Finish More Music with the Roland Verselab MV-1 Music Workstation

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.

Hit the Ground Running

Music production can require a lot of time, money, and expertise. And for many new producers, it's hard to know where to begin. VERSELAB has everything you need to make radio-ready tracks without all the complications, so you can focus on what matters most -- your music.

From Intro to Outro

If you're a vocalist, beatmaker, or both, it's easy to create complete songs with VERSELAB, regardless of your skill level. Move fluidly from ideas to beats, hooks, and your listeners' ears with song templates, pattern generators, and a guided workflow that keeps you on track. Whether you're just getting started, getting lost with too many options, or need to take a sledgehammer to writer's block, VERSELAB is there to keep it moving.

Bars Meet Beats

VERSELAB is designed for modern music-making and vocal recording. The high-quality XLR mic input makes it easy to record vocals with built-in effects like Auto-Pitch, Harmonizer, Doubler, and more. Just plug in a mic, dial in the sound, and go. With 16 easy access takes and the ability to copy them anywhere in your song, arranging is a snap.

Sounds from the Source

For songs to knock, you need the best sounds available. Roland's sound has helped define hip-hop and other modern genres for decades, from the TR-808 to the SP-404. This sonic legacy is packed into VERSELAB, with over 3000 curated sounds that hit the spot.

Get More with ZEN-Core

VERSELAB uses Roland's most advanced sound engine -- the ZEN-Core Synthesis System. It's at the heart of our professional synthesizers and ensures top-notch sound quality. With Roland Cloud, you can expand the onboard library with thousands of new tones, including genre-specific Sound Packs to keep your music fresh.

Hands-On Music Making

Go beyond the mouse and keyboard with VERSELAB's inspiring RGB-lit pads and hands-on controls. Combining the TR-REC step sequencer found in legendary Roland drum machines with an ultra-responsive 4x4 pad matrix, you can bang out drum tracks, basslines, and melodic parts as fast as they come to you.

Plug and Play with Zenbeats

With expanding plug-and-play Zenbeats integration, you can connect VERSELAB to your computer, tablet, or smartphone for another level of production capability. Mix your VERSELAB songs or bounce tracks in Zenbeats, use plug-in instruments and effects, and much more via a simple USB connection.

Zenbeats integration available February 2021

Collab and Connect

VERSELAB is compact, portable, and can be powered by a mobile battery, so you can make tracks just about anywhere. Collaborate in person or remotely by sharing projects or tapping into the cloud storage features of Zenbeats.
