Roland SP404 MK II Beginners Workflow Guide

Such a great Tut! Thank you! I'd send a Tip, but used all my money on this device😂

This doesn't take phono like the other models?.

Wow i want one now. Easy standalone and dynamic system perfect for what i want to do

Very good tutorial :) best video I just got mine today and I am very lost but this video is helping me a lot :D thank you!

Mine will be here in 3 days!! I've ordered how to videos from SampleKings in the past. Glad to see y'all are still doing y'all thang!!

Hey boss, you know I always appreciate you, Would you suggest pairing this with the motif es6? Warmest regards

I would’ve liked if you would’ve spent 10 minutes instead of 10 seconds on the external input pad settings. It’s one of the most important things to get right - gain staging. There is the volume of the source, there’s the input levels, and there’s the main volume out of the SP. All have to be calculated to get the optimal performance and sampling levels right and to avoid clipping.

Man. Thank you for this video

I'm 14mins and just wanted to say Thank You!!!

ypppp thanks for the hard work man! this helps the learning cuve so i can get up and running.

How do I get samples to play back through both left and right sides?

Thanks one mill! Appreciated! Huge help!

This has absolutely been the single best video I've watched yet. Coming from an MPC 1000 background, it's 6 days into my journey with this machine and tonight is the first time it's really clicked - thank you!!

A Master Class! Thanx a lot!!!

Thank you for this well-thought-out and straight-to-the-point tutorial!

thank you for this! your tutorial is especially informative and well structured :)

You are the best!!! thank you bro!!

There is not enough thanks!!!
For sharing a so valuable info.
Thank you for great explanation.

Hi there, can you sample the mic through that input? Thanks.

the speaker is connected in the headphone output? i dont speak english very well. i get lost. i have a portable speaker with jack 3.5

You have helped me out in the past with the triton and 1000 going to buy this. Who have you made music for? It seems like you all the way in the business

Incredible! Thank you so much.

Hi,

Thanks for all your contents ! I see many videos on the MPCS but nothing on the Akai Force. Do you plane to do an instructional video on this machine?

Just got mine last week. Can't wait to sit in front of it and watch this video.

Thank you for this informative video! And I like your paintbrush.

Thank You for the Video! You have a Great Radio Type of Voice.

Seriously helpful. Thanks!

Can someone explain me what length in bars means?

You got the Bose speaker too! I bought one off a street fella and the thing ended up so nice my gf ended up buying the next model up but for size and weight the little one we got is by far better. Man you might recall me crying about the MPC when I was learning it, I had a hell of a meltdown or two or three, but the 404 has been love from day one. I like how it can connect to the ipad and the cables all workout to not be a mess for once😱 and everything just works and it feels good, its everything I love about Korg Gadget, its highly evolved but not convoluted. That said I ran into a problem with the sample format I chose so I gotta go through and upsample if that is the word. Gotta move up from 16bit to 32bit cuz it says “unsupported” on most my custom samples 🤡 But I still love it.

Nice! Thanks I just got mine yesterday

Also do you notice any latency with the output of the Bose speaker when plugging directly in like?

I don’t know who designs these workflows obviously not musicians shit has the intuitiveness of a rock

Massively informative! Thanks a bunch, man!

i will conquer this machine if it's the last thing i do

Roland owes you money. Great work, I know how to use this thing now, thank you.

Thanks!

great video! theres so many things to learn on the new model

How do you mono a song?

VERY HELPFUL

Hell yeah, nicely done! this is huuuuuge!

God of tutorials.. 🔥🔥🔥

Oh wow you hit all my buttons in the first 30 secs - bass player, batteries, cables, and most of all speaker -- it's really hard to find a decent zero latency speaker, they all have dsps in them that seem to suck time even with aux in.

Right on time mines is coming tomorrow 👊

I’ve enjoyed this video. Very helpful towards learning this machine. Awesome explanations!
