New Roland MV-1 and Zenbeats integration

So I bought a verselab mv1 for the Quick efficiency and creativity based on efficiency and limitation in favor of straightforward song completion. Me and a local rapper kinda are a producer rapper duo group and this just seems like the BEST thing for throwing down quick tracks and if needed separate the stems and touch then up a little post verselab mixdown,

That said, I have updated my firmware correctly, formatted my Sd card correctly, but I can’t for the damn life of me figure out Roland cloud manager. Like WHAT IN THE ACTUAL F.

I don’t understand it at all. I don’t know how to get the packs onto my verselab. Can I put my OWN sounds into the verselab like with my 404mk2? Or must I only use Roland sound packs? Which is fine if I could figure out HOW THE F TO DO IT?!

And you got a year with your verselab?!? That stinks I feel like I kinda got ripped off. I didn’t get anything cloud related with my verselab, however i got 6months of pro with the 404mk2 (yet it’s stilll taking my 2.99$ a month for core subscription? Do I need to cancel that and just let the free 6 months expire before resubscribing? )

Am I missing how I can redeem my free year? To me it’s like “you get one extra pack with your verse lap but you may be able to get 4 ¯(ツ)/¯ “ and truly yes, one pack is available for download for me and there are several “locked” packs that I cannot download. Because of core subscription I have all the zenbeats packs but the Roland cloud packs which are different is so confusing to me and it doesn’t help when im literally inside Roland cloud manager and I click on a pack and it says “availble in Roland Cloud Manager!” I’m like wtf am I using something different here? No says Roland cloud manager at the top… I really want to use the verselab like you are using it. Here’s the thing, while I was trying to put more sounds and packs on the as card I was attempting to play with the barest minimum sounds that it has without the SD card and found it incredibly unresponsive I couldn’t play the pads with any kinda of smooth precision it seemed to be quantized to 1/4th notes and even the “style” or note repeat type button just didn’t work…. The pads again half of them didn’t work, etc. I’m hoping it we the lack of the sd card being in it at the time and it will return to its responsive self once I get the sd figured out and put back in… but it was so frustrating i gave up on the SD card and the verselab altogether that night. Maybe @MatthewAtZenbeats can help me out here too?? What am I missing here?! I want to absolutely love this product I bought it for all the reasons it was advertised for but again half the damn packs on Roland cloud were locked despite my free 6 months of pro…

Oh and also (I haven’t tried iPad yet) whenever I try to integrate windows zenbeats and the verselab it just gets stuck on the opening/loading screen for zenbeats after clicking “verselab editor” nothing happens and i wait for so long and nothing until I have to turn it all off and try again. Not once has it worked, again I haven’t tried pairing it with my iPad or iPhone yet but I really want those Roland cloud packs I was basically promised now to find out I only get a single pack, doesn’t tell you how to install the pack to your hardware, and all the other packs including PACKS I ALREADY HAVE ON ZENBEATS were locked on Roland cloud when attempting to add them to my verselab.:.

The free 1 year promotion was years ago , not valid now
The core membership you have on iOS has nothing to do with desktop, you need Zenology Pro to export sounds
Since you have the pro membership from sp404 check this video , it's about mc101 but applies to mv1

If you want to put your OWN sounds in the SD card it's easier , simply put wav files and load them
Can you rephrase :
"Here’s the thing, while I was trying to put more sounds and packs on the as card I was attempting to play with the barest minimum sounds that it has without the SD card and found it incredibly unresponsive I couldn’t play the pads with any kinda of smooth precision it seemed to be quantized to 1/4th notes and even the “style” or note repeat type button just didn’t work…." ??
doesn't make any sense

As for the Editor problem I suggest opening a ticket to support including OS type and version
Disclaimer : I don't own MV-1 , but watched videos/tutorials since I'm looking to buy a second hand

MV-1 integration with Zen Beats is underwhelming. You get individual track volume and pan, UIs for the effects, and that's about it. I don't think ZB's MV-1 mode supports AUs, though I may be wrong. Plus you cannot mix and match clips from different tracks like you can with the MC-101/707 - they all have to be in the same Scene, and that requires a lot of copying and pasting, which is no fun. I'd like to sell this MV-1 - Roland's deep-menu-dive system is infuriating for me.
