SPV, Welcome to the custom screens game. I’ve avoided spamming you with my services for months now. Indeed, these are fun to make if you have the skills. Keep them beats coming. 👍🏾✌🏾✊🏾
I've been binging and benefiting from this guy's stuff as I just scored big time on a mint 404 Mk II. One thing to add is that under the utility/general tab, you can change your default startup "load project" from "last" to any number of them. At least as of version 4.05 you can. I bet it was not available when he made this video otherwise he would have said, no doubt. So with 4.05 you can boot up to your custom stuff regardless of where you've shut down if you've set it to boot to the project that displays your custom boot-up screen.
How do the screen saver files work? I understand one can upload up to 16 per project, but could they be used as a 16 frame animation? Is that how the stiky figure person ridding the wave work in the custom screensaver? It will be so dope to make a small custom animation.
Your videos are very helpful. I have just got a 404 this Christmas and I'm a complete beginner. Something I would like an example of also is a good way to organise a sample library, should I do it by BPM and should I store loops separately to one shots etc.
It is possible to do this via the sp404 mk2 app without ejecting the sd card. Export your project change the screen saver files and then import it back again
You should do some lives featuring the SP-404MK2 and use time stamps on your tutorials. I found your channel via a shout out from another music content creator AVEMCREE. you have some of the best SP tutorials out there in the RU-vid universe...well done mate
Hi, great. I bought your pack but i cant see any existing screensaver in the project file. When i open the picture folder from any project, its empty. Do you have an idea? Thanks in advance. Best, d :)
Thanks a lot for the support! It could be a number of reasons. Have you actually dropped any recordings onto the pads yet? I would suggest giving the guide on the Roland website a read too (its about half way down this page) articles.roland.com/ultimate-guide-customizing-the-sp-404-mkii/
Yeah it is quite convoluted at the moment. It would be easier if you could just drop all your graphics on the SD card and maybe select which ones you want to use in one of the option menus
Thanks for the guide and the graphs! One qustion: My SP keeps showing ''SP-404'' before showing the 2 custom graphs. Any idea why this is showing up? I deleted all screensavers and booted the SP up with only 2 graphs on the SD Card but no difference.
Hmm that’s odd. I didn’t need to do that after I updated to make this work. Maybe try formatting the SD card with the SP again if you can afford to or reinstalling the latest software version
Honestly probably not a bad idea to get you name or brand out y’all, if anyone can make it play something simple like Tetris now that’s a Big ass GameboyS! 😂
Hey man, are you willing to a do a custom one for me ? I'll pay the price for it im horrible with micro art , but yeah lmk I'd greatly appreciate the response , going g to buy the whole pack this Friday 👍,
If I not buy I still try Mae 404 dus knowin dem yalls got my back creators fa da 404at use . Give it up trouble times of religion politics and education to every body . Set down ole robber Barron material grabbers it's the death that's come to takes ya. A better love
