, it’s still my favorite, yet going through a sibling rivalry with the newest arrival (s2400). The MV deserves it place in history, and truly is shameful that Roland gave up on it. Us faithfuls still love them, and continue to share information as a community. 👍🏾✌🏾

I purchased one (MV8000)last year in April when everything shut down due to Covid. I got a good price on it. Back in the early 2000s the MV8000 peaked my interest but man it so darn expensive it wasn’t obtainable by a bedroom producer like myself. I’m really pleased with this equipment, the work flow is smooth and after mastering the sounds come out really clean. The DAW portion of it reminds me of Cakewalk from back in the day which I’m completely fine with. All in one machine that saves me space in my home.

I don't have the 8800 but I do have the MV 8000! One of my boys let me get it for a while and I'm loving it. It can do just about any and everything you would need. Besides technical malfunctioning, I think most people who see fault in the machine's functionality just maybe aren't aware of all it's features and how to navigate them, because there is really NOTHING it cannot do! Roland really should have continued to manufacture this series! Roland, how about a MV 9000 in the new year!

Also made a new adapter board to hook up VGA and Mouse(since ROLAND does not make those any more!). Customized case with super bright LEDs backing screen and extended wood side panels that let my MV hold a 1 octave MiDi controller underneath that pulls out like a drawer!!!Next up is finding a laptop screen I can attach and plug to VGA port.

He said they came to him a couple of times and he refused to have anything to do with it if it didn't have the same sequencer. I almost couldn't believe that he would be that selfish.

Former MVNation moderator here and I can attest to all homie is saying regarding this machine (which I still have fully loaded w/output expander and vga card) which was and still is to this day, a beast. Highly misunderstood machine cause people's mind sets were primarily locked into the MPC way of thinking. My only gripe to this day is that Roland engineers didn't have the foresight to include a waveform cue marker or 'scrolling cursor' for a more visual editing experience (not a problem if you had good ears and could read the waveform). Great machine though, just ahead of it's time. Hope that Roland builds off the current MV-1 and goes big with an "MV8" but learning what to and what not to do with this machine this time.

Nice walk down memory lane in terms of great sequencer-sampler midi production gear. I'm still a proud owner of the first release of the Roland sequencer; the MV-8000. I agree that these units were underrated and unappreciated, but most of the misunderstanding was due to exactly what you mentioned in the video. People approached it with an MPC mindset and couldn't wrap their heads around the MV's workflow. Producers always go back to vintage gear for a certain character that the gear provides like the grit of the old SP-1200. Although I have moved on with other production gear, I often gravitate to the now legacy MV8 for nice loose and punchy grooves. If you can get past slower loading and some of the modern tools that can speed-up your workflow, then the MV will get you where you need to go. I can't think of too many things I can do on an MPC-X that I can't do on the MV-8000, it may take longer, but can be done! Nice video, Bro! Good job and thanks for making this....

I love the machine , I remember my older brother buying the mv8000 Back in 2006, he could not comprehend the machine and understand the DAW workflow at all, I watched the DVD tutorial and learned how to import samples, chop them up , load built in instruments, make loops , then arrange the loops to make a song in on the track. then you master the track and finally burn to CD. This was my first introduction to a DAW /sampling/drum machine/ mastering/ looping/Mixers ect and it was super hard to figure out. I still use this machine to this day and record my band by sampling live drums and guitars into audio phrases and join them in the DAW. For a bypass of the ram and recording a whole performance I use the MIXDOWN mode and just record. super easy and an amazing machine. Using a foot switch on it as well to help bands start their recordings , Machine was Truly ahead of its time .

I cant remember 100% but if i am not mistaken it was supposed to be called MV 9000 and was canceled due to the economic crisis around that time. PS: you might have a point in your statement for the mv8800 beeing to advanced for its time. Same thing with the v-synth/ GT: people were not getting the possibilitys, even i didnt back then. Since then Roland kind of stayed away from Flagship products in this market and focussed more on the low tier/less risky consumer products. From what i feel they have made a serious effort to get back to these innovative times with their new Fantom. check the specs its mindblowing

It was too far ahead at the time like you said. It was the first DAW. People at that time just didn't understand it. Now it would be criticized for not having enough features. I still want one.

Only just subscribed to your site. Still rock this all day mv8800 kills all akais 😂🤣🤩🤣

IMO one of the most underrated features was the clip board button… it’s the little things…

Yeah it was a nice sampler with many unique features, the loading and saving times were too slow for me though, in the long run it became frustrating, waiting over a minute to load or save a project. It also had a digital synthesizer built in as well, which was actually quite usable. I think one of my favourite things on it though was the shuffle templates, these were great for adding variation to hats and percussion and you could come up with some interesting rhythms by combining different ones on different sounds. As far as I can remember they were kind of like a combination of shuffle and velocity changes, that you could apply to sounds rather than the standard quantisation settings, you could also change the percentage that these effected the sound to add further variation.

new Roland MV-1 Verselab is perhaps the successor, although very understated

Also, forgot to mention many of the features that Akai's current MPC line (Live II, X and One) have now recently gotten, the MV8800 at OS v3.52 already had ie; audio timestreching, 16 midi tracks and 8 stereo track recording, audio clips that can be triggered, muted, soloed and recorded; pro level effects, built in mastering, hard disk recording, 24 track mixer w/mute, solo, effect sends and parametric eq on all tracks. Pattern and Drum Grid recording and Piano Roll, Drum Grid and Event List Editing similar to that in a software DAW.

I think you meant to say the MV8000 at OS v3.52. The MV8800 last OS update was at v1.01 which included the features and bug fixes from the MV8000 OS.

I think that was also around the time Akai brought the MPC 5000 out and that was a beast too. Could upgrade to a nice big hard drive, full synth, audio tracks for vocals with faders for each track, lots of ram....... it was hard to beat but then at that time everybody started wanting software based bs not standalone. I always said give em a year and they’ll be back lol. Now look......standalone MPC X lol.

Great revisit of this machine. As a previous owner of both MV 8000 and 8800, I agree that if Roland had continued the development of the MV 8800, it would've been among the top "studio-in-a-box" machines. Perhaps one day, Roland will muster a team of modern-day minded developers and resurrect this machine to a new and improved version...then, the alarm clock just woke me up...😒
