the sp404mkii v3.0 update brings many new features, but to me, none more important than the ability to finally export multitracks/stems as audio files from pattern mode. this means that, for each pattern, you can export perfectly cut loops of all your single instruments: kick, snare hats, basss etc.
you then have the ability to export them into your SD card and transfer them to a DAW (digital audio workstation: Ableton, FL studio, Cubase, Pro Tools, Logic etc) to create the arangement and fine tune your mix. the tracks will be perfectly in sync and ready to go!
this is such a game changer for me - I've been asking for this feature for ever! shoutout to Elf Audio - they've had this feature in Koala Sampler for years.
speaking of which... this video has quite a long intro because I really wanted to contextualise this 3.0 update in the groovebox/sampler industry. so I talk about how elektron and roland are trying to one-up each other and we're kinda benefitting from it, honestly. I find these things interesting and noteworthy, but you might not agree with me lol, so here's timestamps for you:
