Getting ONLY the ducked, sidechained sound
I see some people are under the misapprehension that with the new side chaining feature, you cannot get *only* the effected (ducked) sound.
You can do it quite easily:
- Set DRY routing to BUS3, have no effect on BUS1 and put ISOLATOR on BUS2 with all three knobs turned to minimum.
- Route the pads you want sidechained (the TARGET) to DRY
- Route the pads that provides the sidechain (the SOURCE) to BUS1
- Adjust settings to taste
There’s probably some other combinations that work as well.
Hope this proves useful to someone.
404 day with Daughter
Today is not only #404day, it’s also my daughters 4 week birthday today. So, for the occasion, she decided to help me make a beat!

French House with Sidechain Compression
Sidechain Compression is really awesome for French House. Sry for poor night camera quality.
Has Update 5.50 broken everyone’s looper? Or is it a few isolated cases?
And if they release a bug fix, surely it’s gotta be Update 5.55, right? I’m just about to update so anticipating a few bugs, I normally wait longer to update but wanna play with the side chain, it’s been a hot minute we’ve been waiting for it!

Did I do Lord Quas Justice?
I just bought an SP404 MK2 a couple days ago to start sampling and making beats. Please let me know how you think I did on one of my first remixes!
Obviously the mixing is kinda trash, but I’m just tryna hone in on my sound and sample selection before I worry about any of that.
Major Problem with V5.50
Hi everyone.
I updated to v5.50 today and I'm having a really annoying problem.
Every time I'm in looper mode and try to consolidate my loop (by pressing the copy button to a new pad), the SP404MK2 freezes on that screen, requiring me to unplug the device to restart it (simply turning it off with the button doesn't work). Is anyone else having this problem?

"tomorrow" - 4 year anniversary of my first album
The video I made sort of represents the irony of the concept of tomorrow. I don't have anything to show for tomorrow, only have things to show from yesterday/yesterweek/yesteryear. Even more ironically, a couple of the subjects in the video will most certainly not be around tomorrow. The song is about something entirely different, but I remixed and created the video with a different perspective on my own art and made something new. Fancy that!
