Roland W-30 Sequencer (2025x4)

Data de estreia: Jan 16, 2025

Famous for being the sequencer of choice by Liam Howlett of the Prodigy, the Roland W-30 from 1989 had a very capable, easy to use and great 16 track sequencer. Pretty much the same as the MC-500mk2, but with a bigger screen. The MC-500 only had 8 tracks. In this video I'm not using any internal sampled sounds at all. I'm using the W-30's sequencer to trigger external sounds over different midi channels as usual, but instead of using a midi module of old, I'm triggering different plugins inside Cubase 11 pro. Setting up the different plugins to respond to different midi channels. Don't forget to filter out the other channels from each plugin inside Cubase if you're going to do this.
