The Roland Super Quartet - The 80s band in a box! (2020x13)

Air date: Jun 26, 2020

If you’re after a classic Roland Juno-106 or TR-707, you might not know that both (plus a bass synth) are found inside the MKS-7 or “Super Quartet” from 1985. Roland made various rack mount versions of their 80s synths in the MKS range, but the Super Quartet is a little different and is somewhat related to their earlier CMU-800. In this video we take a look at what it does, how it was intended to be used and how it can be used in ways that weren’t intended.
