The TORAIZ SP-16 sampler and step sequencer is the first in Pioneer's line-up of music production tools for DJs and producers. In partnership with the legendary synth creator, Dave Smith's Prophet-6 analogue filters have been added so you can give your creations a rich, analogue warmth and presence.

Use the TORAIZ SP-16's simple layout and large touch screen for producing, or use it as a standalone unit in the DJ booth to enhance performances. Just load samples, create patterns, add FX, loops, and manipulate their parameters to make your music your own.

Features:

FULL-COLOUR TOUCH SCREEN
The 7-inch, full-colour touch display gives you instant access to all the info you need. Browse, select and colour-code samples intuitively, while manipulating their parameters with the rotary dials just below the screen.

STEP SEQUENCER
A 16-step sequencer lets you create up to 256 different patterns. You can save and play back your loops instantly, and use the dials to modulate the sounds. Plus the backlit buttons will reflect the colours assigned to each sound for a visual guide.

TACTILE PERFORMANCE PADS
Load up to 16 samples to the large rubber pads, then finger drum freely to layer sounds on-the-fly. The multicolour LEDs show what samples are in play, while Velocity Mode lets you control the sample volume with the amount of pressure you apply.

POWERFUL PROCESSING ENGINE
You get all the power you need to play with 16 samples simultaneously even when youre using time stretch, pitch bend or the amp envelope. And with 8GB of flash memory you have enough space to use the TORAIZ SP-16 as a stand-alone unit, with no need for a laptop.

DAVE SMITH ANALOGUE FILTERS
The TORAIZ SP-16 has the same analogue filters as Dave Smiths renowned Prophet-6 synthesiser. Use the dials to sculpt your sound manipulating Drive, Cut Off and Resonance and add true analogue warmth and presence.

Pre-installed samples
With 2GB of pre-installed samples, by courtesy of Loopmasters, you can get started right out of the box.

Beat sync
Connect compatible devices via PRO DJ LINK and the sampler will snap your one-shots and loops to the beat of the master deck1. A MIDI clock also lets you connect other devices via USB and stay in sync.

Touch strip
Use the touch strip for instinctive control of various parameters including pitch bending.

USB support
Load sound sources without hassle using a USB storage device.

I originally purchased an Akai Force and couldn't get the hang of it (although in the Force's defense I can't make myself sit down and read a manual). I picked up the SP-16 and in half an hour I had the body of a track fleshed out and ready to import into Ableton. The DSI filter is amazing and adds so much to the track as long as you don't overdo it. It can sequence outboard mono synths like the AS-1 (which I have connected to it) as well as program chords for poly synths, or run it through Ableton and control the collection of soft synths we've all got. It's an amazingly intuitive piece of kit, but isn't without its own quirks. There's no mic pre-amp for recording vocals (or sampling records), and no wifi connectivity for auto downloading your samples. Also if you plan to DJ with it alongside your CDJ's, or XDJ-1000 MK2's in my case, you're set as it supports PRO-DJ-LINK and will stay in time. However you're SOL if you want to run it with a controller and Rekordbox. I mean, you can, but you're back to manually beatmatching as this unit doesn't support Ableton Link (I had to dust off my Force as an event I was hosting needed the lighting tied into my RB-DMX1 box) Overall though, I would definitely recommend this unit to any aspiring DJ/beatmakers out there.

Best sounding sampler out there atm - super tight timing! Dsi prophet 6 filter and drive is awesome for resampling / sound design - could use some more fx algo's but it's usable as is, Love it for studio and live work

I bought it hoping it will match or come close to the MPC and this in every way surpasses it. I figured out I can hook up an iPad with the camera control kit and use Korg Gadgets and control through the USB Midi. Absolute Beast.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
