Mr.Acosta might not have the best rep on this board if you review some previous posts he has made. I believe it can all be resolved as a matter of miscommunication, but when you're in a perceived position of power you have to be impeccable with your word. Something I myself didn't quite grasp until recently. Plus it seems CPU is just a trickster in the name of fun.

How is it that I don't have the best rep on this board? Anything that had to do with Roland not providing something they had said has nothing to do with me or my reputation.

I dont work for Roland on a full-time basis anymore and havent worked for them in over a year.

Im strictly a freelance sound design and product specialist now. I work with various companies in the music industry and still do some sound work for Roland but i have nothing to do with the sales or development of their products anymore.

The 404 , 404 sx , 555 all have pitch mfx which allow you to tune samples up and down and then re-sample. The only sampler that has true linear tuning per partial pad is the MV series and the sampler on the Fantom G and MC-808 & 909.

If your looking at just the Roland line of samplers.

If I was unclear I apologize Mike, I have nothing against you. I was merely trying to give the situation context for the newer folks on the board.

so if you dont work for roland , then why peddle products that have nothing to do with the sp series, im not trying to be a dick but your video really didnt seem to fit our demographic mang, you would probably have better luck with your computer snake oil on the future producers forum, dont clog our forum with spam

hi mike
the BOSS sp202 and the Roland sp808 make the "pitch tuning"...the BOSS sp505 has a sort of "pitch shifting scale" function (like the Roland vp9000)...

the other boss/roland SP series got only the pitch shifting fx as you said (but no tuning...)

@ Euclid

Its all good man no worries :D

@ Ellaguru

True all though
The sp202, sp505 and sp808 are all discontinued, i was just giving him more current models that are a tad bit easier to come across. ( except mc909 )

@ Sleeps Numb

If you notice in the post i said it makes a great add-on as a SAMPLING SOURCE.

Your " demographic " is a person that SAMPLES on hardware. Not sure about you but ill sample from any good source no matter where it comes from. So a specific plug-in tailored for kick drums & Percussion Hits would seem like a great sampling source for me to create original sounds for my SP not " snake oil ".

Sometimes you have to think outside the box. This is the Production Techniques section right ?

I didn't really look for too long, but it looks cool synth for shaping/generating drum hits so that's useful to people here. Plus we should all take a second to realize that this forum is cool because we help each other make music without the stress of day to day society.
