sp505 user here, i watch these sp303 beatmaking videos as inspiration cuz theyre basically the same sampler. and also, this beats fuckin great, keep goin man
Bonjour, je viens de découvrir votre chaîne TH-cam, et votre histoire d'interruption de deux ans de poster des vidéos est étonnante, tant mieux pour vous car j'ai adoré votre côté Beatmaker ! 😊👍
Would you share what drew you to these sample selections? Specifically the two albums you sampled drums/perc from - were you already familiar with these (stuff you sampled before) or did you dig for them (the art form of happy accidents)? Also, since you have three SP’s - is the 303 your fav? Loving your tutorial style, btw. So clean and clear to understand! Great beats!
Aww thank you so much!!! I try to go through all my records and mark down which ones have drums/percussion so that it’s easy to find later on. As for my favourite SP…I love my 303 for it’s sound but for speed and ease of use I’d have to say that the 404A is my favourite…but once I finally pick up an MKII I bet I’ll be obsessed with it lol
@@_sugr.skull_ gotcha. I've got an SX and a record player, but my beat making still happens mostly in Ableton on my macbook. I try to keep my sample sources strictly from vinyl, but I'm finding myself transferring vinyl to computer when it comes to drum breaks, since its just so much easier to catalog these sounds on the computer. Instead of putting a record on 'in the moment.' I suppose this is lazy lol. I do enjoy straight vinyl-SX though. The process of chopping with pads, buttons and knobs can be pretty relaxing. I don't go much further than my x bar loop though - sequencing on the SP series leaves a lot to be desired. I tried the MKII, but it felt like it had too much going on and the jumpy waveform screen (while zooming in and out) drove me nuts. The primitive simplicity of it's predecessors kinda wins. You might love it though, a lot of people do!
Oh man, I feel that. I started on an MPC2000XL (which I actually sold a few years ago) and when I bought my 404A I couldn’t stand it at first…now I absolutely love the SP workflow and sound, took a while though.
@@_sugr.skull_ There's something liberating about the SP's. I have a modern MPC, so I wanted something more raw, portable, limited, with less fluff. I'm absolutely cheating because the MK2 is easy mode compared to the old ones, but I love it.
Yes. There IS learning curve to it though. I found it much less intuitive then its predecessors. Imagine having an MPC and an SP fused all into 1...that's the mk 2 in my opinion. It might be your thing...@@_sugr.skull_
Wish I could subscribe twice my dude! I've been on a similar hiatus and surprisingly my channel has also grown while I was gone, stoked! Lately I've been feeling like I need to get creative again and this video definitely inspired me. Welcome back, and awesome video! Really enjoyed watching your process.
Do you ever put samples onto the cf card from the comp? If so, what reader do you use for that? (I’ve had a huge problem finding cf card readers that work)
Hey! I’m using the Numark PT01 Scratch…I also installed a separate pitch control called the Ultra Pitch, but I’m not sure if they’re available anymore. What sampler are you using?
Oh ya, sometimes it’s a bit of a headache…I’ll mess around with the start and end points to get it as close as possible…but if I can’t get it quite right then I’ll cheat a little and just fix it in Ableton with some warping.
this is one of the best demonstrations of using the sp devices on youtube. this channel is becoming a huge help for me. salute
🙏 thanks so much!! I really love hearing that!
Too hard giving me mad inspiration for my 404 🙏
Yes! Go make some beats 🔥
bro still grinding! yoooo
Yes yes…been a while, but getting back to it!
Welcome back! We all missed you! (Well, the 100ish from before and the 600 new) 🥂
💜 thank you!!! It’s good to be back!

Did you lose weight? I’m happy you back! What vinyl player do you have?
I did! ☺️ thanks for noticing!…I’m using the Numark PT2 scratch

@@_sugr.skull_ of course you look good man!
Yup 😊 it’s not like super good, but it has a built in fader and stuff

Definitely man…we all have different workflows
damn what a great video, i really learned a lot ! ill try to emulate what you did on roland's new sp (the mkII)
🙏 thanks so much! I definitely need to get my hands on an mkII one of these days
Got myself an MK2. Coming from an MPC, I feel an absolute dumbass using that thing. I can't understand how people use the OG ones

This may be a dumb question, but what laptop are you using to record? Thanks and dope music.
Not dumb at all…it’s a MacBook Pro :) and thanks so much!!
@@_sugr.skull_ thanks man. I appreciate that
No worries at all 😊
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Much love
My man.. I'm feeling this track yo...
Have you had a chance to try the mk2?
Thanks so much!
I haven’t, but it looks crazy!! Have you?
Yes. There IS learning curve to it though. I found it much less intuitive then its predecessors.

I’m going to re watch this
🙏 glad you enjoyed it!
love these videos! Do you run your turntable directly into the SP or through a pre-amp first?
Thank you so much!! No, my turntable has a built in pre-amp

Do you ever put samples onto the cf card from the comp? If so, what reader do you use for that? (I’ve had a huge problem finding cf card readers that work)
I’ve actually never done that. I’ve only done it on the 404A, but that’s just a SD card.
When i’m rich this will be the first thing i invest in… Madlib greatest of all time
Hey! I was looking into getting a cheap record player just for sampling and I want to know what one you use.

Thank you!
Do you ever have trouble getting things to loop properly after resampling?
Oh ya, sometimes it’s a bit of a headache…I’ll mess around with the start and end points to get it as close as possible…but if I can’t get it quite right then I’ll cheat a little and just fix it in Ableton with some warping.
How do you export or get your beats made on the 303 to a computer?
I just record them into Ableton. Line out on the 303 to the line in on my audio interface :)
@@_sugr.skull_ and which audio interface are you using?
I’m using the Tascam US-16x08 :)
whats that piece of outboard rack looking gear "above" the SP?
That’s my audio interface for getting my music from my samplers into my computer ☺️
