Re: SP-404 MK2?

Aight so for everyone saying "the photos of the 404mk2 look photoshopped/manipulated, and photoshopping/manipulating an image makes the subject fake, therefore the 404mk2 is fake" (or any variation of this argument):

Re: SPBB 321

Yo sorry for being inactive. Got mad busy with work and just got my reminder to set up the poll. I’m at work rn so might take a little bit to sneak it in.

Also not sure when the links went dead but looks like the account was deleted, no idea how long that’s been going on.

How to resample part of a pattern. It's short but works.

Video: https://youtu.be/o3Ih9Pg0FH4

Also posted to the SP404 subreddit.

Disclaimer: This method only gets you about a second of resample time. But, if used well, you could have a quantized loop to use with the resample method, or you could use it in the sequencer and free up tracks for other ...

Re: Secrets to making more "outside the box" drum loops?

I've been really messing with hihat "velocity" lately, IE take 1 hat sample and copy it to 3 pads, going down in volume with each copy, also shortening each copy kind of at random or slightly trimming the beginning off of each of them (different amounts).
