The Roland MV-1 Verselab is also a veritable vocal studio to go. Its XLR input features a high-quality mic preamp with onboard +48V phantom power to help you get the best sound from your handhelds and studio microphones. Inside, you'll find on-demand vocal effects — vocal doubling, an auto-pitch, and a harmony generator — to turn your rough ideas into mix-ready vocal stems, all without turning to the computer or plugging in additional effects.
Comping the perfect vocal take no longer means firing up the DAW. The MV-1 Verselab lets you record up to 16 easy-access takes, which you can copy and paste anywhere in your song to create gold-star arrangements.

Powerful ZEN-Core sound engine
The MV-1 Verseland features Roland's most sophisticated sound engine to date: the ZEN-Core Synthesis System. ZEN-Core is the key to the MV-1's top-notch audio quality and sample playback.
3,000 onboard sounds
Arguably, no manufacturer has been more influential in the development of groove-based music tools than Roland. From its groundbreaking TR-808 drum machine to its latter-day SP404 sampler, the Roland name is inextricable from the sounds of dance and hip-hop. Roland draws on its rich sonic heritage to infuse the MV-1 Verselab with a curated collection of more than 3,000 iconic sounds from its past and present. We're talking beefy analog-based kick drums, crunchy claps and snares, 303-inspired bass lines, and more groove-enhancing samples and effects than you can shake a stick at.
Grow your tones with Sound Packs
If you're looking for genre-specific inspiration, then look no further than Roland's expandable Sound Packs. These samples are drawn from the ZEN-Core synth lineup to give you instant access to that special sound in your head.
MIDI control, stereo I/O
Want to integrate the Roland MV-1 Verselab into your analog studio with your old-school groove tools? Standard 5-pin MIDI in/out makes those hardware connections a snap. You also get stereo line inputs and outputs to take advantage of the MV-1's rich stereo sounds.
Cloud session storage
Ever wanted to collaborate with a partner in another state? Or do you just want to work out of the studio for a while? The MV-1 Verselab's cloud storage makes both feats possible.
Zenbeats app integration
A Plug-and-Play USB connection connects the MV-1 to the Roland Zenbeats app. Here you're able to augment tracks with plug-in effects, add virtual instruments to create fuller-sounding productions, and mix tracks in a familiar DAW-like format. The Zenbeats app also gives you onboard mastering tools — 5-band EQ, compressor, limiter, and more — so you can ready tracks for listeners' ears before you export them to music platforms and social media. All told, if you're looking for a powerful production tool with a friendly hands-on interface, the Roland MV-1 Verselab comes highly recommended by beatmakers.
