Free Roland Stuff. Cool Korg Stuff. Hyper-gear full throttle.	By Florin Tibu, Editor, Software Reviews 27th of February 2007, 10:39 GMT Adjust text size:


Roland and Korg: two giant names in digital sound, two of the largest and strongest pillars sustaining the world's music. And from them, new things are coming out these days - useful things that is, for the music enthusiasts as well as for music producers. First of all, for one of Roland's top gear, the majestic and coveted MV-8800 integrated studio. A tool so sought after by hiphop and R'n'B producers for its amazing capacities for both hands-on operation and all-in-one functionalities, the MV-8800 will act as the complete and complex solution for beat and multitrack recording, editing, mastering and CD-burning. Supporting a third-party monitor and mouse, this awesome unit features linear-recording/editing style as major DAWs do and comes loaded with many Roland instruments and presets which made history. Now, don't think the Roland is giving you an MV-880 for free... but still, one very cool thing is the fact that you can now download for no charge 14 MV Workshop PDF booklets. Now, now, things are becoming interesting, aren't they? Speed up and get your hands on this free offer from Roland's as these workshops will be a very valuable addition to the owner's manual as they cover the most in-depth features you'd need when the creative urge is upon you... Visit the Roland website and see that the booklets end up on your hard drive! The second name I've mentioned has made groundbreaking history in the world of the synth keyboard with the Triton series. Along with Korg, there is Kid Nepro. Kid Nepro stands for 23 years spent by Korg's side, providing all the time full support as well as patch banks for MIDI or vintage, samples and - generally speaking - about everything a Korg user might want. Now it's time for Kid Nepro's 12th volume in the Triton Collection, the Producers Mix. This last volume is the coronation of no less than 7 years of constant programming and development of FX and synth combinations from all Triton workstations. 128 programs and 64 "combis" are available in this last chapter in Triton history, all just to set you ready for either a studio session or a live gig: from R'n'B and Hip Hop up to rock or classic, all is in there, all recorded live with no over-dubbing and o tricks: just plain juice for your future creations! For more on Kid Nepro's Korg works visit the website and choose your new tools! One last thing: Producers Mix will end (as I have already said) the Triton series but do not despair: summer will bring the first M3 patch! Photocredits to Korg and Roland.
