Deleting pads from a pattern used to be annoying but they improved it a lot in the 1.14 firmware update. You can go to pattern edit, hold down DEL, tap the pads you want to clear, and press the enter button. WAY better now.

Does this delete the entire take in that sequence without having to hold down the pad till it loops around? If that’s the case I am so glad you stepped in to leave this on the comments because that is exactly what I was looking for lol, blessings to you and thank you for dropping by brother

I agree. I just got a SP404MKII and I am currently learning how to start a beat on it. I am so used to my MPC X so this is a learning curve for me.

This was needed! As a new buyer of the SP..this video opened up alot and I completed my first beat with this video. I'm off and running now. Thanks alot!

I'm a new SP user, and I've watched a LOT of videos. This is hands down the most useful video on the SP404MkII I've watched. YMMV, of course, but it's not just the explanations of the functions, it's how they work together that is shown in such great detail. Definitely will watch any SP content you share.

I kinda waited for the dust to settle down now I’m revisiting all the sp404 mk2 videos before I pull the trigger on one of these babies!

Dude I’ve always been intimated to use the pattern sequencer I just couldn’t wrap my head around it, but you covered everything in depth and I’m excited to start making my patterns

Roland should employ you to do a proper video manual! When a new Sp mk2 user opens their boxfresh unit there should be a qr code that literally takes them right to you! SUPERB training manual and real life scenarios here. thank you man jb xx

This is the first time that I have fully understood the sequencer thanks to you. Before, I had problems again and again.

This video is very helpful and important. You answered all my questions I had with the sequencer. Omg when everyone get their 404 this video is going to blast off. Like there is no video like this. I’m glad you did it bro. Keep helping & creating. Malo Da Goat 🐐 !!! 💯

Thank you. This is the best sp404 talk thru/ walk thru. I was about to take it back to GC. I come from the mpc world too.

Very clear, direct explanation and with good taste in music. Thanks for another great vid.

Brilliant tutorial, this will certainly help us newbies. Very much appreciated.

Great video! I have just got one of these, i am a complete beginner and have wanted something like this for a while. After playing with the stock samples a little I am now ready to start making my own sounds and this is very helpful. Thanks

Thank you - great tutorial!

I bought this and Mpc live 2together and currently having fun with mPC LIVE 2 to lay down the beats ( GOAT ) and using sp404 to import the tracks to add the finals effect touches. Hope MPC LIVE 2 able to integrate together with SP404 directly ....due to the 48HZ issue

I’m brand new to the 404 and was about to return it when I stumbled upon your vid. I couldn’t figure out how to record on pattern. Thnx.

Thank you for this. Really wish there was a way to edit the placement of the samples on a grid after recording it yo the pattern. Sucks having to delete and re-record each time.

I really enjoyed this video!This is a very similar way to make sequences with MPCs so it is very easy to understand it for me. This could be my basic way of making beats with sp404mk2! However, I can't purchase sp404mk2 in Japan nowadays because of out of stock so I pre-ordered it to enjoy making beats ASAP!

Your MK2 videos are helping me learn this machine! Question: how do you get the intro, verse, chorus on the same pad so its like a song? Do you have to load it into your DAW or can it be done on the 404?

Dope production! Is this track available to stream?

Such a helpful video, thank you so much! My pattern adds an extra bar of silence after I try to record something - even after checking project tempo, sample tempo, looping the sample, etc. Does anyone know what the deal might be?

Dope video!I had a question how did you get your samples to sound so dirty?Did you use a effect on the MKII?

Great vid, thanks so much. I'm having a strange issue when changing from pattern to pattern... It changes the moment i press the pad, it doesn't finish out the remaining bars before changing to the next pattern... Is there a setting i have wrong somewhere? Much thanks..

No MPC needed if u have an SP-404MKII. Greatest SP ever

i allways loved the sx sequencer. its perfect. i dont get the hate

Great info but I have just one question; how do you write a bass line on it. What is the workflow for getting chromatic notes or a scale. Thanks.

The beat is fire 🔥. I bought the sp 404mk2 and I could not get into it. I just stick to my Mpc X even though I wish it had more warmth to it.

Very helpful tutorial, thanks! question- I forget if the SP 404 Mk2 had an SD card included? I bought Mk2 a few months ago and moved and not sure if I misplaced the SD or if there was none. If anyone knows, I would appreciate it. Thanks.

I don't know if I asked you this already but can you tell me how to change midi channels on the sp404mkii I'm trying to sequence from the ASR 10?

Sir Can I use theses tones or loops through midi cable on Roland Spd 20/Spd 30/Yamaha Dtx..?

Hectic 🥵

Dope video!💪🏾 But what's the deal with shipping and availability?🤔 Why Roland shipping them out in batches?

It would be nice if SP artists started using effects other than isolator or djfx looper on their 16s. Did you know that on the MK2, you can change which effects are on the quick effects buttons?

I’m new to the sp404 was wondering if you could tell me where u got the samples from because I would like to follow along

Can I use effects to mix audio transmitted via USB port?

Yeah bro this sounds just as good as a mpc if not better if they do a lil more improving on the sequencer would you say it's on the same level with only 16 tracks?

no entiendo casi nada de inglés pero esta bien explicado lo pondré otra ves

What exactly is the crop pattern option for?

Can I record from external source while using pattern sequencer?

Wu Tang vibes!

@@malobeats ya for a machine known for the FX, I feel like they skimped on the ability to use FX on individual pads with only 4 bus FX for all... would have been nice to be able to effect each pad separate... including a sidechain option... also wish you could nudge sounds off beat too, not just play them in, like a step sequencer view and parameter locks would blow the mind...

I'm running into a problem with my sample chops. After jamming a loop out a couple times it will play bits of other pads which I'm not currently pressing. Same issue when sequencing, it plays the chops smoothly 1 or 2 times but will randomly play other pads without me pressing them? It seems to be completely random, sometimes it will happen on the 3rd bar, sometimes on the 4th bar etc... Can't figure out why this is happening 😢

Nice! Was watching this video as i struggle with quantise settings and just end up doing everything un quantised but i struggle not playing on the grid but i want really swung beats. Am i better off messing with the percentage of quantise or using the swing setting? I ended up learning on your video that you can record the 16 levels in pattern mode! I thought you had to resample the levels! I always just tried to be careful with the velocity of my hits!

Hey brother thank you so much for dropping by and taking the time to watch the video, and I would recommend just messing with the percentage of the quantization to get a better feel and groove since I feel like the shuffle feature is not as useful since I don’t hear much of a difference. And yes you are able to record the 16 level velocity mode in pattern mode which has been very useful since I’m always on the full level pad function and every now and then I will use the 16 level mode.
