SP-404 with Arduino MIDI Effects triggers

Hi
Im considering using an SP-404 in an art installation Im building.
I dont know what this sampler is capable of and would like some advice before I purchase. Im basically interested in the effects it can put over the samples.

MIDI events will come from the Arduino Microcontroller into the SP-404.

I want to know if the effects can be controlled via MIDI?

The SP-404 will be out of view and sealed in a box so I want to be able to trigger the samples and controllable effects via MIDI only.
Can this be done?

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Nope

recommend downloading the manuals for various samplers to find out the features..

Guess Ill have to look elsewhere. Maybe the MPC 500.

or maybe consider used sp-404 + kaoss pad 3 or similar. then all could be done from your arduino via midi =)

I would avoid the MPC simply because it hardly has any effects

Using a separate effects device is a decent idea..

Have you considered using a netbook/similar?

But it doesn't seem to have Midi however, (but it looks/sounds cool)

But this should be what you need
