Roland SP-404MKII - $420 (SE Portland)

Roland SP-404MKII in mint condition.
This has only seen a few hours of use.
I just never found the time to learn to use it properly.
It's sat on a shelf in a smoke free home since May of 2022.
Includes original box and adapter, but I've misplaced the manual.
Price is firm.
Cash only please, with the exception of the following possible trades (+/- cash): Tascam Model 12, Fender Tone Master amps (anything bigger than the Princeton), the right set of studio monitors.

This article was Written By Our Product Research Team Get to know them! The Roland SP-404MKII Linear Wave Sampler is the most powerful incarnation of Roland's beloved sampling workstation ever devised.
Dual headphone outputs streamline collaboration with other musicians without needing a mixer or separate headphone amplifier to monitor your sampling session.
An updated resampling workflow makes it simple to re-record patterns and effects layers; plus, with a generous selection of new effects on top of classic SP effects, the sound design potential is vast.
Factor in its OLED screen for visual sample editing, the ability to tap out edit points in real time, pattern sequencing to turn ideas into full performances, and much more, and it's clear the Roland SP-404MKII stands out as a leader among portable sampling workstations.

0 Update Overview Roland SP-404MKII Linear Wave Sampler | First Impression Introducing the Roland SP-404MKII Creative Sampler and Effector SP-404MKII Sample Chop with Dibiase Sample or stream to mobile devices via USB-C Here's a first among portable sample workstations: the SP-404MKII is equipped with a USB-C port to connect to your mobile device.
You can sample audio from mobile apps, videos you've recorded, or any other audio source from your device.
You can also stream audio to your device directly from the SP-404MKII.
Finally, the USB port allows you to connect with the SP App on your computer for sample editing and project management.
All the effects you need Sample artists at Sweetwater have long been fans of the SP series' effects like Vinyl Simulation and DJFX Looper, and the SP-404MKII adds even more ear candy to the mix.
Effects such as Lo-fi, Cassette Simulation, and Resonator expand your creative potential, and the Mic/Guitar input can tap into Vocoder, Auto-Tune, and Guitar Amp Simulator effects.
And thanks to the SP-404MKII's updated resampling workflow, it's faster than ever to process audio through effects and bring the resampled audio into your arrangement.
DJ mode encourages live performance Gigging electronic musicians who typically juggle two SP sampling workstations will rejoice at the SP-404MKII's new DJ mode.
It offers an all-new approach for live performance, allowing you to manipulate and mix two audio files with eight pad controllers per side.
Speaking of live performance, the SP-404MKII allows you to chain patterns together manually, save a sequence of patterns chained together for playback, or even link up to four pads to be triggered by a single pad.
Powerful version 3 updates Since its release in 2021, the SP-404 Mk2 has been the tool of choice for performance-based beatmakers and creative musicians worldwide.
And now, with version 3, this sampler workstation is more powerful than ever.
For starters, v3 yields improved clock timing and adjustable delay on the unit's MIDI clock output, providing lock-tight synchronization with external instruments.
You get motion recording for all effects parameters, plus you can easily mute and unmute samples during a performance and capture the mute actions in sequences.
You get one-shot playback, allowing you to perform with long, evolving samples while jamming with short loops underneath.
You can also convert patterns into samples, which transforms complex programming into manageable loops for quick song building.
Our favorite v3 feature here at Sweetwater is its expanded DJ mode, which lets you manipulate eight cue points per sample, adjust fader curves, sync external MIDI instruments, assign time stretches, and more.
Moreover, version 3 includes a sizeable stable of workflow enhancements, such as quantize after recording, finer tempo setting range, default MFX setups, and a whole lot more.
The SP-404MKII editor/librarian software has also been updated with faster import/export speed and AU3/ VST3 plug-in support.
