Serious question, cant you achieve this with either flam or 8th vs 16th note swing? Im not saying this is a bad idea, just doesnt sound that different than the above to me.
What’s cool about the Volca is hearing the progressive changes, possible because you can really fine adjust negative swing on the fly with a single knob. I don’t think it would have the same feel if I had to go into the swing menu, or a track settings menu, and adjust swing on the fly there.
What makes it useful on the Volca anyway is once you have a pattern swinging however you can easily mute and solo while re-adjusting swing - which to me makes it more of a performance feature …fwiw also think they needed as many performance eggs in there as possible to spice up one bar loops lol
It’s one of those features that I really missed when I moved from an MPC 2000xl to the 1000. I shake my head every time I try to roll that dial to the left.
Yeah I dunno the more I think about it, I don’t think I’d use it on the S2400 - probably cuz I have the Volca Sample for if I want that effect on a hat pattern or something - but honestly don’t think negative swing is all that useful aside from a performance feature IMO
