7 Before You Start 1. VOLUME Knob This knob adjusts the volume of the line output and the headphones. 2. CTRL 1–3 Knobs These knobs control the parameters that are assigned to each knob according to the effect you’ve selected.
8 Before You Start 7. PATTERN SELECT Button Use this button to play or record a pattern. When this button is lit, you can press a pad to select a pattern. (p. 13, p. 34, p. 44) LENGTH Button Use this button to specify the length of the pattern when recording a pattern.
9 Before You Start 1. PHONES Jack A set of stereo headphones can be connected here. They will output the same sound as the LINE OUT jacks. (p. 10) 2. MEMORY CARD Slot A separately available memory card (CompactFlash) can be inserted here. You can use memory card banks C–J to record extended samples that would be too large for the internal memory.
10 Before You Start Refer to the illustration, and make connections in the order given below. 1. Turn off the power of all devices before you make connections. To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power on all devices before making any connections.
11 Before You Start The power of the SP-404 must be turned off when you insert or remove a memory card. If you insert or remove a memory card while the power is on, you risk damaging the data of the memory card or rendering it unusable. 1. Insert the memory card into the card slot located on the front panel.
12 Quick Start When the SP-404 is shipped from the factory, pads 1–12 of sample bank A and pads 1 and 2 of sample bank B contain samples. Let’s start by listening to these samples.
13 Quick Start 1. Make sure that [PATTERN SELECT] is not lighted. If it’s lit, press [PATTERN SELECT] to switch it off. 2. Press the pad that plays the sample to which you want to apply the filter + overdrive effect. The pad lights, and the sample begins playing.
14 Quick Start Here’s how to change the playback tempo of a pattern. 1. Press [PATTERN SELECT] so it’s lit. 2. Press [TIME/BPM] so it’s lit. 3. Turn the CTRL 2 knob. The playback tempo of the pattern changes. The display indicates the playback tempo as a BPM value.
15 Quick Start 6. Adjust the volume of your CD player. Turn the CTRL 3 (LEVEL) knob all the way to the right, then adjust the volume of the connected CD player so the PEAK indicator lights occasionally.
16 Chapter 1. Playing Samples On the SP-404, pads 1–12 and the bank buttons are used to play samples. A pad whose sample is playing will light. The pad you pressed most recently to play it is called the current pad . The panel will show the settings for the current pad.
17 Chapter 1. Playing Samples The SP-404 lets you control the playing/muted status of (and apply effects to) an external audio input source such as a CD player connected to the LINE IN jacks, a mic connected to the MIC IN jack, or sound from the SP-404’s internal mic.
18 Chapter 2. Using Effects Since the SP-404 provides 29 different effects, you can apply an effect to a sample to modify the sound without needing any other equipment. • Of the 29 effects, five of them—filter + overdrive, pitch shifter, delay, isolator, and vinyl simulator—can be selected directly by pressing a button.
19 Chapter 2. Using Effects If you want an effect to apply to all pads at once, you would have to perform the above procedure for each pad, which would take some time. However if you want to apply the effect to all pads, there’s an easier way. Proceed as follows.
20 Chapter 2. Using Effects : These effects will be limited if Effect Limit mode (p. 19) is on. The ★ symbol in the CTRL 1–3 columns indicates the parameters whose depth will be limited.
21 Chapter 2. Using Effects 5. PHASER ★ (S/R = ON) DEPTH/RESONANCE (d-r) ★ RATE (rAt) BALANCE (bAL) Adds modulation to the sound. * When Send/Return mode is on: Adjusts both DEPTH and RESO- NANCE simultaneously. Adjusts the rate of modulation. Adjusts the volume balance be- tween the direct sound and effect sound.
22 Chapter 2. Using Effects : This indicates an effect that will be limited if Effect Limit mode (p. 19) is on. The ★ symbol in the CTRL 1–3 columns indicates the parameters whose depth will be limited. *2 : If “17. SLICER” is selected as the MFX, turning the CTRL 1 knob will select from the following TIMING PTN (timing patterns).
23 Chapter 3. Sampling Recording (sampling) audio material whose copyright is owned by another party for any purpose except personal enjoyment without permission of the copyright owner is forbidden by law.
24 Chapter 3. Sampling 5. Press BANK [B] so it’s lit. Sample bank B is selected. 6. Press pad 10. Pad 10 lights, and [REC] starts blinking. 7. Press [LO-FI] to select the sampling grade. [LO-FI] unlit: STANDARD (high audio quality) [LO-FI] lit: LO-FI (low fidelity audio) 8.
25 Chapter 3. Sampling You can use the CTRL 1 knob and CTRL 2 to adjust the effect at this time. The CTRL 3 knob is used to adjust the sampling level, so you won’t be able to use it to adjust the effect. At this point, you can specify the tempo or enter a count for sampling.
26 Chapter 3. Sampling You can make the SP-404 generate a count (1, 2, 3, 4) when you start sampling. This is convenient when you have a specific tempo or time signature in mind. 1. Make preparations for sampling as described in steps 1 – 10 of “Sampling from a CD” (p.
27 Chapter 3. Sampling 4. Press [FILTER+DRIVE] so it’s lit. The filter + overdrive effect is turned on, and the effect is applied to pad 1 of bank A. As desired, turn the CTRL 1 and CTRL 2 knobs to adjust the effect. If [RESAMPLE] is lit, you can’t use the CTRL 3 knob to adjust the effect.
28 Chapter 3. Sampling You can change the pad to which a sample is assigned by exchanging samples between two pads. You can also exchange assignments between a pad to which a sample is assigned and a pad to which no sample is assigned. 1. Make sure that [PATTERN SELECT] is not lighted.
29 Chapter 4. Changing the Settings of a Sample The SP-404 lets you specify the volume with which each sample is to play. This is a convenient way to create a consistent volume balance between the samples of each pad. 1. Make sure that [PATTERN SELECT] is not lighted.
30 Chapter 4. Changing the Settings of a Sample 1. Make sure that [PATTERN SELECT] is not lighted. If it’s lit, press [PATTERN SELECT] to switch it off. 2. Press the pad that plays the sample whose Gate/Trigger setting you want to change. The pad lights and the sample begins playing.
31 Chapter 4. Changing the Settings of a Sample 1. Make sure that [PATTERN SELECT] is not lighted. If it’s lit, press [PATTERN SELECT] to switch it off. 2. Press the pad that plays the sample whose setting you want to change. The pad lights and the sample begins playing.
32 Chapter 4. Changing the Settings of a Sample 1. Make sure that [PATTERN SELECT] is not lighted. If it’s lit, press [PATTERN SELECT] to switch it off. 2. Press the pad that plays the sample whose setting you want to change. The pad lights and the sample begins playing.
33 Chapter 4. Changing the Settings of a Sample The BPM (tempo) of a sample is determined automatically by the length of the interval between the sample’s Start Point and End Point. However depending on this length, the calculated BPM value may be half or double the correct BPM.
34 Chapter 5. Recording a Performance of Samples (Pattern Sequencer) You can play samples and record this performance as a pattern that can be played back later. Another way to use this capability is to combine several phrase samples to create a simple song, or to combine rhythm samples to create rhythm patterns.
35 Chapter 5. Recording a Performance of Samples (Pattern Sequencer) If no memory card is inserted, you can’t select pattern banks C– J. 4. Press the pad to which you want to assign the pattern to be recorded. The pad you pressed lights, and the remaining pads go out.
36 Chapter 5. Recording a Performance of Samples (Pattern Sequencer) If you recorded a pad press by mistake, you can erase it as follows. 1. Press [PATTERN SELECT] so it’s lit. “Ptn” appears in the display. Pads to which a pattern is assigned start blinking.
37 Chapter 5. Recording a Performance of Samples (Pattern Sequencer) Here’s how to delete all patterns from internal memory or the memory card in a single operation. 1. Press [PATTERN SELECT] so it’s lit. “Ptn” appears in the display. Pads that have been recorded start blinking.
38 Chapter 6. Using a Memory Card You must switch OFF the SP-404’s power before inserting or removing a memory card. If you insert or remove a memory card while the power is on, you risk damaging the data on the memory card, or rendering the memory card unusable.
39 Chapter 6. Using a Memory Card 4. Select the sample bank into which you want to import the file. Press one of the BANK [A]–[F/J] buttons. The button you pressed lights, and that bank (A–F) is selected. If you press a BANK [C/G]–[F/J] button once again, the button starts blinking, and a G–J bank is selected.
40 Chapter 6. Using a Memory Card Here’s how to save backup data (all of the SP-404’s data including sample banks and pattern banks) to a memory card.
41 Chapter 7. Other Functions MIDI stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface. It is a universal standard that allows electronic musical instruments and computers to exchange performance data. The SP-404 supports the MIDI standard, and provides a MIDI IN connector.
42 Chapter 7. Other Functions 3. Press [TIME/BPM] so its LED goes out. This completes the MIDI synchronization mode setting. This setting is remembered even after you turn off the power.
43 Chapter 7. Other Functions You can enable the Protect setting to prevent samples or patterns from being overwritten or erased accidentally. Protecting All Samples and Patterns 1. While holding down [REMAIN], turn on the power. “P.on” appears in the display; the samples and patterns of banks A–J are now protected.
44 Chapter 8. Examples of Using the SP-404 In this example we’ll use the factory-assigned samples to create a two-measure rhythm pattern at 102 BPM. We’ll use the following samples that are assigned to sample bank A: Pad 9: Kick Pad 10: Snare Pad 12: Hi-hat Pad 4: Voice 1.
45 Chapter 8. Examples of Using the SP-404 Here’s how you can use the SP-404 to play samples along with a turntable performance. Connections 1. Set the crossfader of your DJ mixer to the turntable position. Start your turntable. 2. While pressing the pads of the SP-404 to play the sounds, monitor the SP-404’s sound through the DJ mixer.
