Re: Resampling adjustments

I haven't had much experience with the limiter, but have you tried turning the original level down using start/end/level button?

Styleflip blank psd template for 404sx?

Hi team,
Anyone happen to have a copy of the photoshop template from styleflip for the SX they'd be willing to share? I'm in Australia, so want to play with design before putting down cash plus shipping just to get a template.

Cheers!

Setting up sampling workflow on Mackie 802-vlz3 help me!

I have a bunch of sample sources that I want to route through the mixer into this chain: MPC1000>KAOSS PAD 3>SP404SX Then back into the mixer to allow me to monitor on a pair of KRKs and headphones. I have read the manual, but I'm not quite understanding how to get this set up. I don't think an aux ...

Re: Travelling drum library 404sx

Thanks. Yeah I think I'll stick with sampling off the smartphone. I have a folder based audio player app, but it plays the whole folder by default. Any recommendations for a player that will audition individual wavs without having to put each one in a separate folder?

Travelling drum library 404sx

So I've just got my hands on a 404 SX which is going to be the portable beat maker while I'm travelling/want to play in the sunshine. I want to have a few drum sounds on board to accompany loops/textures found in the field. Thinking of dedicating the last 4 banks to this (one bank each of kicks ...

Re: sp404sx with a power bank?

i bought one of these cables: m

but it didn't work :/ is it wrong cable?

yes it's the wrong cable. As I said above, you need to switch the polarity of the plug. The SP needs the centre (hole) of the power plug to be negative, and the outside to be positive. I think you can get an adapter to do ...

Re: sp404sx with a power bank?

Search "battery pack" on these forums and you'll find a bunch of info. You may need to reverse the polarity of the plug, as the SP is centre negative. Most generic 9v stuff is centre positive.
