SP-FORUMS

What a steal!

You know that you can easily put your own sounds on it using a standard eprom burner? Turn it into an 808

Hehe, yeah, a crunchy 8-bit digital 808!

Got a lead on a burner, actually. Interesting is that longer samples, like the crash, span several eproms. Curious to see what will ...

edit/ dumb question

I KNOW. It was sitting next to a VCR, actually. I played dumb and said "How much for this goofy old thing?"

The guy said "A friend of mine gave me that. I don't even know what it is. Two dollars." I have literally had dreams about scores like this happening.

I walked it to a guitar shop (2 ...

Yard Sale, $2. Works, needs some switches cleaned/replaced. Features mods for remote trigger of kick and snare, plus dinosaur stickers.

Hah! Exactly what I planned on doing with the loop? I would have to catch one first to know for sure! But I was thinking mostly tweaking, processing, and generally rendering loops abrasive, particularly subjecting it to the SP-555's DJFX Looper was interesting to me. That and bitcrush. Lots of ...

Aaaaah. After watching the demo, the Korg Microsampler may be the thing. Partcularly that "Key Gate" mode. That's EXACTLY what I'm after, or maybe even a little beyond. Thanks tons!

I also realized a workaround. On further thought. I could trigger SP-555 samples from a couple channels on my Korg ...

I want to bring live sampling to an electro/rock band; more specifically I want to have a line-in from my guitar ...

Hmm. I'd say use pretty much any electribe (I like the EM-1 to start) as your MIDI sequencer and sync it to a 404, or even a 303. Then you'd have:

1.) The song composing options of the electribe (you could program intro/verse/chorus parts and save it as a song)

-and-

2.) the 404/303 would ...

I switched from the cred-boosting 303 to the 555 and never looked back.

BlindFold - I like that you pulled a real meditative groove out of a real busy track.
Sierackula- The bass sounds underwater. In a good way.
Deta!l - Pulling a deliberately dissonant hook out of the stepped ring aaaaalmost mod won my vote.
elhau - Love how layered the percussion is in this track ...

Yeah, that's the double truth.

Thanks; on further listens I wish I'd polished it up a little more before uploading. Ah, well.
