"Any of you producer gearheads gonna scoop up an SP2400?"


  

          

Here's the site for those who weren't aware:

https://www.islainstruments.com/product/sp-2400/

I'm curious to see if some real SP1200 professionals (like Pete Rock or Easy Mo' Bee) are gonna rock with that joint?

Here's a YouTube showing the specs of the device. You can check other videos to hear it:

For the software heads, Low Hiss is releasing a software standalone version of the SP1200 for mobile and computer (both Mac and PC) and it has cloud storage. It's in beta mode right now but you can test them out at a very, very low price:

You can check out YouTube vids of the software on the site.

What do y'all think?

The 2400 definitely looks cool but if/when I go back on the hardware route, I'd want an older MPC model or an ASR-10.

I would think marketing this with the old, well-known SP users would be the key to this not being a flop. Show them using it how they used to use the 12 or 1200, and also how they'd integrate it into their current software setups. I haven't really dug through their site to know if they're doing all of this already.

Time and PC technology has passed 12-bit hardware (and now 16-bit) samples some time ago. This machine does 24-bit 48khz, but so does my DAW and I already own that.

I've got an ASR-X and an MPC-1000 that are gathering dust because my DAW does their jobs.

The SP app looks cool but I like the limitations that come with hardware samplers. If I'm rocking with software I'd rather just open Ableton or Koala.
