I just got my SP-404 Mk II four days ago, and while it's got a bit of a learning curve, I am straight up blown away by how much it can do and how many roles it can fill! 😮 I was worried I'd made the wrong choice at first because it took so much work to get up and running with it, but now I'm glad I went with this sampler/effects pedal/drum machine over the simple groovebox I was looking at before!
The sp does have a ton of features, depth and a bit of learning curve. But once you get past that, it should be pretty quick and easy to make music with. Enjoy!
First time SP user and this tutorial was fan-freaking-tastic. I was happy to learn about chromatic mode as well (play samples like a keyboard). I build trainings at my day job so I know how much work went into creating this. Thanks Ollie
This video was so fun to follow.. I especially like this kind of tutorial videos which are fast and very detailed and carefully organized .. Thanks man 👍🙋🏻♂
Been looking for a video like this to help me get into my MKII - THANK YOU for making content like this that is well organized, easy to get right into, and helps us get from staring at the shiny buttons with awe to making moves with knowledge. You've got my subscription for LIFE friend
Thank you for making this clear and to the point! The well organised chapters also really help! It makes learning this machine a lot less daunting 🙌🏼 Your channel is a big inspiration.
Thanks for taking the time to create a in depth easy to follow tutorial. I bought and sp 404 mk2 for Christmas and it has basically sat collecting dust. I have a Mpc live 2 and have gotten so use to its workflow that I abandoned the sp due to the menu diving. But I am trying to get back to the sp because know it is a beast. I just need to put in the time to learning all the button combos. I use Sweetwater as well and would highly recommend them as well. They have an amazing staff.
Thanks for taking the time to write this comment. This device has a unique workflow. I made this video to help users understand it. Hopefully you get something out of the video and more so out of the SP. Have fun.
i swear you are watching me, i searched up akai mpc one and you made a video about that, and now i search up the SP404 MKII and you made a video on THIS
I was doubting whether I was going to buy one. Thank you for making clear how it really works. This helps! Looking forward to using one (in stead of dreading the learning curve).
Great video - Watching this while listening through the external source on my SP404 MKII made it easy to duplicate the processes and commit them to memory.
Ok I am back again on this video. Few days later I understood a bit more the sp404mk2 with other videos and this video is very helpful. Thanks 🙏🏻 really learned more stuff and the length of the video is perfect :) ❤
Can I load a sample in C note, and then use my midi keyboard to play that simple in other notes, e.g. D, F etc? So basically use it as "sample-synth"? I just bought it, by the way 😀
such an amazing video! The only thing I dont get,, can't you use hardware synths ( stereo out) into the 404mkII? ( stereo in ) 05:17 I don't want play a fake synth on my Iphone!
Thanks. Yes, you can use the line input on the SP to accept a signal from hardware synths and anything that outputs a line level signal. This is shown in the same video at 20:44 ruclips.net/video/kUrJHO6rCO4/видео.html
I think its weirdness stems from it starting as an effects processor and sampler. The sequencer and song part of it was kind of an afterthought. But then people got into it, and I think it's odd workflow became one of it's biggest draws. Enjoy!
which os is used currently on the sp404 tutorial. Would be nice to see this information as an overlay in the video f.e. in the upper right corner of the screen f.e. os v 3.0.3
Very helpful tutorial! Just one thing.. I think it's impossible to add Input effects when resampling (in mix mode) I tried it and it didn't work, they only work with external sources.
Superbly well presented, compressing all this into a video of this length. This machine is rich and has way more modes than I expected. The U.I is quite complex and I doubt I would use much of it as it duplicates many functions I already do very simply on other devices, eg.location recording (phone), sampling and processing (Maschine, Kontakt or Ableton). However, the supporting app is great and as a performance sample player, it will be very useful to me.
Thanks! It is a really rich and deep device. I guess similar to other things, you find the workflow that works for you and ignore the other features. e.g. Ableton can get extremely deep and complex, but I only use the parts that work for my workflow. Still the SP404 mkII is a powerful device for those who want to dive deeper.
Thanks! I wasnt one of the lucky ones to get an EP from TE. But I did order one and it may find its way into the production schedule. Keep an eye out. Thanks for your support!
@@OllieLoops what are your resampling tips for internal samples? So I have some samples and want to chop them up and resample how would this work on the SP 404 MK2?
Nice video, one thing i dont understand is why I have no empty pattern banks, and i did a factory reset, i so want this machine to work for me but workflow to such a pain in the ass , luckily sounds are great quality, other wise i would shot it out the window
Thanks for your comment. There's a bit of a learning curve on this device. Let's see if I can help. So, you did a factory reset and your patterns are empty, correct? Or is it the opposite, you did a factory reset but all your patterns still exist? To delete a pattern: Press Pattern Select. Press DEL, then select the pad of the pattern you want to delete, then press DEL again. Hope that helps.
@ Thanks a mill for quick reply!So after factory reset all the patterns on all banks are flashin purple and each have an assigned pattern. Therefore not sure if i should be deleting exisiting ones to be able to create my own, yet these patterns sound pretty spankin good , sound quality is incredible! I still have to complete the rest of your video, im positive it will turn out great.Thank you sir. .
How does it do with MIDI clocks? I've read online that the 404 doesn't like syncing to external source via MIDI in? Is this true, or just a rumour? I'm considering getting a SP404 mk2 as my first hardware sampler. I will deffo be wanting to sync it to external source so if you have any info on that, that would be wicked. Folks in groups and forums n stuff say that it is fine as the master sending out clock via MIDI, but if it's synced to something else it doesn't like it and goes out of phase after a few bars? Cheers
6:30 minutes in, it seems like your sending audio to the SP while still having it play through your speakers. maybe you have the SP going to a separate mixer. I'm trying to figure out how to sample without having to monitor through SP with headphones.
Yes, throughout the video, I'm sending audio out of the line outputs to speakers and recording equipment. I don't 100% understand your question. You can either use headphones or speakers to monitor. Both use the Volume knob to control the line output/headphone level.
@@OllieLoops thanks. hmm I found another way. but basically if I send my computer output to the SP then I have to listen through the SP and not my monitors. not ideal.
@@raindrozest9558 well, if you're listening through your monitors and connected to an audio interface, set the SP as the input in your DAW (or system preferences) and the output as your audio interface. That should work. hope that helps.
@@raindrozest9558 ok, I think I understand what you're trying to do, you want to sample into the SP from your computer, but your computer is the primary output to your monitors. And you get a feedback loop when trying to do this, correct? That is a tricky thing that I wish Roland would have a warning about, because it is technically a feedback loop once you engage the Ext Source button. So, I don't know what you're trying to record from, but to work around this, I just muted input monitoring on the DAW's channel where I had the SP connected to. Just mute monitoring when you're trying to record/sample into the SP. Unmute when you have EXT Source off and you want to play it back through the computer. let me know if that works.
How do I just take a sample and put it on the same pad in pattern mode? I’m just using this as a drum machine at the moment. It seems like it’s on there already but recorded over the original pattern that came with the sp. Should I just have deleted the pad before putting on a drum loop?
I’m not 100% sure what you mean. Two samples can’t occupy the same pad. If you want to replace the sample, you can just record or load a new sample onto the pad. I recommend using the SP app, as it’s super easy to do there. How that helps.
does the sample have to be in C for chromatic mode or does adjusting the root note match it the sample like if my sample is in E i adjust the root in chromatic mode to E?
Good question. I think there's two ways to approach this: 1. You can change the pitch of a sample, say it's in E and you want it in C: Press PITCH/SPEED, select a pad, rotate CONTROL KNOB 2 to adjust the pitch/key to what you want. 2. You can adjust the scale of Chromatic Mode, say from C to E: Press a pad, Press & hold shift + Pad 4, Press the VALUE KNOB to change the scale type used by Chromatic mode (Major, Minor, etc). Press & hold VALUE KNOB then rotate to adjust the Key/root note of Chromatic Mode. I hope that helps.
I saw that. Looks like some cool features. I have one in production now. Should be out in the next day or two. It's not about those updates, but on the device. Hopefully people like it! I'll have to see how the production schedule looks.
Thanks for this video, very good showing how the device works. I am considering adding it to my setup and I’m learning about it to know if it will fit in my workflow. I wish to use it like a ableton clips and making scenes. Is there a way to record way to record long performance like a few minutes from a synth and then selecting the bars I want to use in my track? I know I can adjust start and end of a loop in a sample but I need to have like bar start markers, I can set the tempo when recording so I can have the option to cut up the bar I need.
Hi, thanks for your comment. When working in Ableton, not many devices can match the power and features of that software. With that, the SP is basic by comparison. Like you mentioned, you can edit the start and end points. You can also chop a sample. Yes, you can use it as a sampler to record a synth or any audio. I don't know of a time limit to the samples. You could edit the sample as mentioned, or you could take the samples to a DAW for further use. Here's a few suggestions for how you could use the device (with ableton): 1. Use it as your front end sampler to quickly capture recordings. Then transition them to the DAW for further editing, arrangement, etc. 2. Use the SP as the tail end of your workflow where you make songs in a DAW, then export stems to the device to play live. I did this recently and enjoyed playing live with the device. 3. Mix these two. Since the SP is also an audio interface, you can use it as an in between device with other outboard gear. Use it as a sampler or effects unit. Then use the DAW for what it does well. Then export stems, loops, one shots, to the SP for performance purposes. I hope that helps.
It doesn’t integrate like Overbridge. Think of it as just an interface for IO. You maybe able to sync midi and trigger things on the device from a DAW. But it’s not robust like Overbridge.
@@OllieLoops ok thanks, then I presume the three inputs will just record all together as one stereo recording of everything samples included (rather than separated)
Each of these devices has a different workflow. I would recommend looking into each. The SP is a good beat making device which a lot of people like for its simplicity. The MPC has a slightly higher learning curve and more features. So it depends on what you want. Good luck.
yes I mean how suitable is it for LIVE SAMPLING to improvise intuitive remixing in a live DJ performance (e.g. quantitation options and quick external audio sample recording with followed playback options)?
Yes, the real trick to sample trimming, especially loops is to get the timing/trim right. However, that is also what makes this device unique, because you can make the sample timing whatever you want.
This video is so difficult not basic, I tried to connect the opz via usb and couldnt, i try to follow along but i feel lost like i am in a math class where the teacher just writes the answer on the board with no explanation for the results.
Thanks for your comment. I appreciate your feedback. The video is fast on purpose, mostly in response to many people's attention spans. If you need a private lesson where we can cover things slowly and in detail, please let me know.
Now, talk about public utility video. Roland owes you one hell of a paycheck for this one cause you earned them some sales. Mine included…once they are back in stock
I learned more from this than I did watching the official Roland video. Thank you!
Thanks, I'm so happy that it helped you learn the device. Have fun.
@@OllieLoopstruly great video. Can you run sound through the stereo input while also sequencing/playing samples and have the fx apply to all of it?
Same!

This video is so difficult not basic, I tried to connect the opz via usb and couldnt, i try to follow along but i feel lost like i am in a math class where the teacher just writes the answer on the board with no explanation for the results.
Thanks for your comment. I appreciate your feedback.
The video is fast on purpose, mostly in response to many people's attention spans.
If you need a private lesson where we can cover things slowly and in detail, please let me know.
Just to be clear: you don’t “need” a phone with a Lightning connector, most (all?) phones on the other side of the aisle have had USB-C for years… 😏
You need it for what exactly?
@@OllieLoops I missed out the word “don’t”, corrected now.
@@symbiat0 gotcha. yes, no need for a lightning connector device.
22:57 freaked me out, that’s my first name.
Haha. well, you might want to move your car.
Now, talk about public utility video. Roland owes you one hell of a paycheck for this one cause you earned them some sales. Mine included…once they are back in stock
Thanks! Enjoy your SP!
So it's the same as PO-33 just in big box;)
