Exploring SP-404MKII MIDI Srequencing
It's hard to believe there are still aspects of the SP-404MKII that I haven't checked out yet, but here we are! This one is actually (hopefully) going to be pretty important to my live rig, as external MIDI sequencing directly on the 404 would mean that I could control my VE-500 pitch correction, and progress the lighting cues for my live set all from the 404. After playing around for a bit, it seems that it will probably be pretty simple. This video was just intended to cover the basics, but I'll be covering it more in the future! Enjoy the video :)
