Roland SP-404MK2 — Effects Controller
A dedicated multi-format controller for managing, shaping, and automating every effect parameter on your SP-404MK2 — in real time, from any DAW or standalone.
What it does
All five effect processors — Bus 1–4 and Input FX — mapped to a clean, resizable interface with instant hardware feedback.
Every knob responds to incoming MIDI CC messages. Draw automation in your DAW or drive it from a hardware controller — your workflow, your choice.
One button pushes the current UI state directly to your SP-404MK2 over USB — no menu diving, no manual matching.
Simple online license activation on first launch. After that the license is stored locally — no internet required for studio sessions.
