Making a sampled beat on Roland SP-404A

- Finally it's time for me to make a proper beatmaking video on the SP-404A from Roland! I'm chopping up a sample just to sequence it together with some drums and a bassline from the OP-1. Just a nice and simple little beat! I also finish it off by putting some cuts on top of it! What else?!

Hello Anthony Fantano's father.
K K Melon’s father got ill beats man!
GREAT COMMENT, I'll pay you when I can .
i thought he looked like dr. phil 😂
Bad snacks ‘ and lil miss beats ‘ uncle
The weird aspects of the pitch function is what adds color and character to the song.
I love the weirdness in it
Hey! When you're using the sequencer you CAN delete your "mistakes". While your pattern is playing in REC mode, just press 'DEL', it will appear 'ERS' on the screen. Then press and hold the pads you don't want to hear in that moment. You can press and delete multiple pads simultaneously.
Great video btw! I also love the sp404 sequencer and its interesting limitations. Thanks for sharing!
Love the little nod to "red means recording" :)
bestformspielt well.. I’m a big fan :)
rEC
Hey, what a lovely sample :) and great beat! My trick, to find the root note:
1. play the sample,
2. sing "right" notes (find the scale),
3. stop the sample, but don't stop with singing,
4. find the "calmest" note (what gives you the "ok, I'm home" feeling)
5. find that note on keyboard
Elégrossz? A great tip!😀
That 'ok I'm home' bit was magic
cavan ho , this is the "base" note, The strongest every other is a little bit "eh.." you don't really need the root, to make music. For example in this video Accurate doesn't touch the root (Ab). You can find it with keyboard, but - for me - it's easier with singing.
@@elegrossz8948 I can't sing for shit and don't really know my notes so I need a keyboard for now aha
lol i can't hum a tune for a sample or bass line most of the time. My voice simply doesn't go that low. I am not a singer. That's why I make beats.
This was mad helpful. Saved me a ton of digging through the manual.
I really like it when you put the scratches to it sounds really good
Bro Thank you for doing what you do for us on TH-cam.
I just got a 404 A recently and I LOVE it! So far, it’s exactly what I’ve been searching for.
how are you enjoyting it now? do you recomend it?
I’ve been waiting for this yessss
YEAH the doodles are back!! Love'em! aaaaaaaaaaaaand love the beat, great one as always, cheers!
Great. This demo actually shows what this unit does.
Learned a lot from this video. Thanks for sharing!
Getting my sp404a this week. Thanks for the tip Accurate Beats!
This is a very valuable video, thanks brother!
WoW!!! I just asked u in Instagram about it few days ago ^^ Appreciate what r u doing mang! Thanks for content !
I recently acquired an sp404 original for $100 USD. This baby is a great box to replace multitude of pedals, and the sampling quality is very good.
God damn where did you find one for 100 only
Thanks for doing this video I just got the Sp 202 & 303 and I'm about to get this one next these things are so much fun
This is a very nice video where the lesson goes beyond words and there is actually a lot of wisdom in the working process; it inspires discipline and positive vibes. Thank you very much!
You can delete each part that you don't need by pressing the del button while recording and holding the pad you want to erase from the sequence.
Wow, what a zoo of beatmaking gear! Very nice
Thanks for sharing this! I'm very interested in the 404's "no guardrails" workflow. Appreciate you making this in real time.
Best video of the SP so far, and I've seen em all lol
Sean ...sounds like me...I am just discovering this.
Beautiful track man. Very inspiring
Ricky snowConez thanks :)
sounds cool. great one!
Dope!👍
Amazing⚡️
Super and thanks!!!
NICE :-)
You make it look eeeeeeeasssy! Fire to that
does look like it takes forever. I think the perk of the 404 are the effects. Nice beat!
Love the jingle in the beginning 😅👍🥳
Always droping dope stuff....love your channel and work!!! Your sampleworks are awesome... Drums always groovy in point. Big respect and all the best. Peace and a wonderfull week!!!
Awesome man!
Coyotl thanks
Most polite BeatMaker on yt
Cool stuff 👍
Nice!
that at the end is fucking awesome
very useful, thanks!
finally a good demonstration
*creates banger* "I'm not sure"
Haha! The life of a creative
the chops over the top really took this beat to the next level
sick beat man! always loving your mad scratches at the end
Fabi Wasabi thanks!m, I appreciate that!
Great beat!
Thanks
Dope 👍🏿
WHOAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!! SUBSCRIBED!!!
The equipment made in Japan is amazing!🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵❤️
Thank you teacher 😊
Good stuff, thanks 🙏
Dope and Wicked 👌 hip hop homework
Very informative...precise...on beats and workflow
Watch ending...he used the SP-404 as an effects Module😊
Dope video
Thank god for much easier things to use like slicing it all on tape machines
I've just bought the 404 A and I need a truly basic and slowed down tutorial video of how to use it, can anybody help?
Love the beat that was dope, gives me so much inspiration!
Hey man I hope you have gotten it figured out but if not, I know it’s a bitch but the manual will help you so much and tell you exactly how it works! It’s the only way to find out every little thing it can do!
“Well it’s definitely a bassline.”
Your finger drumming is damn good fam.
ayyy finally
Soft Eyez yeah I know it took a while. Sorry bout that
Thanks for the tutorial! I still did not find out how I can load a single sample from the sd card into a single pad. Is there any function to scroll and listen through the samples on the card?? I want to have overview and access to the samples on the card while working. Is that possible??
Dope
I like the samples you come up with and how you use different hardware.
James W thanks
Nice
This beat is so dope, that last sound your were gonna put in was dope, but the scratches took it someplace else.
i have never seen the sp in action, thank you for the video friend !
you should check out Mujo, he makes some amazing sp404 videos :)
Would this work live with loading loops to play songs live? I basically want to be able to trigger loops on and off in a “song” order.
Yo nice beats and videos man! It’s on fleeek.
Can you explain me how you record the sounds from your workflow directly in to the video?
Wich program can record all this Inputs?
Nice work, bro.
Will you please make a video on how to record cuts on a beat? I'm workin w a Maschine MK3, but I don't know how to record my scratches from either of my turntables that are connected to my mixer.
So.. can the sequencer on this one quantize after you've recorded your drums?
with the chromatic pitch effect is that pitch and formant shift on ctrl 1 and 2?
Hey man thanks for the video. I was looking at picking up an old SP202 which doesn't have a sequencer so I wondered if there was any particular reason I couldn't sample something I'm playing on seven pads onto a pad I'm not playing (since the SP202 only has 8 pads) by running the outputs into the inputs again. I just need it as a sort of drum machine, to record my drum set and voice and create loops on the fly. (One cool thing about the SP202 is a great sounding onboard mic)
hey, while your seq is playing in record mode, you can press the del button and hold whatever pads you want deleted from that seq. No need to record everything over.
Michael Blattau yupp! Totally my bad!
Nice this just answered my question.
Blattau is a mad baddd guy name
@@Cavanho haha huh?
a trick for chromatic pitch; pitch up or down before artifacting is ruining sound, resample and pitch again. Rinse repeat until you get the sound you're looking for.
a neat trick to minimize artifacting
Thank you! I’ll try that tonight
So no undo feature on pattern sequencer?
Im a beginner what do u suggest me to buy first Roland SP 404 a or Roland MC 101 ? Thanks.
I love the string chord progression!!! On this anyone know the sample?
great
What is the brand/model of that camera clamp?
Where do you get your drum samples
What's the longest sample you can put on a pad?
Is their a "hold" feature for longer samples so that I don't have to hold it for 50 seconds+
Would this unit be good for sort of a "instant play back" for sets for live shows?
It records up to 5 hours and yes you can hold or trigger the sample
Very interesting
How did you play your sequencer pattern when not in pattern sequencer mode?
nice
What do you think about App Koala sampler?
I was thinking about purchasing SP 404, but then I found a Koala sampler.
But I still don't know - does the Koala sampler completely repeat the SP-404?
Hey, when you do sample based beats, how do you know for sure that everything that you layer on samples is on right key and intune?
I understand that you can go far by ear, but how to be sure?
You could try using a tuner to figure out what notes are being used in the sample.
Stupid question. Can you play the 404 without anything else? Like no midi or saw? Just your earphones?
anyone know what that first sample was called ? i really would appreciate it
Tht's great :) what a vibe!
Whooo!! excellent!
NIce vid! How do you usually use the 404, seeing that you prefer making beats on your other devices? The reason I'm asking is that I'm thinking of maybe getting a 404 or a 303 to use as a live audio processor to dirty up the sound. Think that's a good idea?
Oh, nice stash too by the way!
Thanks!
I love making beats on the 404 too but it’s just a bit too slow sometimes.
I normally use the 404 for live shows or just as an effect processor in the studio.
I love just putting a bunch of loops in it and play them live with some additional one shot triggers here and there. The built in effects are amazing for live use and to spice up any old loop.
nice upload. you didn't have to re-record the drums 10 minutes into the video though. you can delete each pad individually or together without touching the drums. I've done it before and was pleasantly surprised.
Hey cool vid !
I just wanted to know if it’s possible to use this machine as a backtracks launcher ? my idea would be to assign each pads to a wav file of about 5 or 6 minutes each.
Does it do this job ? Or is there a cheaper machine (no iPads or computer) ?
Just go with ableton live.
You would need a laptop
But you dont need to put it in sight
You could just have the midi controller on stage
just curious why did you decide to sample the individual notes for the bassline rather than sampling the entire bassline you played on the op and using that as a layer in your other bank? Also dope beat came out super sick.
Why do you have the mic enabled? Should be only ext source enabled, right??
That's why I love so much my Akai Force... 🐶🐶🐶🐶
I loved my force also, until it decided to not boot up anymore after freezing up and the screen getting hot to the touch. Only had it five months, no word from Akai on the warranty yet. Still waiting....
This was really great. I'm considering a purchase, so this helps a lot. Also your beat was on fleek. Super inspiring. Thanks. Sub'd.
Damn it’s like a mini MPC. But not as intuitive. Cool to see someone work with one of these
I noticed you edited the video when you recorded the bass line…did you have to name the sample on each pad after recording? If not recording directly to a pad looks quick.
You can set audio trig and it will record as soon it hits the thresh hold.
Hi ! Can you sample a hole song ? Like a hole beat from a song to play along with a guitar?
youre trippin! @3:55 the sample sounded crazy dope with that pitch modification
I said the same thing! Sounds menacing
He doesn't like artefacts
Uh huh!
nice one!!!
btw is that the new controller from native instrument? you got it already? damn
Redhewlett yeah, that’s the M32. Still waiting for the firmware though. :)
what software do you use?
