Great vid! Another interesting tip here: If you hold "Tap tempo" and then press (and hold) the desired effect button, it will activate the effect temporarily, until you stop pressing. Great for better accuracy in timing.
Multi FX ... multi tasker .... all there .. along with under water pink capped sunfish ... cheers to another informative video ... and that happy smile ... !
You are a certified goofball but thank you much for the informative, light-hearted content. I dig the track a lot, will definitely be checking out your music!
Hi Liam! First thanks for your videos! I appreciate your help. I have a question. I set my effects as you did, but sometimes if i change between effects some of the knobs don't stay as i set them before. For example the drive knobe of filter section goes up, and will got an horrible sound or the isolator will be too weak. So the sp404 can't note my settings maybe... Any idea? Thanks. :)
You have to sort of turn the FX on and off quickly sometimes and THEN readjust knobs depending on the FX that you're using in order for them not to jump as you're describing.
Can you stack effects on the SP…say im using it to process sounds from my DAW..can I use a filter and a reverb at the same time or multiple mix options??
Hi amigo here it is, th-cam.com/video/Yo6RmmlCa8k/w-d-xo.html what is that fx at 13 secs and 30 secs. It’s kinds like gate fx but can’t figure it out or the notes it’s in. It’s heavily used in Jungle music. Put me out my misery pls 😆
Having a hard time finding this one in the manual... does anyone know how you can select a pad to apply an effect to while its playing on a loop without stopping playback? For instance, a synth loop is playing on pad 1 - I am triggering other pads and turning effects on and off, but I want to select pad 1 to add some delay, but dont want the loop to stop playback when I tap the pad... hope that makes sense. haha.
If i’m understanding correctly i’m not sure that’s possible. Unfortunately when you tap the pad it starts/stops it. Don’t think there’s a way around that to my knowledge.
Hey man, thanks for the videos. Wondering your opinion though (anyone reading this really)...I am going to possibly trade my volca sample and microkorg for a new sp 404a. I paid around $400 for the gear. Good idea? Bad idea? Thanks.
Blew my mind with the multi fx/DJ Looper button to get to second half of effects. I will be practicing tonight! Love the song btw.
Thanks man! 🙂 Yeah it’s a nice lil secret 🙂

Holy crap really?? Thanks so much! Might include that in another vid
Holy shit how have I gone this long without knowing you could select your effects like that, you're a legend
Now ya know! Cheers,

Yeah agree with the others down here you just leveled the up with the mfx+dj trick for 13-24 THANK YOU
Pleasure!!!
Excellent video! I have been using the sp404 since 2012 and never knew about the multi fx/dj looper trick for accessing the second half of effects!
Glad to help!

Thank you! 🙂
Can you put a stereo synth into its inputs then have all the SP404 sounds and your synth get all the fx applied to them together?
You certainly can
@@LiamKillen then also add a mono input on the front to be playing a stereo+mono (3 cables) through simultaneously?
Nicely done man, loving it you remind me of me lol
You must be cool AF then
@@LiamKillen I sure am dude
Cheers
yesss man.. great tips!
Glad to help 🙂

Neat trick with the multi fx!
Does it work with the og 404?
I'm pretty sure it's accessible on all 404s ! :-)
@@LiamKillen niiice i'll try that, thanks!
The 🐐
Me dood!
Ma* lol

You’d have to resample to do that
@@LiamKillen gotcha! Thanks for responding
Anytime 🙂
What is the fx that creates like Gate fx. Trying to see how people make split second gap in the beat.
I think that may be the reverb you mean
Nah not reverb i will send you a track let me know which fx you think it is 👍

ok
Can you give me the time that it happens? 3 mins and 13 secs? I’ll help ya out- I think you made a type in last msg

@@LiamKillen interesting! thanks man.
Pleasure! Cheers
PS what's the name of this track i wanna listen to it!
A lot of the music from this video isn't officially released but you'll find some of it on my Soundcloud: soundcloud.com/liamkillen
How do you skin a 404 BEFORE learning the FX button "shortcut"
Ya just do it
@@LiamKillen can't argue that, great video though ✌️
Thanks!
Don’t skin it. The sp404 looks fucking badass untouched. All I did was put a stay high 149 on mine I stay classy bitch
To each their own
Hey man, thanks for the videos. Wondering your opinion though (anyone reading this really)...I am going to possibly trade my volca sample and microkorg for a new sp 404a. I paid around $400 for the gear. Good idea? Bad idea? Thanks.
Sounds like a good idea to me! 🙂
Thanks man, appreciate the videos.

I was going to like this but there are 404 likes and I don't want to ruin it.
No one ever like this again!!
