Valeton VLP-400 Multi-Track Sampler with 4 Footswitches

Open box item, like new condition. Operation confirmed.

The VLP-400 footswitch offers independent control of recording and playback for both LOOP 1 and LOOP 2. Its built-in collaboration mode (SERIAL & FREE) lets you effortlessly play two loops in parallel or switch between them, making it easy to shape your performance.

SERIAL Mode : In SERIAL mode, when both LOOP 1 and LOOP 2 contain music segments, you can use the footswitch to control the seamless switching between them. This allows you to switch between two different sections of your song and control its structure with ease. If LOOP 1 is active, you can record a new track on LOOP 2, and it will automatically start recording after the playback of LOOP 1 ends. Reactivating LOOP 1 during LOOP 2 recording will pause the recording and immediately start LOOP 1.

FREE Mode : In FREE mode, LOOP 1 and LOOP 2 operate entirely independently, with no impact on each other's recording duration. It's like having two fully functional, separate loopers.

Intelligent Overdubbing with Flexibility

The VLP-400 supports intelligent doubling of overdubs, allowing you to record over the existing track multiple times. Each overdub can be controlled to be an exact multiple of the current loop duration. If the overdub duration isn't an integer multiple, the footswitch light will flash blue, indicating that recording will automatically stop once the length matches an integer multiple. For those who prefer traditional overdubbing, the "STACK" function can be accessed by long-pressing the "ASSIGNABLE" footswitch.

Enhanced Creative Control with New Knobs and Footswitches

Compared to the VLP-200, the VLP-400 introduces ASSIGN knobs and ASSIGNABLE footswitches, offering more ways to shape your sound. With just a few knob twists, you can activate 7 effects on your loops, including OCATVE, REVERSE, FREEZE, HALF, FADE, ONCE, and SOLO. When these effects are active, the footswitch lights will glow purple. Double-tapping the ASSIGNABLE footswitch allows you to stop and start both the loop and drum machine simultaneously for more dynamic control.

Advanced Drum Machine with New  High-Sampling Rate

The VLP-400 is equipped with a new 100-stereo drum machine that features 24-bit, 48 kHz high-quality sampling. Offering a variety of drum kits (rock, pop, jazz, electronic, metal, and more), this drum machine can be independently controlled using dedicated footswitches. When recording a phrase loop, the VLP-400 will automatically synchronize it with the drum machine's tempo, ensuring a perfect match. The AUTO mode lets you record a phrase and then activate the drum machine, which will automatically adjust to sync with the loop's tempo.

Expanding Your Possibilities with Versatile Interfaces

The VLP-400 is designed for compatibility with a range of external devices:

Combo Input Interface

Connect musical instruments or dynamic microphones without the need for extra adapters. The output signal adjusts automatically depending on what's connected.

CTRL Interface

For additional control, connect external footswitches. Customize each footswitch to control different functions.

MIDI Interface

Synchronize your devices via a standard 5-pin MIDI interface. When there’s no MIDI IN signal, the VLP-400 acts as the master clock and sends out the BPM to sync with other gear. When MIDI IN is active, the VLP-400 receives and forwards the MIDI signal.

99 Storage Spaces for Your Music Library

With 32-bit, 48 kHz digital audio processing, the VLP-400 can store up to 99 projects, each with up to 6 minutes of stereo recording (WAV, 32-bit Float, 48 kHz). This offers a total recording time of 12 hours. Each project stores recordings from LOOP 1 and LOOP 2, the selected drum rhythm, and BPM settings. You can also import and export audio files, making it easy to carry your music library wherever you go.

Color-Coded LOOP Indicators for Easy Workflow

The VLP-400 features multi-colored footswitch indicator lights (red, green, blue, and yellow), clearly signaling the current work process—recording, playing, overdubbing, and more. The drum machine and effect footswitches also have distinct colored indicators, making your setup visually intuitive.

Create in Silence with Headphone Monitoring

Plug in your headphones via the 3.5mm output and enjoy a silent, creative experience, perfect for late-night sessions or when you need to stay in the zone.

Seamless Integration with Computer Software

The VLP-400 supports both Windows and Mac OS through USB. Easily manage your projects, import/export audio, and update firmware with the included software.
