Flagship Features

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The MC-808 shares two key attributes with its elder sibling, the

flagship MC-909: The same top-of-the-line sampling and sequencing

features that made the MC-909 so famous are built into the MC-808,

making it a serious tool for sampling, editing, track building, and

mixing. Performers are in for an extra treat with the MC-808, however,

as it has a remarkable feature that no other groovebox has....

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Motorized Faders

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Motorized faders on an affordable groovebox?! You’re not dreaming.

The MC-808 is the world’s first groovebox with this feature! Sure,

the motorized faders look cool, but they also provide serious power

for live performers. No matter what pattern you call up, the faders will

snap to the proper position. As a result, the parameter values and

position of the faders always correspond, allowing you to see the

values instantly and make changes directly. No more unexpected

jumps in values when you grab a fader in mid-performance. It’s

always in the right position. Plus, from the fader movements you

can see automations such as filter, pan, and part levels changes. If

you want to cancel and control the faders manually, simply move

the touch-sensitive faders.

New Sounds & Patterns

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MC-808's internal sounds and patterns have been created fresh

by artists around the world. Make no mistake — these slammin’

new dance and hip-hop grooves are instantly ready for primetime.

A few "must have" sounds from the MC-909 are also included. But

playing and manipulating the internal patterns is only half the fun.

The MC-808 allows you to sample any sounds you like, edit them,

and add them to your productions. You can even import WAV and

AIFF files from your computer into the MC-808 via USB.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Editing Software

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Live performance with the MC-808, and fine edits on your computer.

The MC-808 ships with an editor software (Mac OS X, Win XP/2000)

that lets you perform serious sample editing tasks on the luxury of

your large computer monitor. Use the patch editor to tweek sounds

and work on the

part editor for part

mixing to finish up

your patterns.
