Offering over 5 hours of operation from AA batteries, the Roland MC-101 Groovebox is ready to produce tracks and perform sets just about anywhere. It packs the sequencer, synthesizer, and effects from the flagship MC-707 Groovebox, in a compact four-track version. The ability to create your own samples and loops, and its powerful sequencing capabilities make the MC-101 a smart solution for integrating with other synth modules. Whether you need a portable production center, or a compact sequencer to go with your other synth gear, you'll be impressed with the Roland MC-101 Groovebox.
Tons of built-in sounds to expand on
Right from the start, the Roland MC-101 is loaded with over 3,000 sounds including pounding basses, vibrant leads, spacious pads, and much more — and that's in addition to over 80 preset drum kits. You'll quickly be able to start creating your own custom loops, with high-quality sample recording up to 24-bit/96kHz sound quality. And with 90 types of multi-effects processing plus mastering effects, you have endless options for re-sampling and processing your custom sounds.
Clip-based sequencing for production and performance
Like the most popular sequencing apps for your computer, the Roland MC-101 features clip-based sequencing that gives you a ton of creative potential. Four tracks are available — use the built-in ZEN-Core sounds for pounding drums and vibrant synth sounds and effects. Producers love how easy it is to connect other sound modules via MIDI and sequence them from the MC-101. Whatever you create, you can save your audio and projects to SD card media (included).
