The SP-404 MKII is the long-awaited sequel to one of the most iconic samplers ever created – the SP-404. Revered for its unique sampling capabilities and the now legendary ‘Lo-Fi’ effect; the original set a benchmark in the world of samplers. The MKII was developed through community feedback to create the ultimate sampler. Back and better than ever. The SP-404MKII features a crisp new OLED display with upgraded pads for enhanced expression and a fully expanded effects section. Chop and stretch samples with ease, thanks to the visual waveform editor and an intuitive menu system that will keep you focused on your creativity. From the studio to the stage, the MKII provides a rapid workflow with quick startup and load times. The original design has been revamped for the modern era, with 17 velocity-sensitive RGB pads with no-click playability for a smooth and natural touch. All the classic SP effects are back including Vinyl Simulator and DJFX looper as well as new additions such as Lo-Fi, Cassette Simulator, Resonator effects, Auto Pitch and even a Guitar Amp Simulator (when used with the guitar/mic input). We all know SP users love to customise their samplers, so Roland has made this easier than ever. Owners of the new SP-404MKII can download a faceplate template to create their own custom overlays, as well as customise your startup screen with a personalised logo. It is also highly portable thanks to its lightweight design and ability to be powered via AA or mobile batteries.

Stuff About Roland

Roland, based in Japan, is one of the true giants of electronic music history. They created icons like the TR-808, TR-909, TB-303, Juno and Jupiter synths, each of which helped shape entire genres. Modern lines such as AIRA, Boutique, and Fantom keep those sounds alive while adding fresh capabilities. Roland’s legacy is reliability, innovation and cultural impact. From techno to hip hop to pop, you can’t escape the influence of Roland instruments.

The Important stuff

Drum Machine

A Drum Machine is an electronic instrument that creates drum and percussion sounds without the need for a live drummer. Using built-in samples, synthesis, or digital modelling, drum machines can produce anything from realistic acoustic kits to electronic beats and experimental rhythms.

They often include step sequencers, pattern memory, effects, and performance controls, making them ideal for creating loops, backing tracks, or full rhythm arrangements. Modern drum machines may also connect via MIDI or USB for use with other gear and software.

Used in styles ranging from hip-hop and dance music to rock and experimental genres, drum machines are a cornerstone of modern music production and live performance.
