sp 404 or sp 606

Post by dlluarro »

I need to know if the sp606 can trigger long samples (more than 3 minutes long). Seems like the sp 404 can do this (reading directly for the compactflash card), but i don't know if sp 606 can.

I need to play long samples live in a show, like rithms, or entire songs and do performance with other machines and instrument while the sample is playing. The sp 404 can but i think that the specifications of the 606 are more interesting than the 404, and i have enough money for buy the 606

Thanks in advance

(sorry my english is very bad)

hey man - I use 2 sp 606's on stage and they are perfect for triggering long samples.

The 606 has:

more/better pads

more effects

D-beam controller

1/4 inch connections (not rca's)

Works with a computer

The 404 is a DJ tool. The 606 is a live tool that is also great in the studio. Also, they are the most underused and underrated bit of kit out there - most ppl say to us when we play out - 'what are those things?', which is always nice!
