DOOM OS Manual

Every DOOM OS control on one page. Anything not listed here works as it does on a stock SP-404MKII.

Open DOOM OS

HoldREMAIN+pressSUB PAD

This works from any screen. Press EXIT to close DOOM OS and save your changes.

Getting Started

These steps create a new pattern and give it its first track.

Hold REMAIN and press SUB PAD to open DOOM OS. The step grid appears.
Hold PATTERN SELECT and press an empty pad. A new, empty pattern opens.
Hold SUB PAD. The pads that hold a sample light up.
Tap these pads to audition their samples, then release SUB PAD. The last pad you tapped becomes the pattern's first track.
Tap pads to enter steps. The 16 pads are the 16 steps of the selected track.
Press PATTERN SELECT to start or stop playback.
Turn the CTRL knobs to set the velocity, length and nudge of the notes (see Note Editing).
To add another track, repeat steps 3 and 4.

The step grid: the pattern's tracks down the left, the steps of the bar across, each note a block on its step.

Press RECORD SETTING to open the menus (see TRACK Page and PATTERN Panel).

Existing patterns: after you switch on the SP-404MKII, a saved pattern can be edited only once it has played. Press PATTERN SELECT to play it first; until then, tapping the pads changes nothing.

Switching while it plays: hold PATTERN SELECT and press another pattern's pad. The playing pattern plays to its end, then the new one starts. Until then the screen shows NEXT: A2, and the playing pattern cannot be edited, recorded or bounced. To switch at once, hold SUB PAD as well; with REC on, the new pattern always starts at once. Stopping playback does not cancel the switch: the next start plays the pattern to its end first. To cancel it, select a pattern while playback is stopped.

Note Editing

On the step grid, CTRL 1, CTRL 2 and CTRL 3 set the velocity, length and nudge of notes. Turn a knob with no pad held to set every note on the selected track to the same value. Hold a step's pad while you turn to change that note only.

Whole track One note

Turn VALUE to select the track, then turn a knob.

The step grid with track A9 selected. Turning CTRL 2 makes every note on the track longer, from one step to four.

`CTRL 1`	Velocity of every note
`CTRL 2`	Length of every notein the same steps as for one note
`SHIFT`+`CTRL 2`	Length of every note, finein the same fine steps as for one note, each from its own length
`CTRL 3`	Nudge of every noteat the center position, every note is exactly on its step

Hold the step's pad and turn a knob.

Pad 9 held on track A9. The top line shows VEL 90, LEN and MIC. Turning CTRL 2 makes that one note longer while the others stay the same.

`CTRL 1`	Velocity
`CTRL 2`	Lengthfrom 1/24 of a step to a whole bar, in steps of 1/24 of a step up to one step, 1/12 up to 4 steps, 1/8 up to 9 steps and 1/4 up to a bar; shown in steps: LEN 1.50
`CTRL 3`	Nudgeearlier or later; at the center position, the note is exactly on its step
`SHIFT`+`CTRL 1`	Pitchup to 12 semitones up or down
`SHIFT`+`CTRL 2`	Length, finefrom the note's own length, in steps of 1/60 of a step below one step, 1/24 up to 4 steps and 1/8 above

Note values: while you hold a pad, the top line shows the note's VEL (velocity), LEN (length in steps) and NDG (nudge). Turn a knob with no pad held and the top line shows the selected track's values for two seconds; a value its notes do not share shows as --.

Keep a note selected: hold its pad and press REMAIN. The note stays selected after you release the pad. Press REMAIN again to deselect it.

Undo: each knob turn is one undo step. Press SHIFT+PATTERN SELECT to undo it.

Knob response: the SP-404MKII's Edit Knob Mode setting (SHIFT+pad 13 › SYSTEM › GENERAL, on the SP-404MKII's own screens) sets whether a knob changes a note at once (Direct) or only after it passes the note's current value (Catch). With no pad held, a track whose notes share the value works the same way. A track whose notes differ changes once the knob has turned a little, so touching it by accident leaves the notes as they are.

TRACK Page and PATTERN Panel

The RECORD SETTING button opens two menus: the TRACK page, with the actions and views for the selected track, and the PATTERN panel, with the pattern's settings.

Press RECORD SETTING once to open the TRACK page, a second time to open the PATTERN panel, and a third time to close the menus. Turn VALUE to select a row, and press VALUE to open or change it. Press EXIT to go back one level or to close the menu. Hold RECORD SETTING for 0.6 seconds to open the mixer directly. The menus open on the grid, the mixer, FX Automation, ARP and the instrument screens.

TRACK Page

A5 KICK	The selected track's pad and name. Press `VALUE` here to open the track's instrument editor, or the instrument browser if the pad is emptyon a pad that holds a sample, nothing happens
EDIT	SWAP PAD: assign the track's notes to another pad. PASTE: replace the track's notes with the notes copied with `COPY`; on a pattern with no notes, the pattern takes the length of the copied track. With nothing copied, the screen shows NOTHING COPIED. CLEAR...: delete every note on the track
PATTERN	CLEAR...: delete every track of the pattern
GENERATE	PRINT ARP...: write the arpeggio into the track (see Arpeggiator). CLEAR...: delete every note on the track
VIEWS	Open the MIXER, AUTOMATION, ARP or SIDECHAIN screen

PATTERN Panel

BPM	Tempo
LENGTH	Pattern length in barsthe time signature is shown beside it
REC	Record mode: SINGLE, MULTI or CHROMATIC (see Recording)

Tracks go with their pattern: a track with no notes stays in the pattern. The SP-404MKII's own EXCHANGE moves it with the pattern, and deleting the pattern deletes it.

Actions depend on the screen: EDIT and PATTERN appear on the grid and in the mixer. GENERATE appears in ARP, and on the grid while the arpeggiator plays the selected track.

SWAP PAD: the screen shows TAP THE OTHER PAD. Tap the pad that takes the track's notes, then press VALUE to confirm (CONFIRM) or EXIT to cancel (CANCEL). A pad that already has notes in the pattern cannot be chosen: the screen shows PAD IN USE.

Confirmation: DOOM OS asks before CLEAR... deletes anything. Turn VALUE to YES and press VALUE to confirm, or press EXIT to cancel. PASTE replaces the track's notes without asking.

Undo: press SHIFT+PATTERN SELECT to undo a clear, a paste or a swap. A pattern with more than 512 notes and effect movements is too large for the undo: the question then reads CLEAR PATTERN, NO UNDO, and no edit of that pattern can be undone.

Grid Views

The step grid has five views. Press SHIFT+RECORD SETTING to select the next one; its name appears over the header. DOOM OS opens in the view you selected last.

GRID	Eight tracks, one column per step
LABELS	A line between the track names and the steps
BEATS	Dotted lines between the beats
BOTH	Both lines
ZOOM	Four tracks, larger, each note drawn at its exact position and lengthhold `REMAIN` and turn `VALUE` to zoom: one beat, one bar or two bars

SHIFT + RECORD SETTING steps the grid through GRID, LABELS, BEATS, BOTH and ZOOM, each named over the header; REMAIN + turning VALUE zooms out to one bar and two bars; one more press returns to the grid.

Bars: hold SHIFT and turn VALUE to select the next or previous bar. In the ZOOM view at one beat, this selects the next or previous beat.

Follow: while a pattern plays, the grid follows the playhead from bar to bar. Press SHIFT+HOLD to stay on the selected bar (FOLLOW: OFF); press it again to follow the playhead (FOLLOW: ON).

Piano Roll

The piano roll shows the pitch of every note on the selected track.

On the step grid, press VALUE to open the piano roll for the selected track.
Hold a step's pad and press another pad as a key. The step's note takes that pitch; on an empty step, a note is added.
Turn VALUE to scroll the piano roll. With a step's pad held, turning VALUE changes the note's pitch one semitone at a time.
Press VALUE to close the piano roll. On the grid, a note pitched up shows a mark above it, and a note pitched down a mark below it.

The keys are laid out as in the SP-404MKII's CHROMATIC MODE: pad 5 plays the original pitch, and the pitch rises one semitone per pad, from left to right in each row and from the bottom row to the top. Hold SHIFT and turn VALUE to select another track.

The bass track opens as a piano roll; with pad 8 held, pad 2 and then pad 4 move its note up 5 and 7 semitones; closed again, the note shows a mark above it.

Recording

DOOM OS records what you play on the pads into the pattern while it plays.

Press REC to start rehearsal. REC blinks: the pads play, but nothing is recorded.
Press REC again to start recording. REC lights, and a stopped pattern starts playing.
Play the pads. Press REC again to return to rehearsal.
Press EXIT to stop recording. The pattern keeps playing.

Each take is one undo step: press SHIFT+PATTERN SELECT to undo it. The record mode sets what the pads play and which track they record to:

SINGLE	Every pad plays and records the selected track's sound
MULTI	Each pad plays and records its own track
CHROMATIC	The pads play the selected track's sound as a keyboard, laid out as in the SP-404MKII's CHROMATIC MODE: pad 5 plays the original pitch
16 VEL	The pads play the selected track's sound at sixteen velocities, laid out as in the SP-404MKII's 16 VELOCITY: pad 4 is the loudest, 127, and pad 13 the softest, 1

SINGLE, CHROMATIC and 16 VEL need a selected track; without one, the pads play nothing and the screen shows PICK A SAMPLE. Select the record mode in the PATTERN panel, or with the shortcut:

Menu Shortcut

Press RECORD SETTING twice to open the PATTERN panel, turn VALUE to REC, and press VALUE to select the next mode.

During rehearsal or recording, press SHIFT+REC to select the next mode.

REC shows REHEARSAL, SHIFT + REC selects the next record mode, REC again records while the pattern plays, EXIT stops recording.

Metronome: press SHIFT+pad 9 to select ON (clicks during rehearsal and recording), RECPLAY (clicks whenever the pattern plays) or OFF.

Input quantize: press SHIFT+PATTERN EDIT to open NEW NOTES, the settings for recorded notes: QNT (quantize grid), SWG (swing), VEL (live or fixed velocity) and LEN (live or fixed length).

HOLD: REC turns HOLD off, and HOLD does nothing while REC is on.

Bounce in Place

DOOM OS records the selected track, or everything you hear, with its effects onto an empty pad you tap. A track bounced this way is put in place: its notes are replaced by one note of the new pad.

Shortcut Menu

Select a track and press RESAMPLE. To record everything you hear instead, press SHIFT+RESAMPLE.
Turn VALUE to CUT, TAIL or LOOP.
Tap an empty pad. To use another bank, press its bank button first. RESAMPLE blinks.
Press RESAMPLE or VALUE. The pattern plays from its start while it is recorded; RESAMPLE lights.

Press RECORD SETTING to open the TRACK page and select EDIT › BOUNCE... for the selected track, or PATTERN › BOUNCE... for everything you hear. Then turn VALUE to CUT, TAIL or LOOP, tap an empty pad and press RESAMPLE or VALUE.

RESAMPLE opens the bounce card for the selected track on CUT; VALUE turns to TAIL; an empty pad tapped names the new pad; EXIT returns to the grid without recording.

CUT	The pattern's length
TAIL	The pattern, then on until the effects have rung out (30 seconds at most)
LOOP	The pattern's length, taken from its second pass, so the sample loops as the pattern does

The card: its first line names what is bounced, BOUNCE TRACK C9 or BOUNCE MIX; its second says what becomes of the pattern once you tap a pad: C9 -> C10 for a track, KEEP ORIGINAL PATTERN for everything you hear. It opens on the tail you bounced last. EXIT closes it without recording.

The new pad: the pad you tap. A pad with a sample, or with notes in the pattern, is refused with PAD IN USE, so nothing on another pad is overwritten. A track whose pad holds no sample cannot be bounced: EMPTY PAD. With nothing to bounce, the screen shows TRACK EMPTY or PATTERN EMPTY. The new pad is named BOUNCE and the track's pad, or the pattern's pad for everything you hear. When the bounce ends, the screen names it, for example BOUNCED TO C10.

In place: a track's bounce plays the track solo, then replaces its notes with one note of the new pad on the first step. Press SHIFT+PATTERN SELECT to undo it; the old sample stays on its pad. C10, TRACK KEPT means the bounce is on C10, but the pattern was too large for the undo, so the track was left as it is. A bounce of everything you hear leaves the pattern unchanged.

Stop: press EXIT to stop a bounce. Stopping the pattern, selecting another pattern or turning REC on stops it too; the screen shows BOUNCE STOPPED and no pad is written.

A mono sample bounces as a mono sample when it plays in the middle with no effect on its bus, so the new pad starts exactly when the track did. Panned, or through an effect that is on, it bounces in stereo, as you hear it.

Instruments and Kits

DOOM OS has 20 built-in instruments, from drums to synths, and 11 drum kits. An instrument is loaded onto a pad and plays like a sample on every screen of the SP-404MKII. DOOM OS also saves the instrument's sound to the pad as a sample, so the pad plays in the stock firmware too.

Instrument Browser

On the step grid, hold SUB PAD, tap an empty pad (one that does not light up), and release SUB PAD. The instrument browser opens, with INSTRUMENTS and KITS as tabs at the top.
Turn VALUE to select an instrument.
Hold SUB PAD to preview the selected instrument. Turn VALUE while you hold SUB PAD to preview the next one.
Press VALUE. The instrument is loaded onto the pad, and the instrument editor opens.

Press EXIT in the browser to return to the grid without loading an instrument. Kits are not previewed.

The instrument browser: the INSTRUMENTS and KITS tabs at the top with the position in the list, the selected instrument, FM, named in large letters with its description, TWO OPERATORS, and its picture on the left.

Instrument Editor

The instrument editor sets the instrument's parameters, section by section. To open it for an existing instrument, select its track on the grid and press START/END. START/END lights when the selected track is an instrument track.

Turn VALUE to select a section of the sound, for example TONE, MOD, AMP or OUT.
Turn CTRL 1 to CTRL 3 to set the section's parameters. Hold SHIFT while you turn for finer steps.
Hold SUB PAD to hear the pad.
Press EXIT. DOOM OS saves the sound to the pad and returns to the grid.

In the editor, the pads show the track's steps; tap a pad to turn a step on or off. Blue pads are steps with their own parameter values (see Parameter Locks).

To replace the instrument, press REMAIN in the editor. The browser opens at the current instrument. Turn VALUE to select another instrument: the track plays it at once, also while the pattern plays, and SUB PAD previews it. Nothing is saved yet. Press VALUE to keep the selected instrument. The question names the current instrument, for example REPLACE KICK: turn VALUE to YES and press VALUE. The notes stay on the track and play the new instrument at its default parameters; the previous instrument's parameter values are not kept. Press EXIT in the browser to return to the editor with the original instrument.

To remove an instrument from its pad, delete the pad's sample on the SP-404MKII's own screens: press EXIT to leave DOOM OS, hold DEL, press the pad, and press VALUE. This deletes the instrument's sound from the pad and cannot be undone. The pad is empty again, so hold SUB PAD and tap it to open the instrument browser. The notes stay on the track; to delete them, press DEL on the grid.

START/END opens the FM track's instrument editor; SHIFT + pad 4 turns CHROMATIC on; VALUE selects the MOD section; REMAIN opens the browser at FM, a turn selects Wave, and SHIFT with a turn selects the kits; EXIT returns to the editor unchanged.

Chromatic Mode

Chromatic mode plays the instrument from the pads at different pitches while you edit it.

In the instrument editor, hold SHIFT and press pad 4; the screen shows CHROMATIC ON. The pads are laid out as in the SP-404MKII's CHROMATIC MODE: pad 5 plays the instrument's original pitch, and the pitch rises one semitone per pad, from left to right in each row and from the bottom row to the top. A note sounds while you hold its pad. Nothing is recorded, and the knobs still edit the sound.

Press a BANK button to select the octave: C/H is the instrument's own octave, B/G and A/F are one and two octaves down, and D/I and E/J one and two octaves up. The selected octave's button lights. An instrument plays up to two octaves above or below its original pitch, so in the lowest and highest octaves about half of the pads stay dark and silent. Hold SHIFT and press pad 4 again to turn chromatic mode off; leaving the editor also turns it off.

Drum Kits

A drum kit loads a set of drum sounds into a bank, one sound per pad.

Open the instrument browser. Hold SHIFT and turn VALUE to switch to KITS, then turn VALUE to select a kit.
Press VALUE, then press a BANK button to select the bank for the kit.
Press VALUE. The kit loads into the bank's pads: 16 pads for most kits, 13 to 15 for the 606, CR78, 707 and 727 kits.

Loading into a bank that holds samples: DOOM OS asks first (OVERWRITE BANK A). YES deletes every sample in the bank, including the pads the kit leaves empty, and loads the kit; this cannot be undone. NO leaves the bank unchanged.

Protected banks: a protected bank cannot be loaded; the screen shows BANK PROTECTED.

Knob response: the SP-404MKII's Edit Knob Mode setting (SHIFT+pad 13 › SYSTEM › GENERAL, on the SP-404MKII's own screens) sets whether a knob changes a parameter at once or only after it passes the current value.

The SP-404MKII's own pad tools: an instrument's pad can be renamed, and START/END, TRUNCATE, NORMALIZE and EMPHASIS can be used on it on the SP-404MKII's own screens. The pad stays an instrument: DOOM OS plays the instrument as before, and the SP-404MKII's own screens play the pad's sample as the tool left it. A pad that DOOM OS 0.7.3 silenced after a rename or START/END is an instrument again after the update.

COPY and EXCHANGE: the SP-404MKII's own COPY and EXCHANGE of a pad take the instrument with the pad, also to another project. A copied instrument sounds like its original until you edit either of them; from then on each has its own sound. The track's EQ stays with the track and does not move with the pad. DEL removes the instrument (above).

Export, import and backup: a project's instruments, parameter locks and EQ go with the project when you export, import or copy it (COPY PROJECT), and BACKUP and RESTORE also carry the DOOM OS settings. Restoring a backup made with the stock firmware or an earlier DOOM OS keeps the instruments and EQ that are on the SP-404MKII, and importing a project exported with them keeps the instruments the SP-404MKII has for that project number. To take a project's instruments and EQ to another SP-404MKII, export and import the project on the SP-404MKII itself.

Parameter Locks

Set instrument parameters independently for each step: tune a kick differently on every beat, or lengthen the decay on one step only. Parameter locks work on instrument tracks, whose pad holds a DOOM OS instrument.

On the step grid, select an instrument track and press MARK, or press MARK in the instrument editor.
Tap a step that holds a note and set its parameters. Do the same for as many steps as you like.
Press MARK to save the changes with the project. Steps with parameter locks have blue pads. To discard the changes instead, press EXIT.

MARK on the FM track B3 opens its parameter locks with TAP A STEP in the header; a tapped step, STEP 6, shows the instrument's parameters for that step; EXIT returns to the grid and discards the changes.

Press DEL to reset the selected step to the instrument's parameters. To start on a particular step, hold its pad when you press MARK on the grid.

Only what you change is locked: a step keeps the parameters you set on it. Its other parameters follow the instrument, so later changes to the instrument's sound still reach them.

A lock belongs to its note: when the note moves to another step, its parameter lock moves with it -- with the SHIFT tool of the Pattern Tools, and with the stock QUANTIZE, DUPLICATE and CROP. SWAP PAD, COPY and PASTE of a track keep the locks with its notes within a project, and an undo brings a deleted note back with its lock. When QUANT puts two notes of a track on one step at the same pitch, the louder one stays, with the lock of the other if it has none of its own; the notes of a chord all stay. A copied pattern keeps the locks of the original in the same project, also with the stock COPY and EXCHANGE; a pattern or a track copied to another project arrives without them. When you change the locks of one copy, the other keeps its own.

Playback: parameter locks play when the pattern plays the note, not when you strike the pad by hand. The stock firmware plays the instrument's own sound on every step, without the locks.

Limits: a project holds up to 4096 parameter locks, and one editing session changes up to 64 steps. Past that, the screen shows STEPS FULL, and SWAP PAD and PASTE move the notes without their locks. One track holds up to 126 locks in a pattern; a lock past that stays on its step and does not move with its note.

Arpeggiator

The arpeggiator plays the notes you hold one after another, in time with the tempo. On the ARP screen, the pads are a keyboard for the selected track's sound, in the key and scale you select.

On the step grid, turn VALUE to select a track.
Press RECORD SETTING, turn VALUE to ARP and press VALUE. The ARP screen opens.
Hold one or more pads. The arpeggiator plays the held notes. The pads are laid out as in the SP-404MKII's CHROMATIC MODE: the key's root note is on pad 5, and the notes of the scale rise from left to right in each row and from the bottom row to the top. Pads outside the sound's range stay dark.
Press VALUE to turn the arpeggiator off and play the pads as a keyboard. Press VALUE again to turn it on.
Press HOLD to keep the arpeggio playing after you release the pads; HOLD blinks. Once you have released all pads, the next pads you press start a new arpeggio.
Press EXIT to return to the grid. A held arpeggio keeps playing.

ARP opened from the TRACK page on the FM track: the PLAY page with TYPE UP and RATE 1/16; three pads held light their keys on the keyboard; VALUE turns to the PITCH page with KEY C, SCALE MAJ and OCT 0, and back; EXIT returns to the grid.

Turn VALUE to switch between the PLAY and PITCH pages. Hold SHIFT while you turn a knob for finer steps.

`CTRL 1`	TYPE on the PLAY page, KEY on the PITCH pageTYPE: UP, DOWN, U/D (up and down), RND (random), ORD (the order you pressed the pads), CHRD (all notes together), CONV (from the outside in), DIV (from the middle out), PNKY (each note followed by the highest), THMB (the lowest followed by each note) or U/D+ (up and down, the highest and lowest notes played twice). KEY: C to B
`CTRL 2`	RATE / SCALERATE: 1/4 to 1/32, with triplets. SCALE: 40 scales, among them CHR (chromatic), MAJ, MIN and DOR
`CTRL 3`	GATE / OCTGATE: the length of each note, 1 to 100%. OCT: the held notes repeated up to three octaves up or down

PRINT ARP

PRINT ARP... writes the arpeggio into the selected track as notes.

With the arpeggio playing, press RECORD SETTING.
Turn VALUE to GENERATE and press VALUE, then press VALUE on PRINT ARP....
The question names the selected track, for example PRINT ARP TO TRACK A5. Turn VALUE to YES and press VALUE.

Printing replaces every note on the track over the whole pattern, and turns HOLD off. Press SHIFT+PATTERN SELECT to undo it, unless the screen shows ARP PRINTED, NO UNDO. With no notes held, the screen shows NO ARP.

Clear the track: press DEL on the ARP screen, or select CLEAR... under GENERATE. After a confirmation (CLEAR TRACK A5), every note on the track is deleted.

Settings: the arpeggiator's settings are kept until you switch off the SP-404MKII. Loading another project stops a held arpeggio.

Instrument editor: on an instrument track, press START/END to open the instrument editor; press EXIT to return to ARP.

Pattern Tools

The pattern tools edit all notes of the pattern, or of one track, in one step.

Press PATTERN EDIT to open the pattern tools. The top right shows ALL: the tools work on every track.
To work on one track only, tap that track's pad. Tap it again to return to ALL.
Turn VALUE to select a tool, and press VALUE to open it.
Turn VALUE to set the amount, and press VALUE to apply it. The grid returns. Press EXIT instead to cancel.

QUANT	Quantize notes to a grid1/4, 1/4T, 1/8, 1/8T, 1/16, 1/16T or 1/32
SWING	Swing, 50 (straight) to 75hold `SHIFT` and turn `VALUE` to swing 16th or 8th notes
SHIFT	Move notes by whole steps, −16 to +16notes moved past the end wrap round to the start
DOUBLE	Double the pattern length, repeating its notes and effect movementsapplied at once; always the whole pattern
HALVE	Halve the pattern length; the second half is deletedapplied at once; always the whole pattern
REVERSE	Reverse the notes: the first step becomes the lastapplied at once
HUMAN	Vary the timing and velocity of every note at random, 1 to 30
TRANSP	Transpose notes, −12 to +12 semitones

PATTERN EDIT opens the pattern tools; VALUE opens QUANT, EXIT cancels it; a turn selects SWING and VALUE opens it; PATTERN EDIT returns to the grid; SHIFT + PATTERN EDIT opens NEW NOTES.

Undo: each tool is one undo step. Press SHIFT+PATTERN SELECT to undo it.

Limits: DOUBLE is not possible past 64 bars or 512 notes, and HALVE not on a one-bar pattern; the screen shows NOT POSSIBLE.

NEW NOTES: SHIFT+PATTERN EDIT opens the settings for recorded notes (see Recording).

Mixer

The mixer shows every track of the pattern as a channel strip, with its pan, bus and level.

To open the mixer, hold RECORD SETTING for 0.6 seconds, or press RECORD SETTING, turn VALUE to MIXER and press VALUE. Turn VALUE to select a track, then set its pan, bus and level:

CTRL knobs VALUE

CTRL 1 sets the pan, CTRL 2 the bus (B1, B2 or DRY) and CTRL 3 the level. A knob sets the value at its position at once.

Press VALUE to select pan, bus or level in turn, and turn VALUE to change the value one step at a time. Press EXIT to deselect it.

Holding RECORD SETTING opens the mixer; VALUE selects A2, its name above the strip; presses of VALUE select pan, bus and level in turn, and the next press deselects; SHIFT + RECORD SETTING shows the levels dithered.

Saving: pan, bus and level are the pads' own settings, so the SP-404MKII plays them everywhere. They are saved with the project when you leave the mixer. Setting the pan of a pad set to MONO turns MONO off.

Display style: press SHIFT+RECORD SETTING to select ARROWS, DITHER, ARROWS + NAMES or DITHER + NAMES. With NAMES, the selected strip's full name appears above it for two seconds when you select another strip.

Mute and solo: hold SHIFT and press VALUE to mute or unmute the selected track; press SHIFT+ROLL to play it solo. In the mixer, tap a pad to mute or unmute it, as with SHIFT+REVERSE on the SP-404MKII: a muted pad lights red, a track of the pattern white, another pad with a sample dim white, and the BANK buttons select the bank. Hold REMAIN and press a track's pad to play that track solo, and again to turn solo off. Press EXIT to return to the grid.

EQ

Every pad can have its own 3-band EQ: LOW, MID and HIGH. You set it in the mixer, and its curve shows above the mixer's strips.

In the mixer, press PITCH/SPEED to show the EQ display: the selected track's pad and its EQ curve. Turn VALUE to select another track.
Turn CTRL 1, CTRL 2 and CTRL 3 to set the gain of LOW, MID and HIGH. The first turn opens the EQ screen of the selected track's pad; VALUE opens it without changing a band.
Press VALUE to show ADV: turn VALUE to select LOW, MID or HIGH, and set the band with CTRL 1 to CTRL 3. Press VALUE again to hide ADV.
Press EXIT to return to the EQ display, and again to hide it.

In the mixer, PITCH/SPEED shows the EQ display of the selected track; VALUE opens its EQ screen; CTRL 1 raises LOW and CTRL 3 raises HIGH; VALUE shows ADV, a turn of VALUE selects MID, and CTRL 1 and CTRL 2 set its gain and frequency; EXIT returns to the EQ display with the curve, and EXIT again hides it.

`CTRL 1`	GAIN-12 to +12 dB
`CTRL 2`	FREQ20 Hz to 20 kHz; LOW starts at 100 Hz, MID at 1.2 kHz, HIGH at 8.0 kHz
`CTRL 3`	Q0.3 to 10: the width of MID, the slope of LOW and HIGH

Fine steps: hold SHIFT while you turn a CTRL knob.

Sixteen pads: up to sixteen pads can have an EQ at a time. A pad with all three gains at 0 dB has none. When sixteen pads have one, the gain of a seventeenth pad stays at 0 and the screen shows EQ: 16 PADS.

The pad's EQ: the EQ belongs to the pad, so you hear it in every pattern and on every screen that plays the pad, the SP-404MKII's own screens included. It works on samples and instruments. The mixer's meters and the waveform display show the sound before the EQ.

Saving: each project keeps its own EQ. It is saved when you hide the EQ display or leave the mixer, and it goes with the project when you export, import, copy or back up the project (see Instruments and Kits).

Waveform Display

The waveform display shows the last two seconds of audio across the top of the grid or the mixer, with the newest audio on the right.

Press SHIFT+START/END to show the waveform of the output (OUT). START/END lights up while you hold SHIFT.
Press SHIFT+START/END again to show the selected track's waveform. The track's pad and name appear on the tab. Turn VALUE to select another track; the display follows it.
Press SHIFT+START/END a third time to hide the waveform display.

With the pattern playing, SHIFT + START/END shows the output's waveform over the grid; a second press shows the selected track, B3 FM; a third press hides it.

Layout: the grid moves down under the waveform display, and the mixer's strips get shorter. The display stays open when you switch between the grid and the mixer.

Signal: OUT is the mix before the effects. A track shows its pad's audio at the track's level, before pan and the effects; a muted track shows a flat line. When you select another track, its waveform starts again from the right.

Effects

The FX buttons work as on the stock SP-404MKII, except that the effect's page stays open until you close it.

Press an FX button to turn the effect on and open its page.
Turn CTRL 1 to CTRL 3 to set its parameters. Hold VALUE to show the second page of parameters.
Press EXIT to close the page. The effect stays on, and the settings on both pages are kept.
Press the FX button again to turn the effect off.

With the pattern playing, the first FX button turns Filter+Drive on and opens its page with CUTOFF, RESONANCE and DRIVE; with VALUE held, the second page appears; EXIT closes the page while the effect stays on.

Reopen a page: hold REMAIN and press FILTER+DRIVE to DJFX LOOPER to open the page of an effect that is on, without turning it off. This works for the effects on the bus that BUS FX has selected.

Bus effects: SHIFT+pad 16 opens the SP-404MKII's bus effects settings. Press EXIT to return to DOOM OS; the pattern keeps playing. While REC is on, the screen shows NOT POSSIBLE.

Record effect movements: with an effect's page open, press REC twice and turn the knobs. The movements are recorded into the pattern (see FX Automation).

Side Chain

The side chain turns one bus down while another bus plays, for example the bass while the kick hits. The SIDECHAIN screen shows the SP-404MKII's side chain on a picture of the buses: D (DRY) and BUS 1 to BUS 4 into the output, routed as the SP-404MKII routes them.

Press RECORD SETTING, turn VALUE to SIDECHAIN and press VALUE. The SIDECHAIN screen opens.
Turn VALUE to the bus that controls the side chain, the source, and press VALUE.
Turn VALUE to the bus that is turned down, the target, and press VALUE. Press VALUE twice on the same bus to compress that bus.
Turn CTRL 1, CTRL 2 and CTRL 3 to set the side chain. While you turn, the screen shows how far the target is turned down.
Press EXIT to return to the grid. The settings are saved.

SIDECHAIN opened from the TRACK page shows D and BUS 1 to BUS 4 as the SP-404MKII routes them, the side chain OFF; VALUE pressed on BUS 1 asks PICK TARGET; pressed on BUS 2 it sets BUS1 > BUS2; with the pattern playing, SHIFT + RECORD SETTING shows how far BUS 2 is turned down; EXIT returns to the grid.

`CTRL 1`	THR, THRESHOLDhow loud the source must be before the target is turned down
`CTRL 2`	RAT, RATIOhow far the target is turned down; the highest values silence it
`CTRL 3`	REL, RELEASEhow fast the target comes back

GAIN: turn VALUE to GAIN and press VALUE, then turn VALUE to raise the target's level after the side chain, 0.0 to 6.0 dB. Press VALUE again to finish. THR, RAT and REL can be edited the same way.

Turn the side chain off: hold DEL and press VALUE on the source or the target bus.

Over time: press SHIFT+RECORD SETTING to show how far the target is turned down over the last moments; press it again for the picture of the buses.

The SP-404MKII's own setting: the SIDECHAIN screen sets the same side chain as the SIDE CHAIN tab of the bus effects settings (SHIFT+pad 16). It applies to every project.

FX Automation

FX Automation shows the effect movements recorded in the pattern for the bus that BUS FX has selected: a row for each FX button and a column for each of its parameters.

Press SHIFT+MARK to open FX Automation.
Turn VALUE to select a parameter. Hold SHIFT and turn VALUE to select the next or previous effect.
Press VALUE to show the parameter's value on each step of the bar.
Tap a pad to select a step, and turn VALUE to change its value.
Press VALUE to return to the overview. Press SHIFT+MARK to return to the grid.

SHIFT + MARK opens the overview; VALUE shows the isolator's LOW parameter on each step of the bar; a pad selects a step; VALUE returns to the overview; SHIFT + a turn selects the next effect; SHIFT + MARK returns to the grid.

EFX MOTION PLAY: press START/END to turn the SP-404MKII's EFX MOTION PLAY on or off; the recorded movements play only while it is on, and START/END lights. An edit turns it on. Turning it off also turns off the effects of both buses.

On a step: in the one-parameter view, the row's own FX button turns the effect on or off at the selected step.

Delete an effect: hold DEL and press an FX button to delete everything of that effect on this bus: its movements and every time the pattern switches it on or off. DEL+MARK deletes every effect movement of the pattern, on both buses, as on the SP-404MKII's own pattern edit screen. The notes and pad mutes stay. While you hold DEL, the FX buttons and MARK light up.

Help Mode

Help mode shows what each control does on the current DOOM OS screen.

Hold SHIFT alone for three seconds to turn help mode on.
Press any button or pad, or turn VALUE or a CTRL knob, to see its functions. Nothing plays or changes. A control without a function on the current screen shows NO FUNCTION.
Press EXIT, or hold SHIFT for three seconds again, to leave help mode.

SHIFT held for three seconds opens help mode: press any button or pad, or turn VALUE or CTRL 1 to 3, to see what it does on this screen; nothing changes.

DOOM OS Settings

The DOOM OS tab of the SP-404MKII's SYSTEM screen holds the settings of DOOM OS.

Press EXIT to leave DOOM OS.
Press SHIFT+pad 13 and select SYSTEM.
Turn CTRL 3 to select the DOOM OS tab.
Select a setting and change its value, as on the SP-404MKII's own tabs.
Press EXIT to leave the page. The settings are saved.

Motion Rec	How a recorded effect knob is written (see FX Automation): OVERWRITE replaces the movements already there, OVERDUB adds to themdefault OVERWRITE
Hold to Exit	How long you hold `EXIT` to leave DOOM OS, from 0.1 to 1.0 seconds. DOOM OS closes as soon as you have held `EXIT` that long; a short press does not close it. OFF: a press of `EXIT` closes DOOM OSdefault OFF
Boot to DOOM	YES: DOOM OS opens by itself when the SP-404MKII has starteddefault NO

Changed in DOOM OS: the grid view and its lines (SHIFT+RECORD SETTING on the grid), the mixer's display style (SHIFT+RECORD SETTING in the mixer) and Pattern Follow (SHIFT+HOLD) are also set in DOOM OS. These settings keep the last choice.

Custom shortcuts: the SHORTCUT tab, next to DOOM OS, holds up to eight shortcuts of your own.
