MC-707

Citation :

C est vrai ça que c est contradictoire, je n arrive pas à comprendre comment on peut charger un clip d un autre projet mais ne pas pouvoir charger un autre projet en entier !? Et du coup on y gagne quoi !?

Si j'ai compris le principe : un clip est juste de l'information MIDI, il n'est pas associé à un son. Donc, oui, charger du MIDI va plus vite. Ceci dit, un clip est donc limité à faire des variations sur un même son... Donc, faire un live avec 8 pistes qui ne varient qu'au niveau MIDI, mais pas au niveau son de base...

Bah du coup comment tu fais ton live de 2h Falken !?

tout à fait ! Pour avoir eu la MC 505 et le JX 305 c'est la même machine !

Pierresilex > Tu aurais d'une idée de clavier / machine qui ressemblerait au Jx 305 niveau workflow ( avec une élévation en terme de qualité sonore peut être ) ???

Les temps de chargement entre projet, c’est 20,30 secondes, c’est énorme...

So after spending a few hours with an MC707, here are some initial thoughts:

Pros:
Being able to load clips from other projects. You can load a looper clip to a looper track, a tone clip to a tone track, or a drum clip to a drum track. So this opens things up quite a bit. Your looper limit is 60 seconds per project, but you can add looper clips until you hit that limit, and then you can delete some on the fly that you aren’t using anymore to free up memory and add more. For drum and tone tracks, you can add clips from other projects as well, but it seems like the clip just holds the sequencer data. You can also import track sounds from other projects also, so you could change a drum kit on the fly, or a synth preset on the fly. Basically, you can import clips (sequencer data), and sound presets from other projects, but they are brought in separately. But in this way, you could use a Looper track as a transition piece. You could be jamming for a while, then find a good transition point, record a loop, let the loop play while you import more clips and/or sound presets, then get jamming again for a while, then record a loop, rinse & repeat.

While the motion record may not be as comprehensive as some machines, you can motion record per step, and the motion on/ff button is a nice feature.

I like how the scenes feature.

You can set Master Tune per project from 415.3Hz–466.2Hz.

The menu diving isn’t that bad, unless you want to get into deep editing of the tone tracks.

Cons:
When looping from internal sound sources, there is slight phasing between the source track and the looper track. So as soon as you loop a track, you would want to mute the original immediately afterwards. Which I guess isn’t the worst thing, because once you grab a loop of something, you were probably moving on from the original source anyway. In the reference guide, towards the end of the looper record instructions, it mentions "The track being recorded stops producing sound.” This would make sense that the source track is muted right after the looper is finished recording. Maybe a bug? Maybe I am just reading that wrong.

Yave to stop playback to save a project. This is just ridiculous. Why do I have to stop playback to save my project? Weak.

What is up with having to remove two screws on the back to get to the SD card? The old pinch off things work fine for me on the SP303 and 404.

All of the user loaded samples go in one folder. No organization. So stupid.

... et me la prêter ... merci Falkenmaze !
