Which SP's Allow Sampling WHILE Playing a Pad?

Post by medearis »

Word.

I love my 404SX but there is ONE thing that really furkin' gets me... I cannot sample while I'm listening to a pad/sample. Huge buzz kill as I abuse the Audio Tracks in my MPC all the time.

Point blank - any of the SP's that allow you to sample while playing?


Thanks y'all

yes and the sp303 too (same Boss family :) )
commercial wrote: Zoom st224 can do it like ella said, it can also sample with the pattern sequencer going,
yes, well the 224 is an hyper underrated machine, a poor mpc/sp1200 etc it can also resample its own patterns, copy pads from patterns to patterns , it has a sort of akai "16 levels", it has real pitch etc
ps (4 weak points of the machine: 1) doesn't have a loop mode -there is a way to loop pads anyway, but...- 2)just one minute sampling per pattern...3) the delay doesn't feedback enough -so no Dakim method...4) same sequencer "by hand" as for the sp303...)
saying that i love this machine, some year ago i created also a -working!- battery pack for it with some Head of the 224 forum (almost dead forum?)...it was ok also for the sp303...times...

On my SP-808 I can put any sound icluding a pad or external recording on a track in the playlist. With the playlist track I can have it off, light on green which will play the track or light on orange to play and bounce the track. When sampling its nice to be able to listen to a sequence like my sequenced samples on the playlist while recording the drums or something on a pad and either have the sample sequence be resampled with the drums ( orange, bounce) or to just use it as a reference and not be sampled with the drums I would be recording(green, play but no bounce). If that makes any sense, it very useful for having a reference as for a weird tempo or complex patterns that are not exactly in sync with a quantization.
I know most people don't like the 808 due to the Zip drive and the wav converter barely works on windows and not on intel based macs, but I find the sp-808 quite useful and easy to work with. I like it and use it as my main piece of equipment.

So the SP303 and the SP505 can both do that, eh?
Most excellent. <insert super villain cackle here>

EDIT: Got it figured out. What I meant to ask was "Which SP allows you to resample while the EXT SOURCE button was engaged".

Thanks y'all.
