SP-2400 Sampler – E-Mu SP-1200 Clone

its was all about the analog filter card but that has been delayed; but these cards are approx 3/4 the price of the 2400 itself; the intro price is approx 1/3rd the 2400 price

Just bought the white one yesterday. Is coming home next week hopefully. Can't wait!

its def one of the best sounding modern samplers

Just arrived! This is the shit! Pretty fast workflow and incredible sound.
I have a question tho.
So I sequenced an external synth with it and now I want to record the synth sound to audio. I got it connected to inputs 1&2 but when I go to sample I cannot run the sequence. Any tips?
Also, I cannot use midi controller while in sampling either.

Ok. Someone gave me the answer. You have to bounce the pattern with the midi part in solo.

Yes it is! and very inspiring. I've already completed 5 beats (full songs) in the 3 days I have it. Which for me is a lot.

i gotta say i dont think the 2400 looks good in white; i think they should of done a grey sp1200 skin instead

I will politely disagree. I think it is gorgeous in white. Plus the white is shinny not matte as the black. Less visible fingerprints.

no problem with disagreement but surely if the white is shiney it will show even more fingerprints then a matte finish?

I don't think is the case. In this particular machine the shinny laquer over the metal is less fingerprint prone than the matte one. I also asked a guy on youtube that had both faceplate and told me the same thing I was suspecting. Also you can watch videos and you'll see the difference. If you have your fingers dirty with car grease then yes white would be more prone to get dirty, but I hope no one is using the machine after coming from the shop...
Not to mention that I really like, personal preference of course, the creamy white like in old mpcs and 909s etc
