Re: SP 404sx back in the saddle
I do really like the skip back on the mkii. Especially for recording live instruments. But I’ve been enjoying using the subsonic for bass parts. Keeps everything in the sp and really- I’m just trying to keep my brain engaged as I get older :shock: :lol: Its a good exercise for my ear and I like the ...

Re: SP 404sx back in the saddle
I’m with you on immediacy. Sound wise as well. I remember moving from the og 404 to the sx and thinking “man this thing seems brittle and harsh”! I feel the same way about the mkii vs sx. It’s probably placebo but the mkii sounds and plays- like you said-as if just an emulation of something previous ...

SP 404sx back in the saddle
So….I sold my 404sx years ago. Picked up a Mimi and well-repurchased an sx. It’s just so straightforward. Mk ii felt like working on a mini computer. The only thing I miss is that skipback feature and of course the chromatic mode. But really, the sx is so fast and fun. Over and out……..

Re: sp202 buzzing sound
Sounds like a grounding issue. Do you live in an old apartment/house with old wiring?

Re: Recording and sampling back to IOS
If you want stereo in on your iPad/iPhone you have to get an interface.
I have a Roland duo-capture that doesn't need batteries and works off my phone/pad with cck. There's a duo-capturemk2 but I'm not sure of the difference.

Re: SP Balboa
Great idea! Digging your lates tape. I wish I had more time to help out with this but I'm sure you will get a lot of offers.

Re: How many different songs do you sample for one beat?
It's all just fun and games for me making music with the 404 allows me to disappear for awhile. So, good or bad, I don't stress about the finished product too much. That being said I like the challenge of grabbing stuff from different songs and trying to fit them together. It almost seems ...

Re: Your workflow...
PT turntable or cassette boom box >303 or 202>resample method>404sx>computer. If I have loads of time, which I don't , I sometimes pitch stuff on my tascam 32 r to r. With 3 kids it's all about efficiency these days.

Re: How Old is Everyone Here?
I thought I was gonna win this one. Nice to know there are a few here who remember Wacky packs and spending hours making mix tapes. The first time I saw a CD I thought, " nobody is going replace all their records with these things!"

Re: Where to get new pads/knobs for older SPs?
The dj tech knobs do fit on the 202. The posts on the 303 are a bit taller so the knobs fit but they sit a bit hi up
