Great and thorough explanation, Mike. I have a Sample Pad and have been thinking of upgrading to the Sample Pad Pro. Your review was very helpful. Thanks, man! -Marc
you all probably dont give a damn but does any of you know a method to get back into an Instagram account?? I was dumb lost the login password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me!
@Yahir Rohan thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Jessie, I understand that the first production issues had a slight problem but they sorted it with a software modification. You can alter both the sensititivity and volume of each pad. One thing that I cant remember covering in any depthin the video is that you cant assign TWO sounds to each pad. But to do this you have to set it so that one sound triggers when you hit the pad 'softly' and the other when you hit the same pad "harder". Its quite tricky to manage - especially playing live and it is possible that if youpit too many dounle soiunds on the set of pads that the 'soft' sample on one pad , triggers when you hit another pad very hard. But I mean VERY hard. I have had very few issues with cross talk. Then it was because my home made samples were not of a consistant quality so I had to mess about with the triggering sensitity and volume to make the sound as loud as I wanted while playing and hence causes some triggering of neighbouring pad because they were set at lower threshold. But none of this has caused any embarrasment on stage and once you realise it happened, you can after the gig adjust the sensitivities of the pads so get around it. You can set different pad sensitivities for each 'kit'. So if you find you do get cross talk on one kit it doesnt mean all kits will have the same issue. .. I would end by saying that this has been and still is a great addition to my set up .. Get one , you wont regret it,
On the pedal steel lead, the first time you hit pad 1 you got a phrase, then later you went back and hit pad 1 and got another phrase. How did that work?
No I have different phrases on different pads. So probably hit different pads not same one. HOWEVER, theorectically you can have 2 different sounds assigned to the same pad... but you have to then alter the velocity levels of each of the 2 sounds so that if you hit pad gently , sound A plays if you hit it harder the sound B plays. Ive not been able to get that to work for me because the 'quiet' hit also make the sound play quiet so cant hear it above the din of the band LOL
excellent video. I'm looking for a Pad that can play loops while I'm paying other instruments on the go. best of all it's price. Roland and Yamaha's Pads are too expensive.
sideshowdrummer yes thats right. But my video is designed to show people who are thinking of buying one what it sounds like because the manufactures havent done it themselves. I make videos on equipment that wish i had been able to see before I bought the product myself. Ive found even downloading user manuals before buying a product can be a bit confusing as they are not very well written. I try to overcome this by trying to explain things simply.

excellent run through of the sample pad pro, thanks!
Wow! Thx for the intensive explanation. I was looking for this info... and you gave it all. Thx!

@Yahir Rohan it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my account :D
@Eli Edwin No problem :D

'hi cowbell, low cowbell, hi cowbell, low cowbell....bit odd' hahaha great vid!
How is the pad sensitivity/responsiveness on the Sample Pad Pro? Any problem with pad cross talk (adjacent pads triggering inadvertently)? Thanks.
