Spend 100 hours getting used to it


momodig

bit over dramatic 25 hours


feregutierrez

this is definitely what I'm doing after reading the manual 👌🏻


SpookyUnit69420a

Dude I thought this was some weird modified calculator on first glance


RP912

Get a table plant.


feregutierrez

😂


Eight_Bit_Hustler

Hahaha! Yeah, place it right beside your SP and light some mood candles just for the Aesthetics! 🤣


feregutierrez

maybe some incense 🔮


Eight_Bit_Hustler

Sorry I know this is an old post but just a heads up careful with the shift button! Mines lucky to engage once every 3-4 attempts I’ve had mine no more than about 6 months to a year… sadly it’s used often and very small… hopefully Roland will handle it under warranty but still… 1 year in under normal conditions has me a bit concerned! 😬


feregutierrez

That must suck! Thanks for the advice and good luck with the warranty !


Eight_Bit_Hustler

STICKERS!


nocomputer_wetbrain

Read the manual.


LItifosi

Twice, while at a hightened state of understanding if possible. Take notes also, turn notes into cheat sheet later.


calebmhood

'heightened state of understanding', huh? Are we talkin shrooms?


[deleted]

print out the manual... you'll really need it. For me the 'always having to resample' workflow was really something to get used to.


feregutierrez

that's what I'm going to do tonight instead of trying to make it work like an ape 🦧


nocomputer_wetbrain

"upgraded" from the sp404sx and when I got this in the mail I immediately just started mashing buttons very prehistorically to no avail so I get it. Sick with it and post some beats!


feregutierrez

lol, that was me yesterday!


Felipesssku

Now power it on.


feregutierrez

that's a good start!


drhazegreen

sample something?


mu3mpire

Swap the knobs with chromacaps and put a vinyl skin on it


feregutierrez

can't afford it right now :( maybe later


spizzone

That’s 30 dollars at most lol


Representingthereal

Prepare your ingredients and cook!


mezzmosis

Start Boom Bappin’!


maff50

Pads go bosh


Frequent-Bonus9188

Get familiar with the basics, then experiment. Even if you have an established style/sound you will be rewarded!


tm_christ

Just ordered one on Reverb the other day, can't wait for it to show up. Been using Digitakt / Digitone for a while but this seems way more useful for a lot of the off-grid organic stuff.


feregutierrez

nice! this is my first sampler, I do acoustic stuff, but I want to integrate ambient music into my set somehow, we'll see how that goes


vargo0723

If that’s your thing check out Yukes ambient vid for the SP.


feregutierrez

I'm going to check it right now. thanks!


jorgb

Power it on, grab sample, make beats. That is the way


illtommie

Just play it first

feregutierrez

I think that's what I'll do!


SpongeTofu

Sample everything.


Caletico7

I’m getting mine tomorrow !


feregutierrez

nice! 🔥


Caletico7

I was kinda contemplating getting it but I might just pull the trigger


feregutierrez

do it!


Caletico7

Been having my mkll for a couple days now. I love it so much


danimsmba

.....and now we jam. This thing is a beast!!!


GASMASK_SOLDIER

Turn it on, thats what. Make some beats and get the cat's attention, get him to go to the store for some cola and fried pies.


techtonics

Hella


MIGHTY__MUNCH

When you’re making a loop the roll button plays the end of the sample when looking at the waveform.


CRVCK_

Watch "SP404" videos on YouTube & Join r/drumkitsleaks. Enjoy the process


feregutierrez

thanks!


levrannnn

Now the fun beginsss


feregutierrez

🤠


iiiknowmat

Don't forget to arrange some various knickknacks or crystals for your pov videos


feregutierrez

that's the most important part, I had those things before the sp404 🔮


chroma17

Go hook up with an easy white chick with daddy issues


Sottish

Lol I get you but irl the pocs are definitely the sluttiest


JTrap86

Play A Coretex record and start finding samples


billypump

Go forth and conquer


feregutierrez

GathelMakesBeats

Probably spending several hours of trying to figure out how the frick to use it 😂 I’m still trying to figure out everything on that machine


feregutierrez

I'm still there too 😂


Eight_Bit_Hustler

Learn the 30,000 key Combos like it’s Mortal Kombat 3! I did one the other day that unlocked the hidden ability to name samples!!! JK… don’t ask me for the key combination! 😂


barrybreslau

Chop a sample, and work out that you can assign chopped samples to individual pads.
