Roland SP-404MKII Creative Sampler/Editor

Quality, bit of hardware, struggled a wee bit when first starting with it, as I am used to working on my KO2. But now with the help of youtube it's all making sense. The screen and the three top knobs make trimming your own samples so easy.

Using the guitar through it for the effects is a amazing bonus.

Top notch piece of gear. Learning to use basic functions is straightforward after reading the manual, the in depth advanced features can be difficult but a good challenge. The strengths of this device I found is to think of the device as an instrument rather than just a sample player.

Le SP404 est un outil de creation fantastique, les possibilités sont juste dingues. J’ ai vraiment été surpris de la qualité des effets sur source externe... Il y a 1000 façon de l utilisé, bref c’est genial! Merci aussi à Bax pour leur tres bon service. 😉

Super, rien à dire de négatif pour mon utilisation simple , une prise en main facile, banque de sons assez éclectique!
Un sampleur classique que je suis contente d'avoir.
Léger à transporter fonctionne sur pile et secteur, très autonome et se marie bien avec Logic Pro et Ableton Live je vais essayer de tester si il peut se synchroniser avec mes autres logiciels.

Kocht deze SP als een kerstcadeau voor mezelf bij Bax Brugge en ben extreem tevreden over mijn aankoop. Blij ook dat de functies en de workflow leren zeer vlot verliep aan de hand van YT video’s, zeker gezien het mijn eerste sampler is. De machine heeft mij ondertussen opgeslorpt, ik loop voortdurend te dagdromen over drumbreaks choppen en 70s psych loops opdiepen. Toffe, toffe, toffe hobby bij. Het was trouwens de moeite waard om naar de winkel te gaan, ik kreeg duidelijke antwoorden op mijn vragen, fijn team dat daar rondloopt. Merci!

Echt top! Zit te genieten van de SP404 MKII. Goede kwaliteit, stevig.

Ik zou aanraden om de pad sensitivity aan te passen (Mijn settings: LOG. Threshold - 1, Gain - 10, Trig Span - 5).

Verder ook top met de Roland desktop app.

Heel veel plezier ermee gehad tot nu toe.
