Chapter 7. Other Functions
You can enable the Protect setting to prevent samples or patterns
from being overwritten or erased accidentally.
Protecting All Samples and Patterns
1.
While holding down [REMAIN], turn on the power.
“P.on” appears in the display; the samples and patterns of
banks A–J are now protected.
If you use the memory card on the same SP-404 unit, the card
banks will be protected. However, if you use the same memory
card on another device or computer, the banks of that card will
not be protected.
This setting is remembered even after you turn off the power.
Protecting the Preset Samples and
Patterns (Sample Bank A, Pattern
Bank A)
1.
While holding down BANK [A] and [REMAIN], turn on the
power.
“A.on” appears in the display; the samples and patterns of bank
A are now protected.
This setting is remembered even after you turn off the power.
With the factory settings, sample bank A and pattern bank A
are protected.
With the factory settings, samples are assigned to pads 1 and 2
of sample bank B, but these samples are not protected.
Canceling the Protect Setting
1.
While holding down [CANCEL], turn on the power.
“P.oF” appears in the display; the samples and patterns of
banks A–J are now unprotected.
The factory-set samples and patterns will no longer be
protected. If you erase or modify them, it will not be possible to
restore their factory-set state. (p. 12)
This setting is remembered even after you turn off the power.
Performing this operation will erase all samples and patterns
from internal memory (banks A and B).
You cannot restore the factory-set samples and patterns. (p. 12)
You can’t initialize if the Protect setting is on. (“Prt” appears in
the display.)
1.
While holding down [CANCEL], [REMAIN], and [DEL], turn
on the power.
“ini” appears in the display and [REC] begins blinking.
If you decide to cancel at this point, simply turn off the power.
2.
If you are sure you want to initialize the internal memory,
press [REC].
[REC] lights, and the dot in the display begins blinking.
Once the initialization is complete, the dot goes dark.
Never turn off the power while the dot is blinking. Doing so
may damage the data.
After initialization, the Protect setting will be enabled.
1.
While holding down [MARK], turn on the power.
The version number is indicated in the display.
Press [CANCEL] to return to normal operation.
The internal processing of the SP-404 can be modified in order to
adjust the overall volume.
1.
Hold down [CANCEL] while you also hold down [START/
END/LEVEL], and turn the CTRL 3 knob.
Range: -3 dB, 0 dB, 3 dB, 6 dB, 9 dB, 12 dB
The SP-404 has a maximum polyphony of twelve notes. There
will be a significant difference in the volume depending on the
number of notes (one to twelve) being played simultaneously.
If you play only a few pads simultaneously, or if you've
connected the SP-404 to a DJ mixer or the like and are using it as
an effects processor, you can increase this internal processing
level to obtain a higher level of output.
If you play numerous pads simultaneously and distortion
occurs in the sound, decrease this internal processing level.
When you turn on the power, this will always be set to 0 dB.
