gotta love being able to watch cats from all over the world make a beat from their home using various equipment and showing us how they do it , inspiration aint the word
so theres a direct input jack that you just record the vinyl thru? Also, do you export onto your computer as mp3? does it give u each particular noise or just the project as a whole? I may have to get me one of these.. by the looks of it theyre pretty hard to find tho.
It's actually got stereo phonos for input and output. You can record either a song or individual samples onto your computer using the outputs. Here in the UK they're not too difficult to find. You could also consider the sp404, which is like its big brother.
Yeah you can move a sample from one pad to another. Or you can use the resample button and copy paste the sample to a new pad. You can even add effects and resample the effected sample to a new pad. You can even use the resample button and play a beat on several pads and record that beat to a new pad.
+Nicholas Sambrano I used the SP's stereo outputs. First, I turned down the volume on the samples and recorded just the drum patterns into Logic on track one. I recorded 8 bars of the drum beat and then looped it in Logic. Then I muted the drums and recorded the sample patterns on track two, looped them up and added some more elements in Logic etc.
Thanks man. Yeah I really like it. It makes samples sound niiiiice. It has some limitations but they make you think creatively. No swing only straight up quantise, but there are ways to get it swinging. I also like small portable stuff. I was thinking about an Akai S950 but you can't chuck that one in your bag.
+Sahan Jayasuriya I only sampled it once. Then I selected a section of the sample and resampled it to a new pad (using the resample button). Then I selected a different section of the sample and resampled it to a new pad. I did that a few times until I ended up with several sections/chops, each on its own pad.
They are from an EDAN record yeah. I made a new beat from chopping up the drums and then used a mic to record some hand claps and layered them on top. As long as you make a dope beat, I wouldn't worry too much about whether you sample your drums from soul, hip hop, techno, country or whatever. MF DOOM has sampled KRS-ONE's drums before. As long as you're creative and use your samples to make something that sounds good, it's all good.
No man. That's fucked up. You don't sample your own genre. It's just not done. Especially in Hip-Hop. Doesn't matter if it sounds dope. You didn't make them sound dope. You used someone else's shit.
