Reply to 2 sample decks VS 4 track decks
2 sample decks VS 4 track decks Hey everyone, I've been reading around the S4 community
and haven't found a discussion on this particular topic, so thought I'd post it up. When I first got into the S4 software I immediately started dropping loops and loading 'em up into sample decks like a kid tearing open his christmas presents. However, now that I am using it more and more, I am starting to believe that 4 track decks might be a little more effective at what I'm doing. Typically, I do backyard parties and house parties so my set lists are always spontaneous and vary depending on the people there. I feel like sample decks would be much more effective when the set list is pre-determined and rehearsed, so that you can have exactly which loops you want to throw down cued up and ready to go. I am also experimenting with 3 track decks and 1 sample deck, using the sample deck for one shots and DJ drop names etc. (backyard parties love that reggaeton horn sample!) My question and topic of discussion is this: Which configuration (4 track decks or 2 track/2 sample decks) do you prefer and what are you doing with each configuration? Side note: Anyone else wish the Sample buttons would retrigger rather than mute/unmute? | |
