The only sp that can do that is the sp505, but If you had a 505 and a 606, then you'd be set!!

I think he means pitch-tuning, not the chromatic pitch feature of the 505. 505 cannot pitch tune either, 202 is the only SP with pitch tuning.

I might get flamed for this but **** it, I know its the truth. Dubstep was born out of the 505. Boss had the BPM detect on lock in that model.

all the roland/boss SP samplers blow donkey dicks when it comes to time-stretching samples no matter which model... end of story. i still love my sp-303 for lo-fi effects combined with my mpc though. :-D

pretty sure the 606 is the only sp with mute groups, but i'll let illgreen verify that

Yup, you're right. 606 has up to 12 mute groups. Wished the 505 had them, then I would'nt have sold it.
