HEY,
I WAS WONDERING HOW THE SWING WAS ON THE 606 AND, CAN IT BE ADJUSTED TO YOUR LIKING.
THANKZ

Re: SWING
The swing on the 606 has adjustable swing settings. It's by percentage only.

Re: SWING
Swing on the 606 is great. I find that 60-75 % is the swing range for me. Swing can be applied to each track (there are 4)... so you can swing some things and not others, which is nice.
Re: SWING
If you wanna go au-naturale & play your drums/whatever without quantize the 606 goes alright. It'll place your hits down to a 1/96th of a quarter note (pretty sure that's the same as the other SPs & way more fine than some DAWs like Reason).
Another great thing about the 606's swing is it goes from 0% right through to 100% & intervals to swing can be set to 8th & 16th notes. Only one swing setting per pattern but that's no biggie. This thing swings like a pendulum.

Re: SWING
Reason's sequencer resolution is variable and goes way beyond 96PPQ

Re: SWING
Really? Damn, I'm still on version 5. In that one you can't have notes quantized past 64ths & I always though that turning off the snap only went to 96ths. Doesn't seem to get much finer than that in obsolete versions, but it's not like there's much real-world use for anything finer than 32nds.
Re: SWING
Still unshure as to how to use the sp606 swing to get that mpc 60 bonk.
but i'm practicing, I noticed a classic bonk beat sounded weird at first
with no swing, and the roll is useless for stylized drum patterns.
im talking that ba donk a donk. It will come soon, just been playing
to much blues on my guitar, cant really get back into hiphop, oh jees.
I crank the swing to 65% on the hat kick and snare, to get a little
shuffle going, then i play guitar over it for a super swinging rock and
roll vibe. then i delete the drum track and have a super pimpin guitar
track.
trying to get back into hiphop, im trapped in a retro guitar phase, its
trippin the shit out of me, everytime i try putting the bugger down
I learn new scales and progressions.
nail polish is a thinking mans drug.
