mc-505 man

[kevellus]

Hey,

I'm borrowing one of these things without a manual, and it seems a little daunting.

I'm basically having trouble erasing and programming my own shit into the patterns ( I don't really know if this is possible, I'm just looking at it like a drum machine).

Anyone have a PDF version of the man. or know where I can get it? or at least a portion.

I hate to state the obvious but have you tried Roland?

Good luck with or without a manual. It will take you a year just to get a grasp on that thing.

Actually the manuals not on there... But there's some helpfull info nonetheless. The manual is about 200 pages and I'm not sure it exists in pdf.

But, if your willing...

Roland never puts their manuals up as PDFs, the evil bastards.

ya that's what I thought after I looked around for some time.

I've already exhausted all my internet resources,
thx anyways.

You don't have a chance of learning much of anything on the 505 without a manual. I'd spring for the $8 manual if I were you.
