When inspiration strikes, VERSELAB helps you capture, refine, and finish your ideas. The fluid, hands-on workflow simplifies music making with modern vocal recording, pattern generators, thousands of ZEN-Core sounds, mastering effects, and more. Plug-and-play integration with Roland’s Zenbeats app expands your production capabilities using your computer or mobile device.*

Review: Fabulous for making music… - The Roland Versalab is the most useful, and one of the easiest to use, music production equipment I have has used. I have had many “DAW in a box” type machines and this is the best for me because it has so many available sounds and the user can quickly make all kinds of music, not just beats. I sold my MPC Live to purchase this. The MPC was great, but the user has to use lots of steps to, for example, to get a good piano sound that could be used across octaves. I now spend more time making music versus manipulating samples with the Versalab (but you can use samples with it too!). I highly recommend the Versalab for anyone who wants to make a variety of types of music.
Review: Dream Machine - I have had my Verselab for about three years now. I think of myself as something of a power user. That said, I still haven't utilized all of its functionality, because there is so much in the box. 3000 sounds come inside. While you can get more, I haven't been super tempted to because the sounds are so great. There's also a random tone generator. Contrary to what another review has said, there is extensive sound editing capability even inside the box as a stand-alone unit. The workflow is based on Clips and Sections. You do have to learn its jargon. A Clip is a track within a Section. A Section is a building block of the Song (like a chorus or verse). In Song mode, you put the Sections in the order you want them to play. Clips can be, but don't have to be the same across Sections, so you can change sounds as you go if you want to. Clips each have their own volume control, and you can set reverb and delay per clip without affecting anything universally (this is also separate from the effects you can add, which often have a send to reverb and delay as well). You can copy and paste in multiple ways as well. There is an extensive selection of effects you can use. Often, when you go into the multi effects place, you find that your sound is already using an effect, but you can still change the effect and try different things. You can easily edit notes and aspects of the drum sounds. You can ratchet. There are hundreds of arpeggios on board. There is also a chord mode. You can sample or import samples. You can do 16 tracks of vocals. You can connect outside instruments like a guitar to either sample or play over the entire song. I don't connect it with any other MIDI devices, but you can. I have used it as a sort of karaoke device, where I programmed the music, and then sang live over it using a microphone plugged into the unit. You can do that without recording the vocals if you like. It does have vocal effects, which brings to mind that you can also resample yourself, whether it's vocals or a musical part. This instrument isn't designed for live play. Live jammers do often have a very big problem with this. Roland does have other instruments for live performance. This is primarily a DAW in a box that is also much more immediate than a DAW. It is convoluted, but not as convoluted as a DAW. Many things just work really well. For instance, you can EQ anything, but I've never had a muddy mix on this. It's like the sounds have already been EQ'd. It has a small Mastering suite on board. Thus far for me, I just turn on the three things in the Mastering suite and the default settings do a good job of getting the sound right. (Of course it doesn't correct you if you've mixed poorly. Turn down those hats already!) There is really SO much to say about this box. The workflow is loop based. It's quite easy to record while the music is looping. Also, super easy to preview sounds during loop playback. You only get eight musically distinct bars to compose per Section, though you can have a Section play for up to 16 bars. There can be 16 Sections in a song. I think this unit is under-valued for what you get. However, I do see in the Facebook group that some people have had to get theirs serviced. Indeed, my own could use a light servicing as well. My parameter knobs sometimes jump around even after I stop turning. This issue seems to improve as I get deeper into a session, but it is a little annoying. I find it very fun and immediate to use. My hyperfocus always get engaged and I end up playing for hours. I always have something to show for that time as well. I always find I've made significant progress. I use to have a different Roland Workstation in the 90's, the Roland XP-80. This is head and shoulders above that in terms of what it can do and the speed at which it can be done.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great machine for hip hop beats, synthwave, electronic instrumentals
*by J***R on April 29, 2024*

Great multifaceted music production machine by Roland, with tons of high quality classic Roland synth sounds built in and all the classic drum machines trimmings you would want for electronic music, you can also record vocals, good vocal effects but the T Rec sequencing is what makes this thing great
