How, if it's possible, do I pan samples in the 404? Do i have to just sample them in panned left or right or is it possible to do it inside the machine?
drumfresh said:thats too bad, also got another question. Is it possible to play more then one pattern sequence at the same time, for example, could i have my drum pattern on one pad and have bass, string, horns, etc.. on another pad so that im able to bring specific parts in and out as i want?

Having said that - why not rise to the challange....The 404 works at 44khz so you can use it to make tracks so long as you own a computer (which I assume you do) and a sequencer. It doesn't need to be pro tools either - you can get great results with a free sequencer like Cmusic (from computer music magazine). Make your loops with the 404, record them and sequence on the computer. Burn CDs of your finished tracks and when you play out mix some of the original loops off the 404 back in with the burnt CD copies - instant remix action.
Yes I know that's all a lot of work.......but it's still not as bad as it was ten years ago so take heart and keep at it!
