Sick tutorial! Would love to see more on the S2400 👍

[@ScottBrio]

@@ryanwintersmusic glad you enjoyed it- I’ll be making more in the future!

[@kreativetoonsTeam]

Nice vid my friend! You opened up another side to this machine for me! Salute

[@ISLAInstruments]

Great stuff Scott!!

[@EynoHuDunhit]

Great content Scott! More to the machine than on paper.

[@backseatsamurai]

Glad I found your channel!! My S2400 is arriving somtime around June. I really appreciate the tutorial, as I will be learning beat making with this as my first piece of hardware. I will definitely be watching your video at least a few times to copy and learn from you and others. Thanx again.

[@ScottBrio]

Oh man you’re gonna love it! It’s such a fun, awesome sounding box. Really inspiring and a ton of happy accidents. I’m glad you found my channel helpful! I’m just getting started with the S2400 tutorials so there’ll be a lot more soon! Cheers!

[@sock_park]

Holy moley this is awesome. Thank u!

[@JohnDoe-yr5tg]

Are you going to do any videos making a song from scratch with the new updates bit confusing

[@ScottBrio]

Yes! I've got this at the top of my list of videos to make :)

12:57 would prefer dial in bass with a high pass filter resonance. are HPFs not in the cards for this?

[@ScottBrio]

There are high pass, band pass, and low pass filter options available for each pad/track in the filter settings. Is that what you mean?

[@n_o_]

@@ScottBrio ah ok, i wasn't sure what was avail on this box, good to hear its all three altho i'd also love a notch. anyway definitely try using HPF resonance to dial in the bass -- it lets you boost the bottom without dampening the growl, and also lifts basslines out of kick mud...

[@ScottBrio]

@@n_o_ Yep, I do this all the time! A notch would be nice however I find that I'm able to "mix" a bit in the S2400 using the filter knobs and resonance, just like you said- boosting the resonant frequencies of bass, high hats, synths, etc. The filters sound fantastic!

[@willdahbe]

Awesome content! Haven't seen anyone cover these features or they presented in a way which I couldn't sit through because they all play like a standard manufacturer description from an online retail store. Cool as hell to see how envelopes are displayed and filter setting per pad are programed!

[@ScottBrio]

So glad you enjoyed it! I do try to make them relatable. More to come soon- stay tuned!! 🙌🏼

[@Hiphophouse90]

great stuff man !! bass line fantastic >

[@ScottBrio]

Yoooo thanks dude! Haha This things wicked for bass lines 😜🙌🏼

[@antlarockofficial]

Yoooo Scott! Nice video. Defo need one. Defo need to come hang.

[@ScottBrio]

Thanks dude! This thing is an absolute must have, and I don’t say that often. Come hang ASAP please! Got a new spot in the Mission so I’ll be close to the club 😎🥳

[@antlarockofficial]

@@ScottBrio on it this year!

S2400 looks fun

[@beangm]

nice video -- can you trigger the 2400 via midi to play that sample across a keyboard? Is it also multi timbral (ie how many samples could you trigger at once externally) assuming 8 outs? ty !

[@ScottBrio]

You’ve got 8 stereo channels and outputs. If you use all mono samples, you could theoretically have 16 samples playing but you’re limited to squeezing them all out of the 8 channel outputs. The S2400 will play multiple sounds at once, but again you’re limited by how many you can fit through the 8 channels, meaning sounds inevitably start cutting each other off. This is a super cool effect called choke grouping. I just made a video on it if you’re curious: kzbin.info/www/bejne/an-4h5eijK6Wd8k Also, the S2400 will play sounds chromatically buy changing the MIDI mode to “pitched” on any give pad. Glad you enjoyed the video! Cheers! 🍻

[@ME-ru4hv]

way to dig in and share! imagine if he put analogue filters on each track tho

[@AlphaToker]

Please post the link to where those E-MU sample packs are.

[@mojoenicosia1026]

Dope !!!! Thank You !!!

[@difflocktwo]

Button/knob combos always seem to difficult to press. Like the force is too high. I think a good dedicated button near a knob would be much more ergonomic. Or do like the older ipods were done.

[@ScottBrio]

Hmmm not sure what you’re experiencing- the knobs and and buttons feel very nice and high quality on my unit. They’re pro AV switches!

[@difflocktwo]

@@ScottBrio I mean a knob that is also a button is usually too high force to press. Especially when you need to press it a lot.
