S2400 DSP Card

S2400 Expansion

DSP Card

Unlock a new dimension of sound. Real-time effects processing for the S2400.

Overview

Effects processor.
Digital mixer.
Instrument host.

The S2400 DSP Card expands your sampler into a powerful effects processor, digital mixer, and virtual instrument host. Built around a quad-core 64-bit ARM processor running a custom Linux OS for real-time audio, it brings advanced routing, plugin processing, live performance FX, and instrument playback directly into the S2400 — all in a user-installable upgrade with no soldering required.*

*Some technical skill required. If in doubt, consult a qualified service professional.

MIX

Digital Mixer

A full mixer inside your sampler.

The DSP Card takes over the S2400's internal audio engine and turns it into a flexible digital mixing environment. Route sounds through group buses, shape them with insert effects, and use aux sends for shared processing like delay and reverb. External inputs can be processed too, so guitars, keyboards, and other sources can run through the S2400's mixer and effects in real time — all inside the hardware, with no computer required.

8 mono or 4 stereo group buses
2 configurable aux sends for shared FX
Master mix bus with insert processing
External inputs can be routed through plugin FX
Up to 4 insert plugins per bus

Live Performance FX

Live Performance FX
Powered by Sinevibes

A dedicated live performance effects suite built exclusively for the S2400 DSP Card by Sinevibes. Twenty algorithms can be loaded across eight pad-triggerable slots, letting you fire effects in real time for transitions, drops, builds, and performance manipulation.

Plugin Support

LV2 & VST3.
On your sampler.

Load third-party effects and instruments directly onto the DSP Card. Reverbs, delays, compressors, modulation effects, and more can run natively on the card's quad-core ARM processor using LV2 and VST3 plugin formats.

Insert plugins anywhere in the mixer path, build chains, and use aux routing for shared effects just like you would in a DAW — but running standalone inside the S2400. Support for ARM Linux audio plugins continues to grow, and the Isla Content Library makes it easy to discover compatible tools and expansions.

Virtual Instruments

Play instruments.
Not just samples.

The DSP Card turns your S2400 into a virtual instrument host. Play multi-sampled instruments and SoundFont banks from the S2400's MIDI tracks or an external MIDI controller. Pianos, strings, brass, synths, and more can be played directly alongside your sampled material.

With the SF2LV2 SoundFont Plugin Creator, you can convert .sf2 files into playable LV2 instrument plugins right in your browser. Preview patches, build custom instruments, and load them onto the DSP Card in minutes.

Learning curve

So I like the concept of a card and how it works. It’s a bit of a learning curve. I’m still trying to figure it out, possibly for one. I bought the machine, the machine itself is pretty self-explanatory, but with the addition of the DSP card, it’s a little bit more confusing, primarily when trying to use the plug-ins that are instruments, the instrument plug-ins. That’s the…

fx sound great, soundfonts implementation has great potential

the flexibility to stack, use multiple instance and reorder at will a collection of great sounding fx is superb. The soundfonts sound great as well, but currently have little useful controls. The VCA envelope doesn't always work on the supplied and recommended soundfonts, and don't seem to work for any of the soundfonts I converted with Isla's webbased converter; even after…
