SP-FORUMS

have tried again a couple of times but with no success

also brought back akai S01 sampler cost around 15 euro, still have it not worth switching on though. bought a korg EA-1 from Tokyo but through ebay and was considerably more expensive than the ER-1, over twice the price that i paid in Tokyo if i remember.

for about 100 dollars you could get a good guitar pedal analog filter. Which? The Digitech Synth Wah and Bass Synth Wah are digital, same with the Boss SYB-3 and SYB-5 (and they also cost more than that). The Boss T-Wah is the only one I know of, but it's pretty limited to wah sounds.

cant ...

i would like just to play the pads but gets back to playing the parts in time with each other. on playing a song though i have noticed audio dropouts, so maybe a mix of playing song and pad phrases may be better.
i have read that 250MB disks are better than 100MB, maybe they ran read faster.

i have been thinking of the same thing, Moog do a analog filter its about 250 dollars i think, would be one of the nicest sounding i think, if you look after it it should keep most of its value. anther option would be a SH09, these have inputs where you can push any signal through its filters, once ...

i picked mine up for about 300 pounds about 5 years ago. there cheaper now, for a very good condition with a few zips and maybe even a usb zip drive thrown in (UK) your talking about 150 to 200 pounds. i am considering getting a second unit, for these prices your getting a lot of machine for your ...

yes have managed to build up a 4 track song will render some more loops tonight in Live and then convert them and put to zip, once the loops are edited and made up proper everything plays together perfect on the 808 as they should. i seem to be able to record more than one pad onto each track so ...

maybe you can only use one fx at a time, i can use some of the fx on an single track, others though seem to go on all of them (master). i have also edited the song which is cool to build up a basic song structure although for certain things like volume automation maybe better to have built into ...

done it, have created a song and everything is in perfect time. created the loops in Ableton at 132bpm, sp808 says loops are 131.98 bpm!! anyway that's sorted out. i wonder now can you apply different fx to the tracks, EQ on A, space echo on B etc, i will give it a shot

yesterday i did manage to record to track A actually will try to record on track B today.

yes i admit it got a bit confused. seems to be little difference though between black-case and e-mix manuals. although was looking at the manual and i think i went about trying to create a song wrong, so i will have another go today.

have tried creating a song on track A but haven't got to far. my paper manual is for 808ex e-mix studio don't know if this makes a big difference. but yes creating a song with my phrases (pads) is the way to go i think. will download manual for sp808 black-case and see what the differences are.

i am trying to upload os 1.5 to my sp808 using updSMF utility but getting above error message on 808, anybody got any ideas about this one

have spent the last couple of hours sitting in bed with sp808 on my lap and manual beside me haven't used 808 for about 18 months so i need to brush up. forget how good this unit sounds (filters, isolators, eq and of course the space echo). have ordered two SPDIF cables and will use this as a fx ...

i understand what your saying i might have to go that way
