I need something long and narrow to hold multiple units.

Like welding 6 music stands together...

Use a table or a stand or what?

What do you use as a stand for your equipment? I've got drum machines and samplers and my turntables and they're a mess. I'd like something more sensible than my old dining room table and the space on top of my amp. Maybe something with two levels.

I was thinking of using a keyboard stand with a ...

Try the Peavey KB series. They aren't too expensive, they have multiple inputs, and you can plug anything into them. I have a KB4, which has a 15" speaker and three inputs, including XLR ins and outs. It's beefy enough that I play bass live using that amp with a pedal pre-amp. At home I use it for ...

Is it a question of importing a sample that is -exactly- 4 beats at 133 BPM?

Or do I need to add/delete from my sample on the SP-404?

Either way, there has to be a hardware sampler ...

samples -really- won't autosync?

I have a lot of equipment all running off a single midi clock: a couple electribes, MicroKorg, drum machine, my laptop, and my newish SP-404. Everybody gets along. Any pattern I start stays right in the pocket across all devices. Patterns on the SP-404 work fine as well.
