[jeyoner]

[jeyoner]

gwt a sp-404sx with the new cards and you would be straight . i just bought a numark pro tt2 turntable and a gemini mixer and i was wondering how to connect the sp to my dj rig for sampleling off vynil

[drewzletube]

turntable's audio outs --> mixer audio in; mixer audio outs --> SP404 audio in

[drcredeur]

nice!!!!!

[ollie9844]

hey i was wondering if you could plug this into a idj2.

and can you only use the memory card?

[drewzletube]

it's a sampler, for constructing songs from sampled fragments (ie kick drum, snare drum, bass hits, piano stabs). you could route your DJ rig through it as an effects box if you wanted.

[ishadan]

wicked stuff,want to get one.But is it easy to understand for a complete beginer?and how much should i pay?where is the best site to get from?Any help would be brill.dan

[xxxfarsixxx]

hey guys i just bought SP-404 .. and i purchased the CF card as 4 Giga .. is it compitable with it or not .. i didnt opened it yet .. but i heared its not compitale in 4 giga capacity .. help me out ... ty

[drewzletube]

not compatible

[PompousLummox]

The limit is 1GB

[mordsgaudimachen]

Its not my Style, but Good work! Im curious why so many people are into Slow music there days!

[andersersand]

haha...

[gonzalezsickone]

Slow music is to get blown wit son but i agree this guy did a good job.

[RWS402]

pretty rad, man

[japajew6]

did you make everything (tones, beat) on your computer first? or were you able to make everything on the 404?

[drewzletube]

hi japajew6, i made this whole song on my Palm with an app called Bhajis. i then exported the separate channels into the SP404 for performance. you *could* make something similar using only the 404 and imported tones/drum sounds, but that is not how this was done. thanks for watching : )

[OktoberOne]

Very gooooood!!! The better track with only SP404 of youtube!!! Good work...

[imagiag]

hello, can it automatically loop just recorded sample, so that you could live record to different pads, and then start switching them on/off? or need to record everything in advance and then just sequence?

[drewzletube]

hi; the 404 can't record loops while the sequencer is running, so all the sounds are prepared in advance. :)

[imagiag]

thanx for quick reply, 555 seems to be what i need then

[imagiag]

actually i just ordered 404 too ;)) the 555 was too expensive for me, and i can live without live sampling, thanx again for your video!

[drewzletube]

no worries man :) you'll enjoy the 404, it's a great machine

[SillySquidprod]

What memory card do you use?

What can you use?

I can't find any of the brands it requires?

[drewzletube]

I use a Sandisk 512 meg card. The largest card the 404 will take is 1 gig. Roland lists some recommended models/brands on p50 of the manual. hope you get it working, peace

[rissacher]

how much are those???

i think im gonna get one

nice vid

[drewzletube]

thanks for watching

not sure how much one will cost - check your local music shops

peace

[benrox26]

i think about $200 USD

[robotshark1]

AWESOME cant wait till my 404 comes.

this is dope cuts . sp forums

props

[drewzletube]

thanks man : )

you'll love the 404

[2kbuhr]

can you record a whole song like that? just jamming?

i am really interested in one of these

[drewzletube]

the SP itself won't record the jam, you have to record its outputs into your PC, 4-track, tape player or whatever you have. thanks for watching :) peace

[2kbuhr]

oh thanks that was very helpful :)

[jd91dc]

can you save it as a wav and put it back on the sp404 for live use

[drewzletube]

if you record it to something else you can

[radiumrx]

Looks like mad wicked fun would you recommend getting one? Peace (5 stars)

[depletedmind]

i've got one and i would definitly recommend it, its real easy to understand and use plus! it looks cool haha

[cadabraa]

Sounds a bit like a Linkin Park song, but more electronic & underground.

Great style!

[KoalaBones]

drewzle! great work. this is koala form from sp-forums btw.

[orecordings]

5 stars form O-recordings.. Nicely Done maine!

[MonsterCaptain]

THAT is a talented crotch, ladies and gentlemen.

[drewzletube]

haha, i was trying to get the best shot of the SP. i'll use a different perspective for the next vid

___

thanks for all the comments guys : )

[multiman090100]

Cool track, man.

[paul180390]

fucking awesome!

[MPOURNOUZIS]

u drop that sound on the sampler or is it dafault sound?

[drewzletube]

the sounds you hear are isolated sections of a song i wrote on another platform. i then transferred loops from that song into the SP-404 so i could arrange and manipulate them on the fly.

the default sounds the SP-404 comes with are pretty horrible - i deleted them pretty quickly

[deejayteewax]

sick

[Macavich69]

sick jam...love using the 404 live like that.

[klownstyle]

DOPE

[TenThousandFeetTall]

very cool!

[AUTOCHOPP]

5 stars from AUTOCHOPP!!!

[skarim16]

i really like the track! do you make the track in a software and remix it live? or do you use samples and trigger them all while mixing? like how do you the drums and stuff?

[drewzletube]

for this track i have separated the channels from a song i made in Bhajis Loops. then i use the SP-404 to sequence, add effects, add flourishes etc

[succinctbeats]

good stuff! i rock an sp404 as well... they are ossum

[drewzletube]

thanks for the feedback guys :)

rexrhino - i plan to record another take of this track soon; i'm currently trying to figure out the best way to get a clear sound recording with my camera

[vivipedraglio]

awesome!!! 5*

[rexrhino]

It would be nice to get another version of you playing, while recording the outs of the sampler directly. It is a bit distorted and hard to hear in its current state because of the mic recording, but I would really like to hear more.

[cadabraa]

Very nice drewzle
