I'm looking for some common techniques for a dirty sound.. I have the Sp606 and I feel it's alittle on the clean side, I would like to dirty it up some. Now I understand peepz don't what to shed out their secrets, I'm not asking for that, I'm just asking to share some ideas on dirtying up the sound.. I know it comes down to what you sample, but any type of effects that can help aid in this goal I'm trying to achieve?

vinyl sim effect on the SP's, track it to a cassette and back again, sample at lower bitrate....

Thanks man

use the lofi effect or, record in "long" and add vinyl sim. Just the compressor. turn the other 2 down.

You can resample a sound over and over. Every copy is slightly more degraded than the last, so after you've done it a bunch (like 10 or more times), you'll have a sample that's pretty crusty.

You could also try making a beat, play it through some speakers, and use a mic to re-record the sound coming out of the speakers. That will introduce all kinds of noise and dirt into the sound, sometimes it has a nice effect to it.

lo-fi-effect & guitar amp simulator effect & what the others have mentioned, i know you have those 2 on the 606... then warm it up by recording to cassette, then sample back to your 606... the ''guitar amp simulator'' on the 606 is sick & overlooked, don't forget to try that...

Thanks everyone

for my drums(on the 606) I resample them thru the LOFI efx and set the bit rate at 8, sounds like sp 12 drums
