Welcome to Sonic Curtain.
Here you will find experiments with sampling, looping, synthesis, etc. This is my video 'audio diary'.
I’m pretty obsessed with this kind of stuff and decided to chronicle my activities on this channel.

Roland SP-404 mk2 Dark Post Rock Jam
HI UA-cam. I'm back....for now. I have been really short on time. I'm recording a new record, my day job has been nuts, I spent all summer remodeling my house....life. This jam is a "post rock" jam....filled to the brim with dark textures, guitars, vocals, bass....404 goodness! I hope you enjoy.
Take care!

SP-404 mk2 Vinyl Ambient Sampling
Переглядів 2272 місяці тому
HI UA-cam. Busiest week of the year at my day job. Figured I'd at least turn on the 404 and see what's up. This video is me needle dropping on a record that has symphonic national anthems. The samples in the 404 are mangled by the DJFX Looper and the wonderful Ko-Da-Ma effect. Just by using these two effects and pitching the samples, a whole world of bizarre soundscapes arrives at your ears! Th...
SP-404 mk 2 Experimental Dark Ambient Vinyl Manipulations
Переглядів 2542 місяці тому
Hi UA-cam. Here we have an old Bond soundtrack on vinyl running into the 404, which is manipulating the sounds with effects. The samples, other than the percussion elements, are sampled and resampled (mangled) from the vinyl. Next video will be further pairing of the INCREDIBLE Koala Sampler and the Roland SP-404 mk2. My (feeble) mind is blown at the power of these two instruments running toget...
Roland SP-404 mk2 and Koala Sampler Experimental jam
Переглядів 1822 місяці тому
HI UA-cam! So, I was hoping to create more jams for you all, but a major renovation to my house has begun. As you may know if you're a homeowner of a house built in 1940, things go nutty and unexpected madness comes tumbling out of the walls. Anyhow, here's a jam with Koala Sampler and the 404 mk2, connected via USB-C. Really liking this pairing! The two samples on the 404 are mangled sequences...
Roland SP-404 mk 2 Koala Workflow For Experimental Music
Переглядів 1,4 тис.3 місяці тому
HI UA-cam. Me again. So, I am pretty stoked about pairing the 404 mk2 with Koala Sampler! I am running the 404 into the iPad running Koala Sampler via USB C. The transfer of audio is BIDIRECTIONAL, so you can sample the 404 into Koala and then resample it back into the 404. Koala is dead simple to use and has some pretty cool effects/sample manipulation features. The sequencer on Koala is very ...

Переглядів 2703 місяці тому
IH UA-cam. Well, my busiest season at my "Day Job" has concluded....I think! More time for videos? I hope. I also just wrapped up a MASSIVE project, which was remixing and remastering around 100 songs for my band.... Anyhow, so, I discovered something...KOALA SAMPLER! Yes, you have probably known about this piece of software for a long time. I just found it! pretty darn awesome.... This jam fea...
Roland Sp-404 mk2 Experimental Abstract Jam Found Sounds
Переглядів 2544 місяці тому
Hi UA-cam. It's been awhile! I am in a band and we have recorded around 100 songs over the last 10-15 years and I have been going back and remixing and remastering all of them! Quite an undertaking indeed! This video is an experimental jam made up of found sounds (mostly recorded on my zoom h6 recorder in the garage) that have been resampled and manipulated with the 404. I'll do a video on the ...

Hi UA-cam: Here's a little sampling of a $1.00 sound effects record and then some sound design on the 404 with resampling/effects. At the end there is an experimental/abstract jam. Hope you dig! thanks for your support! -Sonic Curtain
Roland SP-404 mk2 Sound Design
Переглядів 1,4 тис.5 місяців тому
HI UA-cam: Well, in this pretty uninspiring video (sorry, I'm exhausted...), I decided to transform one sample into a few other sounds. I was experimenting with resampling in "Chromatic mode", something that I did not know one could do! Anyhow, this is just another little video from my audio diary! Thanks for your support! -Sonic Curtain
Roland SP-404 mk2 Resampling Sound Design with One Sample
Переглядів 4946 місяців тому
Hi UA-cam. Today's video is me taking a simple Roland 808 clap and resampling that one sample into some other types of sounds. The jam at the end of this video pretty much sucks, but lots of my viewers want more "tutorial" type videos. Brief announcement: if you'd like to listen to my NEW ALBUM on youTube and watch awesome music videos that were made for each tune by @misssarahruth, please visi...
Boss RC-505 mk2 Experimental Vinyl Looping- Dark Abstract / Ambient
Переглядів 2556 місяців тому
HI UA-cam. I hooked up my turntable to the Boss RC-505 mk2 loop station. While many people use the 505 to loops their beatboxing/singing/guitars/percussion/pop-song/whatever, I use it for more textural and experimental duties. This is the fabulous DEATH WISH 2 soundtrack, created by Jimmy Page (of all people....). I ran some of the wax into the 505's effects and looped them. I then ran the loop...

Переглядів 7036 місяців тому
HI UA-cam: Off of work today, so I grabbed my Rode NT-1a mic, a Rolls Preamp, and decided to sample some various things in the laboratory to make a jam. The jam wasn't as good as I had hoped, but OH WELL. I hope you enjoy this video! With a microphone and an SP-404 mk2, you have yourself a small experimental recording studio! Thanks for your support! If you like what I do and want to buy me a c...

HI UA-cam! I just released a new sample pack on soniccurtain.bandcamp.com If you'd like to pick up a pack, I use the money for gasoline.... This video is some bespoke drum beat samples and synth textures sampled into the 404 and effected with the INSANE 404 effects! Sorry for the stagnation in getting new videos. I just release two major projects and have an album coming out on 2/24/2024. If yo...

HI UA-cam: Tonight I present a little dark ambient jam. This jam is comprised of 4 pads of the same drone sample, each starting at different points and pitched in octaves. I also have 4 percussion samples. The DJFX effect is used on the drones and delay/reverb on the "drums". Hope you enjoy!

Dude this is outstanding. Wow!
Thanks a ton! I really love using this ring as a mini recording studio! I appreciate your comment
I learned a whole lot thank you. Make more
Thanks so much! I’m sure in will make more like this one.
0h my G! I love this and I want more!
❤️❤️❤️
Godspeed YOU, Black Emperor!
No, Godspeed YOU, Black Emporor! 🙏🙏
Love the guitar part at 2:46 Nice jam, it gives me an industrial/gothic feeling
Awesome! Thanks for tuning in and the great comment. I appreciate it!
I dig it, very Industrial.
Thanks so much!!!!
Nice 👍
Thanks ✌
Amazing!
Thanks!🙏
Good sound design ! Your thumbnail has a red sp404 is that a custom or something ?
Hey! Thanks for the comment! No, those are filters for the graphic design. I know you can customize faceplates pretty easily, but I have never done so.
This is excellent! The piece of gear I regret selling most was my 404sx, that was almost a decade ago. Now I have the mkII on the way and very excited to jump back in. I’ll be returning to your videos for headphone euphoria and inspiration ❤
Glad you are inspired by my work! Enjoy the 404 mk2! Happy for you!!
Best 404 video
Wow! Thanks so much. I really appreciate your support!
Cool sampling process!
Glad you like it!
👍🏼⚙️⚒️🎚️
⚡️⚡️🙌⚡️⚡️
Inspiring stuff for another proud owner of mighty SP404mk2 here! 👏
🙌 that’s so much for the comment! I’ve been doing some heavy renovations to my house, so I should hopefully be back to making videos soon!
Love this! Now THAT’S sound manglin’😊 Sub!
Awesome! Thank you!🙏
Great!!!
Thanks!😊
Great! nice to hear other than the eternal Hiphop Boombap blobs. This machine can do so much more! ❤🤘🏼
Yeah, 404mk2 is a beast! It’s like a portable experimental recording studio!
Great sample mangling! Thank you Mr Curtain!
You are welcome! More to come!
dig it - are the sp404 and 505 synced via midi or just run independently?
Hey. Running independently. Glad you liked it!
Very clever. Love it ! 👏👏🎶
Thank you very much!
Love seeing your process. Thank you for sharing!
Ko-Da-Ma is such a beauty
Indeeeeeeed!
Huge and atmospheric ✨✨👌 sweet jam!
THANKS THANKS THANKS!!!
This video convinced me of buying a sp404
Thanks so much for this encouraging comment! @rolandchannel
Which Bond movie soundtrack? If it's one of the Roger Moore ones, it might have improved the film is THIS was the soundtrack instead. At least there'd be something interesting happening
well, this was a cheap knockoff of 'The Spy Who Loved Me'. I must say though: Moore was MY 007 growing up in the 80's. A View to a Kill was my flick as a kid!
@@Soniccurtain My Bond was Pierce Brosnan, who got two pretty good movies and two...not so good movies
oh my shiz! this gave me feelings!😻
...of terror?!?!?
Beautiful and deep sounds and textures ✨❤️✨👌
Thanks so much for the comment! I really appreciate your support!
Spacemen 3 energy here
Love THEM. Thanks!!!

I assume that when you opened up one wall, you discovered an eldritch horror beyond man's understanding. These things happen!
maaaaaan. I don't wanna go into what all I found. MADNESS. The Old Ones came through the portal in my laundry room....Cthulu is rising.
@@Soniccurtain I tell ya, once those things get established, it's a hell of a time getting them outta there.
Bravo... Great use of my favorites... Very inspiring, thank you
Awesome! thanks so much for commenting and for the support! More videos to come....after my house remodel is under control! OOOOF! =)
Killing the SP-404! So original
Awesome! Thanks a TON for your support!
Great video. Once Koala allows auv3… it’s over!
No idea what auv3 is! I'll investigate!!! Thanks for digging my channel!!
It's also great fun to load KOALA as an AUV3 instrument or effect in a host like AUM or Drambo --Then process the Koala audio with a huge variety of other AUV3 effects before resampling onto SP-404. I love doing that with Unfiltered Audio, Sugar Bytes and Eventide plugins. The possibilities are endless with iPad audio production.
Hey! Wow…..yeah….i’m new to the AuM / Audiobus / App game. I agree though…the possibilities are endless! Discovering that audio is bidirectional between iOS and 404 mk2 via USB totally blew me away!!!
Your voice is the most beautiful instrument of all. Love your tutorials! ♥️
❤️❤️❤️
slamming track man. well done, inspires me to make some music tonight.
Awesome! Glad it was inspiring! 🙏🙏🙏
Excellent demo, very useful, many thanks!
Glad it was helpful! I’m still figuring this out, but I’m excited about the possibilities.
Sweet! Also new 404 update to fix the resample bug!!!!
Oh nice! I should get on some sort of mailing list! Thanks!
@@Soniccurtain ha, all you need is the 404 sub reddit :)
So good
Thanks for watching!
Koala me impressed!!!!!
Blimey!!!
Great 👍
Thanks!!!!!!🙏
Hey i like it can i use it for backsound horror animation please i will make credits to you
Sounds good. Please forward it to me when you’re finished. I look forward to it!
@@Soniccurtain thanks bro But maybe I should provide English subtitles later because I'm from Indonesia
Need more videos!, always look forward to these. You were my inspiration to buy the 404
More to come! I really really appreciate your support and this awesome comment!
Amazing!
You are! ❤️
boc vibes!
🙏👍🙏
Keep coming back to this. It's so good.
Thank you so much! I really genuinely appreciate your support
♥️
❤️❤️❤️
These samples really sounds great! Willing to share them?
Yes of course! I just added them: soniccurtain.bandcamp.com/album/ooze-sampler
Wow, that's an intense sounding jam. Would you be interested in sharing some of those samples? They are dark as hell, I love them.
Sure thing! I just added the samples! soniccurtain.bandcamp.com/album/ooze-sampler
@@Soniccurtain Wow man thanks!!!!
Enjoyed watching you use the SP in this way. Really inspiring.
Thanks so much! I promise to get back to doing more videos! Thanks for your support!
