isnt this a funny fact? I had this conversation today with someone explaining me that "Sp 404 Mk2 is more suited for boom bap beats etc etc" and I was like "but why? cant you do anything you want with it?" and this video makes me feel good about staying a bit stubborn in the argumentation :-) As if most devices are not completely amazing regarding possibilities. It's mainly the users ability to envision something and not the machine doing it in the end. Cant write it bette with my poor English
For a first jam, this is pretty darned good. I just took delivery of an SP-404 MkII for my own ambient project, and am looking forward to my first jam with it too.
Nice one! Did that background sound scape come from that other Microcosm thing? I've been practicing at the 404! I just recently got it and all these type of videos help! I'm assuming you're using samples? But are they sound patterns you made in the SP?
The buttons are a lot harder than the older sp variants. I have changed the velocity sensitivity, but there are times when I still press down too softly and the sound doesn't trigger. I think that will come with time tho...
Thanks for the comment. The loops isn't quite seamless. I'm using the envelope to get rid of any clipping and then the gap is being masked by the reverb from the pedal.
Didn’t expect to hear ambient music from a 404. Nicely done.

Interesting....why should a equipment limit creativity....sampling can be used in many ways. This music is beautiful
So good. You are a joy to listen to on the 404. Can't wait to get mine. So happy to see more people offering up the ambient. Thank you.
This reminds me of Cinematic Orchestra or Sigur Ros!
Always nice to see more ambient on the mkii and thanks for sharing.
My favourite MK2 video on YT. Would love to see more of this ⭐️
Thanks man. I'm working on some new stuff atm. PS. I've been a follower of you on insta for a while. Keep up the good work!
Amazing demo. I always though that this kind of gear could be more than hip hop… and boum! You did it! Amazing
And we need a tutorial ! Beautiful ✨
Not only this is gorgeous, but you also published on my birthday :)
Lovely stuff!
beautiful! nice to hear something different from the usual lofi hip hop on the 404.
Mmmmm tasty vibes. I'm a big fan of ambient on the SP404. You didn't disappoint.

Beautiful!!!
Sounds like 2814. Dope man.
this is very chill.... i love this jam
Very soothing to wake up to this morning :-)
Beautiful!
Wow! These sort videos keep me from cancelling my sp404 order.
wonderful
Superb, very nicely done and so refreshing to see hear thus other than some same old beat garbage. Far more creative and well thought out.
That Digi ped is the biz I want one bad!
Beautiful
so relaxing! Great job it's clear that you're a musician
At last, 404 out of the boom bap trap. ;)

This is amazing. great inspiration . On another note, do you find that the buttons are quite stiff and you miss beats? thanks

beautiful. how's your routing for this setup?
I have to ask, how did you get a seemless loop with the drones? I'm having trouble getting it to loop well
Thanks for the comment. The loops isn't quite seamless. I'm using the envelope to get rid of any clipping and then the gap is being masked by the reverb from the pedal.
@@TonyJamesMorton okay sweet thanks for the info, and awesome jam man, definitely inspired me to go make something
Also, what kind of samples did you use? This is exactly the same stuff that I'm going for in my music, just not sure how to get there with the sp lol
@@rklaybeats5687 There's some chopped up piano and vocal chops that I sampled. The percussion loop is off splice I think. Various sources overall.
How did you connect sp to hologram?
bruh
