Roland MC-707
Product information "Roland MC-707"
With the Roland MC-707 GROOVEBOX you can let your creativity run wild on up to 8 tracks. You can import your own sounds and loops and synchronize them to your performance. With the 16 RGB pads you can create drum, bass and synthesizer patterns. It is very easy to combine loops and one-shot samples with melodic phrases as well as your own MIDI sequences and imported audio recordings. The MC-707's integrated Roland sounds come from devices like the TR-808, TR-909, the JUNO-106 and the SH-101, and the MC-707 is also part of an expandable platform. This way, you can expand your groovebox with additional content to explore new genres and styles. Each track includes a powerful sample player. The imported audio files can be automatically synchronized with the MC-707's tempo or edited with the MC-707's wide range of built-in effects and controllers. A wide range of professional effects is of course also on board. The MC-707 also serves as a USB audio interface and transfers the composition as a complete mix or in eight individual tracks to a DAW.

Roland was founded as a manufacturer of various musical instruments and studio equipment on 18 April 1972 in Osaka, Japan. Among the earliest products to reach the market were the first rhythm machines of the TR series, whose successors TR-808, TB-303 and TR-909 had a decisive influence on the techno, electro and hip-hop scenes. In the mid-1970s the JC-120 Jazz Chorus guitar amplifier was developed, whose ultra-clear sound together with the built-in chorus effect won over both Andy Summers of The Police and Kirk Hammett and James Hetfield of Metallica. Since then and to this day Roland have continuously expanded their catalogue across a wide range of fields such as digital pianos, grooveboxes, e-drums and synthesizers with high-quality and interesting products.
