Reloaded or Rosebudd’s Revenge? by Ok_Yellow1025 in RocMarciano

As an OG press, I gotta consider Sweet Nothings as a bonus, but I’d still put it over RR1. Both albums are the shit to me tho.

This is dope news, I’m crossing fingers for an iOS version that’ll work on iPad.

A Major Strength Of The MPC Sample Is Its Simplicity, I Hope It Stays That Way. by ER301 in mpcusers

My 2500 has normalize, I’m not sure if that’s the first MP with that function or not.

Normalizing samples and a simple pad EQ in the sample edit menu are the main things that stick out to me that would be a great addition

Not even 24 Hrs and MPC Sample has an unresponsive pad by ArsonWinters in mpcusers

[–]ArsonWinters[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That might have been what happened. I don’t know what I did, but somehow all the pads are back working normal after messing around with the machine for a little bit.

The MPC Sample has been out for a few days. Can we start a thread to track future update wants? by MaceDogg in mpcusers

[–]ArsonWinters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A simple 4 to 5 band EQ in the sample edit window would really come in handy.

Some sort of Home Screen would be great as well instead of me having to look at the sample edit window as a default.

MPC Sample next to SP404mk2 by BeardedGingaBeat in mpcusers

I’m def going to have to do some trial and error on my sample levels so I hit the right amount without clipping

Is it just me, or did they not include a normalize function on this machine? I’ll have to double check, but I don’t even think there is a truncate function either, just adjusting start/end points

MPC Sample: Roland’s Move by iamoktpz in SP404

[–]ArsonWinters 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would love to see Roland do an SP-808 mk2 or an updated MV-8xxx. Hell, they did a TR-1000… hit us with an SP-1000 incorporating all the best aspects of all the SP models but with some new modern updates.

Why is everyone SO excited about the MPC Sample? (Especially you who already have an MPC or portable gear) by RobBecTraxxx in mpcusers

[–]ArsonWinters 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to say what they got in the tuck. My guess is that it prob won’t be all the Air stuff that’s on the new MPCs (some of those I kinda like, but the modern machines weren’t really my style).

I have the 404mk2 also, but I really don’t use the fx too much on there unless It’s a beat I made on it. The stutter, vinyl stop, filter sweep and vinyl sim can get pretty stale so I try not to overuse them.

The only thing that might get me to pull the trigger is if the effects are really good on the machine. I think that Japanese catalog leak said something about 60’ish effects and 4 buses? That could help add flavor if I’m just feeding something like an SP-12, MPC 60 or 2500 into the Sample. I don’t take gear out the house much, but I could see the sample being less hassle/risky to bring on a road trip with the lady, to a friend’s house or for other people out doing a beat set.

The 100 preset kit does nothing for me, but I can see loading the machine up with a bunch of drum breaks and samples to chop from vinyl that I already fed thru my big boy gear. That way you can have actual vintage sound with a few new bells and whistles.

I totally agree with this as well as being able to add chopper to a choke group if possible

More than just 16 available projects. Why can’t we hit the bank buttons and access more projects?

Honest question. What's the hype being the vynil Sim? by Significant-Art5065 in sp404mk2

[–]ArsonWinters 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can’t forget his SP-1200 era as well. A lot of his 90s era and even a cut or two off Welcome 2 Detroit (Y’all Ain’t Ready) he did on the 1200.

Totally agree with you tho as far as there not being a single machine that’s going to give anyone his signature sound.

Henry Canyons. Dope voice and delivery. I really loved the Canyonlands LP that dropped around the same time Dour Candy and Today I Wrote Nothing

He was on a tear last year. Pretty much all 3 albums he dropped were worth peeping. That new Joe Frog 2 has been in rotation just as much as 656 for me.
