So, I found out that the MC-808 needs an editor program to alter the tones within a patch.
Here is the beginnings of my exploration of what it is able to do.
Remember.... I am a beginner at this MC-808 thing, and this is also the first time I’ve used the editor to actually edit and change the parameters of a voice patch !
So, if you know a better / easier way, please let me know !
Have you used the editor?
If so, please share what you do / have done with it.
00:00 Introduction and switching on, connecting via MIDI interface
01:00 What settings need to be changed on the MC-808?
02:00 Soft Through and Remote Kbd Sw
02:40 Run the MC-808 editor program
03:30 how to enlarge the view to see a larger program window
04:35 set up MIDI device
05:15 the menu
05:35 the editor manual
06:35 click on the Read button
07:20 the sliders in the program move as the sliders on the MC-808 move !
08:20 selecting parts - either on the MC-808 or in the program
09:00 begin discussing and comparing the editor screen with the MC-808
10:00 how is the editor helpful to me?
11:45 ... I do not understand all these settings ...
12:15 why it helps me to be able to visualise the settings and routing
13:40 the Patch Edit menu
14:40 Patch General screen
15:35 Unison select
16:10 Patch Wave / Pitch screen
16:50 “...special sounds...“
17:15 the four TONES ...
17:50 Tone Switch and Tone Select - on the MC-808
18:35 - - - audio/mixer re-connect - - -
19:15 select/deselect individual tones
19:40 choosing a different Wave for the individual Tones
21:15 Tone Delay Time
23:15 you cannot do this ITB (in the box) !
24:10 another thing that helps my head understand - envelopes
25:45 changing envelope parameters
26:50 not a ’normal’ MC-808 sound...
27:05 excited about the Patch Filter parameter page :-)
28:35 now Tone 2...
29:30 Tone 3 filter type change
29:41 CAUTION ! RESONANT PEAK EXPERIENCED ! ! !
30:30 looking at the velocity curve changing shape
31:20 Patch Amp parameter page - this is too exciting :-D
32:25 we have a BIAS ... what ever that is...
33:33 (mobile phone interference in the background) 8-/
34:10 Patch LFO parameter page .... it has waveform representation ! ! !
34:20 manipulating the LFO wave - each Tone HAS it’s OWN LFO 1 and 2 !
38:10 Patch Structure parameters ....
38:35 PAUSE - tone choice revisited
39:25 - back to Patch Structure = explore the different Types
41:10 Patch Velocity Range parameters
42:40 Patch Matrix parameters - with the “...Oh, the video is over 40 minutes long...“ revelation !
44:35 Back to the Editor main page
45:00 adjusting reverb / levels on the main page etc
45:30 green light indicator
46:05 the Sample Edit page...
47:00 reversing a sample
47:15 in Sample Edit, the MC-808 swaps into ((PC-MODE)) - which means that the controls / pads on the MC-808 do not work whilst editing the samples...
48:40 a possible faulty / dirty connection identified on the right channel
49:35 audio back - almost...
50:00 “Oh baby“ play and reverse
50:32 “crazy“ ...
51:00 “Yeah“ - bye !
