SP-606...

Does anyone else have one of these? and if so... Have you tried using a DI box on the main output to try to amplify to better levels, and were the results good or what?

i have one and no ive never tried that... head over to www.sp-forums.com and search the sp-606 section... u may stuble across it...

but if getting a better signal is what you're after try using the digi coax hookup!!

*pulls hair out*

ughh....why only 4 tracks on dis beast????

haha i know... u gotta be clever with it too... not to mentiopn it only has 8 voices... but any 303 user or an original SP12/1200 user knows that 8 voices can be worked...

i admit tho... i was pissed when the 404 came out with 12 voices... and 1 seq... what type of sense did that make...

yeah I always wondered why they did that once I heard they weren't velocity... lol, motorized faders though, cant cheap out and put the crappy manual ones.. lmao.

im actually waiting for an update just to see them play with the wounded mouse some more. maschine; my new baby, is what the sp606 was meant to be. roland made the varios to further the insult to my wife watching me purchase and sell their halflings.

fn roland, lol...

every few months this clown discovers a new product and comes on here to talk shit about how no other thing exists that is as good as what he just bought. Man, what will it be next... maschine must be what? the third thing now you came on this forum to say how much better it is? look at your user name you fool. gtfo if you dont like the MPC series.

I had a sp 606 very cool box was like my baby mv 8000 4 tracks wasn't to bad but song mode kinda was a pain ...I enjoyed it wish I didn't sell it tho

Whats cool about the SP-606 is that with its USB you can sample anything from your computer, even from the internet. Its like sampling from the headphone jack from your server but better quality.

Also you can use it as a controller for Ableton or any production software and sample in your work to work on it as stand-alone. Plus it can act as a controller and stand-alone at the sametime without the use of a soundcard or audio interface.

On a last note, I don't see a use for a DI box, most of the effects come with a direct signal feature to balanced out the wet and dry signals.

damn, you can use it to trigger drum rack sounds in ableton???

yeah midi is dope with it... i used it with reason for a long time till i got a keyboard
