    Hi Chris! Can you imagine...this machine still rocks in 2019. Of course it depends on the man/woman behind the wheel and you show your skills. Great work!
    Just have mentioned your channel on my channel for all those MV-fans.
    I mean...you're totally into LO-FI and I'm more focused on making electronic music with the MV.
    Peace and keep it up!

      I know its insane when you really think about and compare it to everything that came out in those years. Thank you so much for the compliment and the shout out will check out your music indeed. I have a huge appreciation for electronic music especially when you create that type of sound on a sampler, I find that very cool.

    Great video, those beats & sounds are dope. The MV8000/8800 still can deliver kick arse beats today.

    3:40 I never noticed the "loop" option in the menu. It's good to know though... A quicker way is to *push "Shift" & the loop "On"* buttons together.

    I really enjoyed the ranting. You should do more like this, either on the MV or any other piece of gear. It would be really dope to show your work flow on the Digitakt. Your beats on that are always so raw and gritty.
    I feel like I learned some tricks. And I think I recognize the sample.

    I need to get some free time to get moving on my MV-8800. I upgraded it with a CF drive and use a SDHC to CF and a 128GB card. I had to format the SDHC to Fat32 prior to installing, but it all works well. I first tried a SSD with a IDE adapter, but it never got recognized by the MV. I then took out my SD and copied the base files and additional samples on my laptop (super fast). This was pretty simple and easy to do just had to take out a lot of screws from the bottom a few times.

    • @chrisgalactic
      @chrisgalactic  5 лет назад

      Never thought of a CF drive that might be a good idea too but is the drive internal or are you replacing the floppy drive as well? I would love to swap out the Floppy for a CF drive that would be perfect for me lol

    Have you experienced the MV going into digital when you want to sample ? Mine do and I have to keep initializing the machine in the settings for it to go into analog when sampling. What OS are you using on yours ?

    • @chrisgalactic
      @chrisgalactic  5 лет назад

      The latest OS, this usually happens to me when I let the MV boot without creating a new project. This probably a bug

    Bless Chris , have you studied or looked into automation movements (when recording a track, have been studying this very issue for like 3 days , and it seems like you have to select a mid track or audio track (empty) then record your movements , rather it be panning, reverb , or level changes) i did some real-time automation with the panning & reverb as i can see some events on the track , But then when I load a patch to it nothing happens, and I also loaded a patch first recorded some automation movements , and nothing happens, reply back asap and let me know what u come up with, much peace Wiz
