Roland SP606 Sampling Workstation - GROOVEBOX

(This text is machine translated) SP-606 is a new concept product born from the alliance between Roland and Cakewalk and which combines in a single package the reliability of the hardware with the potential of a dedicated software. It is in fact a hybrid product consisting of a stand alone sampler which, through a USB port, can be controlled and interacted directly with a specific PC software. The hardware sampler offers 4 x 4 velocity pads, D-Beam and V-LINK control, Compactflash memory support and of course USB port for PC connection. The new P606 software is mainly a Phrase Generator / Virtual Groovebox that allows the composition of grooves through a loop based sequencer and software synthesizer functionality. The grooves thus created can be sent to the SP-606 via the USB port for subsequent use independent of the PC.
