some questions for MV-8000 users...
9 Mar 2009, 22:09hi,
i just picked up an MV-8000. although i would eventually like to use it in the studio, the main reason i picked it up is for live use... i'm done with laptops!
i have some specific ideas about what i want to do with it live... before i go digging through all of these manuals and addendums, i figured i would ask here to find out if some of these are even possible:
1 - i understand that you can only use 1 set of stereo inputs at a time... can i use them as 2 separate mono inputs instead? specifically, could i process them separately live? (ie, have a synth going into the L-in, and a mic going into the R-in, with the MV's reverb on the synth, and the MV's multi-FX on the mic)...?
2 - can i set up the knobs and faders to act as fixed/dedicated controls per song, without having to navigate to different areas with the buttons/etc? example: F1 controls CH1 volume, F2 controls CH1 reverb send, F3 controls reverb decay time, F4 controls CH3 chorus send, C1 knob controls MFX Space Echo delay time, C2 knob controls MFX Space Echo feedback amount, etc, etc....?
3 - is there any way to have the Multi-FX be accessible on an FX-send? (what a bummer if not! i would love to have sends for that Space Echo FX.... seems strange that these FX would be limited to be used like an insert)
4 - can i import standard Midi files? i'd like to be able to just transfer midi files created in Logic straight into the MV via USB
any help would be appreciated!
thx
jason
