Roland VERSELAB MV-1: demo tracks first look (Patreon)
Content
I've been taking a look at this for the past couple of days. Started making an unboxing and first impressions video - then realised I just couldn't work the thing!
There's a lot in here, so its taken a fair bit of concentration to understand what it can do. No point in making a video where you're not sure... but everything I tried to do resulted in 20 minutes of confusion :). Looking for Solo.. there is none... trying to flatten the velocity response of the pads... couldn't find it. etc etc..
Turns out it can do everything you need (almost), but I've learned never to say what something can't do as either an update will fix it or I just haven't found it.
I then found the demos which are really nice and thought this was a nice way of showing what it can do and how it sounds. This took a lot longer than expected. I thought they'd be a minute or so long - but turns out they're 3-4mins and there's 16 of them. 45 minutes worth of demos... annotated for 6 hours, then gave up :)
A 'normal' review will be coming soon.
Recorded in 4k.. I never realised it took so long to render down to 1080 - so the final version will be my first 4k upload. Much better than the 480k nonsense that happened a couple of weeks ago... duh!
