Easy way to create sub-bass from any sample

I imagine this works a little similarly to the old trick of using a super-resonant high-pass filter...


1. Put the SBF effect on your sample

2. Change the Type to either SBF5 or SBF6. I noticed that SBF6 is a little bit more saturated and creates a small amount of extra high-end artifacts (it kind ...

Re: Compatible Compact Flash Cards

...it's a very picky machine.

I found through some research that a lot of machines are picky in that they can only support up to certain read/write speeds. The idea is that those Cloudisk cards can play by those rules with their slower speeds, but it's possible they may not account for any other ...

Re: Compatible Compact Flash Cards

I found cards by a brand named Cloudisk that have the lowest speeds I can find (around 10-20mb/s), and have not had a single problem since on any piece of equipment. https://a.co/d/2MdBgnk

He didn't specify, but do you think it was an OG, A, or mk2?

Metallic Wood-Grain SP-404 OG (what kind of damage is this?)

Back after a long journey of bullshit... long story short, I retail-therapied a 404A, then a 404mk2, and now a 404OG. I'm giving the 404A to a friend in need, but the 404mk2 I'm using standalone and the 404OG is getting paired with my MPC1000 (and also standalone).

Anyways... while shopping around ...

Re: sp404og loop clip

Maybe try resampling again with a compressor with a tiny bit of attack?

Re: Known Flaws of the Sp404MK2

what are the known flaws of the unit ? Why ?

I don't have a mk2 so someone will have to back this up/confirm if it was fixed, but I read somewhere in here that there's a noticeable lag when you finish recording a sample (not sure about resampling). Like 3 seconds long, which is a lot longer than ...

No interest in the D-Beam personally.
Weren't you asking about a touch wah a while back? Would that function the same with the d-beam, or were you thinking more like a ribbon controller input? Or like a pedal wah?

And man, I think it looks fucking great (especially in that colour) like some retro mad-scientist's laboratory equipment or summat, or perhaps something you'd find as part of the control panel in a nuclear ractor!!!

Re: SPBB #347 Poll

1st: #8 had me laughing right off the bat because it sounds like a billy woods version of Money Folder, but I really enjoyed it. The mix and sound layering were pretty good, and the beat managed to stay interesting without losing the overall feel

2nd: #6 had an amazing atmosphere and sound ...

Re: Resampling from an External Source



but again that would be better done on like a 4 track?

I've considered getting a Zoom R8 (or dusting off my conversation-piece BR900) to use with a 404A for proper track management, but part of me doesn't want to stray too far away from the SP workflow or lug it around frankly. I'd say it's ...

Resampling from an External Source

I've seen this phrase thrown around a lot lately, (looking at you SP-USER :lol: ) but I must admit I'm not as enlightened as many of you to know how this could fully be utilized...

What kind of use cases would this allow? The only thing that I can really think of would be for layering audio from ...
