MPC Sample vs SP-404MKII: One Month Later… Which One Wins?

Episode notes

This week we sit down after a full month with the MPC Sample to ask a simple question: what actually holds up once the novelty wears off?We compare it directly with the Roland SP-404MKII, exploring workflow, sampling approaches, creative limitations, and how each device shapes the way you make music.This isn’t a spec breakdown. It’s a conversation about lived experience: what feels fast, what feels inspiring, and where friction starts to appear.After that, we move into a round robin discussion:What’s one thing you’d like to unlearn in your DAW workflow?A conversation about habits, defaults, and the things we carry long after they’ve stopped serving us.Join the discussion in our Discord and let us know:MPC or SP? And what are you trying to unlearn?Willebrant has a new EP out, check it here: to our Patrons who support what we do:Audionauts: Abby, Bendu, David Svrjcek, Josh Wittman, Paul Ledbrook, Matt Donatelli and Stephen SetzepfandtLars Haur - Audionaut ProducerJonathan Goode - Audionaut ProducerJoin the conversation: audionauticsounds@gmail.com Twitter @Audionautic Instagram: @audionauticsoundsDiscord:
