SP-FORUMS

got one this summer thanks to a tax refund i forgot about. the modem data transfer makes sense to reduce conversion noise. havnt recorded unquantized the buttons seems quite responsive. was making banks from all sorts of samples and trying different things, the stock sounds are good, i exported some ...

thanks for sharing your idea, using 404og at full volume will give you maximum headroom and minimized distortion if you are not using compression, this extra head room allows for deeper and cleaner subsonics, this will also reduce your overall loudness, then adjust the loudness of your subsonic to ...

the tutorials are hard to follow, if a paper manual came with the 8000, then I would have sat down, like any other box, and follow the steps and read the hints. i had an old OS, and couldn't find the manual, so I read, the 8800 and 8000 v3.5 turbo start. which didn't help either much, because the ...

so , when you guys crack the code, will it then be possible to send automated knob motionto the sp 202 ? or only live?

havnt fired up the st224 for a while, but when i was making beats on it, if i has 2 samples, it was very easy to match 2 loops together by pitching the samples, there is a bpm loop match feature where you can match 2 loops , simple easy .

have heard of people complain about something similar on the 404, and have experienced it looping on different things myself, i think it is you need to have an exact start point, and sample untill the end of the loop and then some of the first beat, now that you have the first beat at the end of the ...

is the 404 og supposed to have hum at full volume, and some hiss , only when no samples are playing, i notice it more now then before, not sure if it is from overloading the mic input for cool overdrive sound design. it also hums and hisses with batteries

listen to some old homeys tap the pads, and see how different it is from yours, it is also a joke, for mixing that someone with less technical experience, can have better ears than a fatigued old producer, that uses cookie cutter filter forumlas to balance a mix. there is an auditory illusion that ...

i used to find 5 perfect classic authentic loops, per session and use 1, and forget about the rest, like half an album that works together, then go into digging madness and find to much stuff, to use, then its like a wrench in the gears, i always start a project with some kind of vision, half way ...

right when i pushed post, i realized i got the 8 outs on the 2kxl, and 2500, so if i want to do some fancy shit, i'll do 8 outs into VS880. it will go, mpc to mixer, with paralel DBX maximizer , and then trim the peaks on the mixer and VS880 , Then do some midi kung fu and press play record on vs880.

yo i usually get it done in one take start to finish, even tho i got 6 portable multi tracks, and 2 4 tracks, the 4 track tapes i mostly use for storage, the mfp01 is sort of a piece of junk, mostly because playback is consumer speed, 1.875 inches (4.8 cm) per second,the good thing is you can play ...

use turntable ,mixer and 404 . some times i will need to sample from the mixer, so i dont want to flip flop master out to much, if I need to sample everything then the mixer is going into the SP. doing this live you would need a more complicated but practical aproach,

turntable(CH1)+sp404(ch2 ...

excuse the thread jacking with non resampling snobriety, i thot of a way, since you hate the metronome on, maybe make your own count in, after the factory count in, so you will , wait 4 beats, hear your own count in , then it will help get you in the groove, you can even do 2 or 4 bars warmup count ...

maybe try quantize the first beat, at 4 (QUARTER NOTE)then it will always start, i have different work flow now , that requires a bit more patience than , resampling a few pads together, like midi,syncing stems and loops the old fashion way, but usually always snap everything to the sequencer , so ...

i got a digitech multi fx , need to find a pwer suply , those space reverb videos sound cool. can do big reverb and fx combos on sp too, im trying to minimize clutter, so wont be getting any new fx boxes or rack stuff.
