Nice to see that you like my video, when I have more time I will make two short videos describing how to mute tracks live while playing your beat (you can mute any track just pressing two buttons at once) and in the second video I'm going to explain how to copy patterns on your pc using compact flash card reader - I used this method in the beat video I made above.

If you want to contact me, get me at [email protected]

Welcome to the boards. Very nice to see a video that actually shows the real power of the sp-404. Good work. If you want to copy samples and patterns on your sp-404 then you can follow the steps as described in this thread; this way you can copy samples and patterns without the need of an external cardreader on your computer, you can do it all on your sp-404.

Yeah I noticed that post, but for me its easier to use comp. so I don't have re-arrange samples on my sp. just plug the card into pc and copy pattern as much as you like and rename them sequentially so they appear correctly on the sp.

I can drop my 2cents speaking about muting - imho the best effect is to use SUBSONIC to mute samples, because using SUBSONIC (knob2 = far right, knob3 = far right) and tuning knob3 you can change volume of the all samples selected with REMAIN button at once - so you can have all selected samples to sound quieter and control them live.

Peace,
Olby

I use the isolator effect for that, with pretty much the same result.

I plan to do some new sh later, thanks for the support bros!

speaking about those russian samples, I live in ex-ussr region and here everyone throws vinyls out like it is some kind of a disease, so I connect with lots of people and get them usually for free.
