All user reviews for the Roland MC-202

Ngatif point: the mini keyboard is really cheap trs.
The form of fader controllers are quite nice, easy to handle, it can be used like a cross fader mixer hiphop to modulate the sound, trs fun.

UTILIZATION

The edition of his live is very simple, just play with the faders! on the other hand, without knowing the beast, it is easy to "get lost", but at the same time, that's how I found my best patches.
As against the use of squenceur trs is making head, my personal, I dropped prfrant much use live.

SOUNDS

It's going to infrabass the shrill bleep, to a sound close to a trs acid 303.
DIFFERENT playing with parameters, the sound palette is very broad
Personally I use it coupled with an old guitar multi-effects (Boss ME8) and your exact vritablement is explosive.
I use it live with a group instead psycherock, as well as studio projects for electro and hiphop.
The overall sound of the 202 is all the same rather aggressive

OVERALL OPINION

I've had 3-4 years and I never tire of playing with, I still discovering new sounds.
I do not like the sequencer, too ugly to use a machine without memory!
But using live, my god it's good, ARAG quarter-turn, yells, grsille, twists in all directions, while being able to be mild, with sonnorits close to an organ (cheap of course!)
To make sounds (percussion, analog bleep, etc) she is doing well too trs.
I bought 300 euros the era, and I do not really regret, and I would do without hsiter this purchase!

The controllers are complete and effective connectivity is trs complte Exceeds but a bit today (cv / gate, DIN sync, tape ...).
MIDI is not original but not install it as I did, well Obviously a difference!
The sounds that can be drawn are quite simple but well made, the dynamics are as good on most analog.

UTILIZATION

Use of squenceur is a disaster if you're used LOGIC or other soft!
But even comparing hardware sequencers is in fact the programming mode is catastrophic, but it seems that one can CRER tubes techno by typing notes at random!
The manual is clear and complete, but what a squence To create complexity, makes it the best back up a MIDI and the kit you can enjoy the quality of synthtiseur and forget squenceur .

SOUNDS

The TRS is part of the classic but still enjoyable program.
The bass is deep and trs leads are fine, so it is complete but less monophonic typ That a TB-303 for example.
Dja has no effect trs sounds good and thanks to the LFO modulation capabilities, but it's even more funky!

OVERALL OPINION

I use this synth for 3 years and 4 months with MIDI and well recess I would advise all users of the team as well.
For me the synth part is really good and all just trs Funky, however the game is anything but music sequencer and intuitive (I do not like the sequencer TB-303). I m'tonne its always cte as low considering its quality and rarity as only 4000 t pices have built the era ...

This machine sounds (not in, otherwise go to another site) of pure strain annalogique. for users to plug ins or other m ... computer objects that want to use buttons other than their girlfriend or laptop, this is where it goes.
ouscillo two most used a sub at the same time (big sound !!!!) ensured that you can choose the envelope with hauteur.un vcf assignable to either filter or VCO (ADSR, envelope, if you can ue ceq it, stay on logic). lfo with a frequency modulation tions allowing enough grin. for the connection, hit the road jack !!!!, not noon but the dcb (for sinchro with 808, bassline, TR909, Jupiter 8, etc. ....) Polyphony: Corsica (not kidding !!!!) monophonic obviously.

UTILIZATION

Setup is simple and clear, almost one button function.
Editing sounds easier for those who know the analog
The manual is clear when you look at the light (mdr!!) Kidding

SOUNDS

For one of the world's smallest synths, it's the safe bougre.des well phat bass or leads of killers, sweeps the air, the foo (not a pardon is me!)
certainly not realistic sounds but I do not give.
its expression is good (mine I do not ....) sasi
edition of the sequences is as a bassline on a bit daunting at first but much more interresting That a common soft. Another undeniable atotu machine you control another synth roland (with CV / gate) through the sequenceur.Pour who would take me a cretin (cretin.fr thank you) know that you can Save the sequences ( donns not the sound) using a sampler by connecting it to the place of the magneto MC202.

OVERALL OPINION

For almost ten years now that I use and I'm not ready to sell it.
it runs on battery.
I do it again this choice without hesitate

Small path that gives very good results in the low!

UTILIZATION

Super easy to program or too simplistic. The issue sounds simple is just by the absence of sub menus etc. ....

SOUNDS

I am a big electro so yes great but the sounds are basic (sirens etc ...)
No aftertouch.
He makes little sounds of some nice organ in September.

OVERALL OPINION

I have since the late 95 ... C is expensive for what quo can do but it's still a good analog qd same. C is very close to sh 101 except that it must bypass the sequencer that prevents a good fit noon with the pro solo eg. There are kits shunt, c is a bit boring actually.

Analog pure and simple, monophonic (yes it is surprising to the people of my gnration! Plug into the headphone jack out of both speakers ...)
SYNC24 sync (convertible noon with a box I think it)
keyboard legs of flies and sensitive ultra ractif
all plastic looks a bit cheap, it looks like a toy! trs light, small.

buttons and faders are quite sensitive but prcis, we feel that small should not be super strong, so it is treated with delicacy and attention, and she makes good!

A filter, and all the fuss basic no effect.

No memory, you can always save some sort of noise on a tape magntique (!) To save your sole and exclusive pattern (a song, so plutt) to be forgotten each extinction machine, and then replay the sound so that it finds your components. I have not tried and I do not do it!

In the era I think that default noon and sequenage worthy of the name has earned a commercial fiasco.

UTILIZATION

Adjusting the sound architecture with simple buttons adquate.

The manual is clear plutt.

The squenceur Abrat is a kind of nature: first type the notes, then assigns them to edit a hard, failing which it will play all your notes Manir r guliere like a robot ... in short, impossible to accommodate "normal" something that fawn, but you can get amazing results with this INTERESTED mthode and barbaric.
It's a shame there is not an easier way to give a last note, it would probably not be complicated to make t and would have given a much better ergonomics sequencer.
Otherwise, a sampler, it is a pure joy of sound.

I will personally try to midifier order to compose patterns.

SOUNDS

The sounds are great, electro DEFINITIONS, trs hot, very big, pure analog!
Russia to have low sub wonderful, good for all sorts of blips, bass acidouilles short, it covers a range of high quality electronics.

Mono so, but you get to sample beautiful harmonies.

OVERALL OPINION

It's been a few days.

Most:
analog sound standard, the simplicity of SOUND
the sequencer mystical

The -:
the sequencer mystique.
The ratio quality price is a bit expensive because today is the price of vintage. But when you love, has not many. A remake that choice, I say yes without hsiter.
