  • demonstration of the fully analogue drum machine MFB 522. Sounds like a "little brother" of the TR-808.
    This is the pure sound of the machine, neither added FX nor post processing.
    First the sounds, then some patterns to show the potential of the machine.

    Great little box. Worth the $$ just for the kick and snare. The snare is a perfect 808 snare emulation. The kickdrum has some features the 808 bass drum lacks: tunable/ i.e. you can change the pitch, and it can have a much longer decay.

      On the second hand online sites (European) I frequent every 2-3 months one pops up for about 150-200 euros. So there's a chance. Outside of Europe, I don't know

    nice little toy with a big boom, much enjoyable. but is it possible to record what you play live or sequencing is the only game?

    • @ShimanskiBeats
      @ShimanskiBeats  Год назад

      you can record with playing the pads but they're no that big

  • @shchii6296
    @shchii6296 Год назад +1

    is it possible to set the exact tempo? see no display

    • @ShimanskiBeats
      @ShimanskiBeats  Год назад +1

      if I remember correctly (sold the device a few years ago), you can't set the exact tempo but you can sync it to an external midi clock from which you can adjust the tempo

    Hey! awesome video man. Just got myself a secondhand MFB 522 and been getting my hands around it. Though I've got a questions for you: how do you make the sequence go more than 16 bars? I noticed some of the patterns you programmed sounds like it and I couldn't figure out how. Let me know man thank you!

    • @ShimanskiBeats
      @ShimanskiBeats  3 года назад +2

      Hey, thanks for your comment. For each 16-steps pattern you can program a 16 step fill-in pattern (which I didn't use as a fill-in but as a variation of the regular pattern). While your pattern is playing you have to press the fill-button to have the playback alternate between regular pattern and variation. Unfortunately I don't remember how to access the programming of the fill-in because I sold the device a while ago :)

      Pretty sure you can make songs out of the patterns, check the manual.

    Sound real good, close to roland's drum machines.

    very similar to an 808, some sounds are more tweakable as well

      if I'm not mistaken you can't control them via midi CC

    Is that hum caused by the machine?

      no, that's from the connection between the mixer and audiointerface

      @ShimanskiBeats  9 лет назад +1

      +Rodrigo Zapata bought it at Thomann, which ships to many countries incl. US, but the MFB 522 is currently out of stock there. According the MFB homepage it is still being produced so maybe you contact them directly: mfberlin.de/en/contact/
