- If you have ever tried using the lofi button on your SP404sx and found it a little too harsh this video will help you out!
In this one I explain how to use various features of the SP404SX/A to combat the harshness that the lofi button has to it, which will help make your beats sound even sweeter!
Like always if you have any further questions just drop me a comment below!

![How to use Resample to make full lofi hiphop beats [SP404sx/a]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/8xD4ApXCzSQ/mqdefault.jpg)
I got my sp404sx early 2018. I kinda knew what i was about to get into. But your channel might’ve been my main source of knowledge other than sp forum and a couple of interviews with veterans from the beatscene such as Dibia$e. You are definitely helping A LOT pf people. Not just me. I wish you nothing but the best. Much love all the way from Saudi arabia. 🙏🏽
Thanks man! Means a lot. I’m really glad I’m helping people learn about this box!. I used to browse the forums too but they seemed to die off so think it was good timing when I started making videos
You're a King in the SP community, homie. Thanks for all the great tips and advice!
Yo man no problem at all and thanks for that it means a lot. Appreciate it!
Those blacked out buttons are dope as hell
Cheers man yeah they look so much better than stock. Only downside is it’s hard to read them unless you have good light but I have most of the buttons on muscle memory now luckily 😁
Congrats on 10K my friend!!!!!!
Yo man thanks a lot. Looks like it should tick over in the next day or so. Super hyped!
Thanks for the tips!
The Lo-Fi button is one I don't use often because of the harshness, but I'll need to try it out more now :)
Nice one man glad the video showed you something you can use 🔥
I’ve found using the lofi effect on vocals is extremely pleasing. Then doing some resampling add a hpf, some delay and reverb 😁
Nice man, will have to give that a go with some rap samples, thanks for watching!
do you record vocals straight in via mic in or transfer form Computer?
Dude you are sooo close to 10k now! i bet you can reach it in the next few days! Great vid keep it going🔥
Cheers for the support man! Yeah I'm hoping to get there this week maybe we'll see...super excited
OMG THOSE BUTTONS LOOK SOOOO COOOOLLLL!!!!!!!!!!
Cheers man yeah super happy with how my sp looks at the moment!
@@spvidz honestly I don’t know how it would look cooler xD
Yeah, love sampling in lofi but it can be a bit too harsh sometimes lol. A little bit of eqing or filtering does take the edge off. I only have the OG, so once you sample or resample in lofi it stays that way regardless what you do, but it can be fun combining it with other fx afterwards.
I like the wah effect, it´s a little unpredictable but with some tweaking it can really add some interesting texture on lofi samples.
And while it is difficult to do on any SP besides the 202, the classic oldschool trick of recording a sample at a higher tempo, then slowing it down, really brings out that lofi character. It´s really grainy, not always desirable, but that does sometimes get rid of the harshness
Yeah man on that last point about sampling - thats something I'm going to cover soon as its useful for the po-33 as well, love that little trick! I need to start trying to more but sounds like it gives promising results. Interesting to hear about wah as well, i've had a few people say that's their fav...I need to branch out a bit more from isolator, mfx16 etc....!
Hey man, I hope before this year I can buy a 404sx, your channel is really helpfull and I would like to know things to keep in mind before buying a sp, your channel deserves to grow, hope yo get to 10k soon, keep it like that! :)
Yo man yeah it’s so much fun the sp. highly recommended! Cheers for tuning in!
Thanks again man. I always learn something when you post
Glad to hear that man. Appreciate you watching 🔥
Great video bro, I always hesitate on using that function but I'm gonna start incorporating it more! 🙏🏾✊🏾
Nice one man yeah with a bit of tweaking you can get that dope 1200 sound! Gonna try use it a bit more myself
I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT THIS TOPIC YESTERDAY THANK YOU
No problem man! 🙌
Very relatable. Nearly every time I have a question about something it shows up in my sub box 12-48 hours later..
I'm sure you've answered this already, but where did you get those knobs? They seem perfect! (Congrats on almost 10k too✌️)
I’ve got a load I need to put in my store just being hella lazy about it! Keep your eyes peeled for the drop 🤩
@@spvidz 😯🌟😄
You can turn it into LoFi without resampling?? On the OG 404, thats impossible. I guess the lofi option started as a tool for saving memory space but with SD cards and basically unlimited memory, it wasnt necessary anymore but still, they decided to keep it as a stylistic option.
Yeah man you can just pop it on and off kinda like a toggle switch on any pad! Yeah it will have been a lower sample rate back in the day to save memory you’re right. Useful little button on the sx/a
It does sound different when you sample in lofi vs when you just toggle lofi on
@@bliss3174 thats weird but makes sense somehow :D
Bitumen Boy even weirder, if you a record a track in as lofi but then record that recording process (before the recording is finished and is saved toa. Pad) on another sp it will sound different than the original (finished) recording
Idk if that makes sense but basically 3 different variation of a lofi sound from the lofi toggle
@@bliss3174 my guess is that the audio can be either downsampled live (when you toggle it during playback or monitoring during recording) or when saved as a file. But its just a guess.
Didn’t the OG 404 have a lofi MFX with tweakable parameters much like the 303?
I’m not too sure man you could be right. Never owned an og so not sure. The 555 has it I know that!
I have the OG, it´s just MFX 14 Bitcrush, same functions, just different naming. It does have the separate lofi button, which basically reduces the sample rate. However, unlike the SX/A, once you reduce the sample rate it will stay at that sample rate. Even if you resample into standard, it will keep the same sound quality
@@VibesAntagonist ah, I think given that I would definitely prefer the SX. Is the vinyl sim comp anything like the 303?
Great stuff!!!
Glad you enjoyed it man, thanks for stopping by again!
can u make hyperpop on this???
You can make whatever style of music you like I guess because it’s just a sampler - particularly loop/pattern based music!
Right on. 10k! Soon enough
Thanks man yeah. Hopefully this week by the looks of things. We’ll see! Cheers for watching!
dude how did you get the lofi wobble on those chops
I think I just cranked mfx16 when sampling it in (right hand dial). Maybe the sample already had a bit too I can't fully remember now!
Thanks!
That wobble sounds a lot like the vinyl sim on the 404
How do you mix down on the Roland before you record into a DAW? Ie, making the levels of the drums lower or higher to match the samples and drums...etc
Got a video here - th-cam.com/video/iWUrIpb8rlw/w-d-xo.html
hey man comment for comments sake, thanks bro B)
🙌🙌🙌
i got the A instead of the SX. did i mess up?
no, the a is just the sx but with a different paintjob and different limit defualts
No man don’t worry you’re all good with the A 👍
I would really love to own a 404 one day. I know this channel is gonna be super clutch when i finally pull the trigger.
I got your back man :) I’m actually thinking of doing a ‘first day with the sp’ vid soon as well so I’m sure that will come in useful 👍
@@spvidz that would be such a useful video!!!
@@spvidz looks like my christmas gift this year is gonna be a 404sx! please make this video!
@@prodtrnc3050 nice man. I’ll try and get this one done before then as I imagine quite a few people might pick them up!
Yeah you def meant "high cut filter" rather than "high pass", it's confusing for everyone ever, bc there are two oppositely worded terms that are both correct. You could have also said "low pass". It sounds obvious, but the trick to remembering correctly is to think about what the words you are saying mean. If you are filtering out the highs you are both cutting the highs, and letting the lows pass, so in that case you can say "high cut" or "low pass". Similarly, if you are filtering out lows, you are cutting lows, while letting highs pass, so in that case both "low cut" and "high pass" are correct. Fret not though, I've seen major label legendary engineers get it wrong.
Haha good to know man. Always seem to get them muddled up. I’ll get there some day cheers for passing on the info!
