I’ve always moved hardware samplers. It really depends on
what you want it for, and you’re willing to deal with the
fact they were convenient before computers mainly took over
the job, but now the workflow can be cumbersome. </div>

<div class="BodyFragment"><font size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt;">
<div class="PlainText">So I just watched a video by Espen
Kraft about his Akai S700 sampler
<br>
that he bought when Reagan was still president. Sampling
at a <br>
ridiculously low sampling rate of like 6.3 kHz, it sounded
remarkably <br>
good. Also, Paolo "SynthMania" had a video about sampling
CDs that I <br>
found enlightening.<br>
<br>
Now I've always been dismissive of samplers, associating
them with "ah <br>
yeah!" and orchestra hit samples, in the worst of 1990s
dance music, but <br>
when you think about it, they're just synths with very
flexible <br>
oscillators – provided, of course, that the rest of the
synthesis engine <br>
is up to snuff.<br>
<br>
Now Jay is going to say Yamaha A4000/A5000, and those have
the advantage <br>
of using IDE drives. But what hardware samplers would you
say are <br>
musically interesting?<br>
<br>
Hey, the 20 year anniversary is coming up, as is my
birthday, and <br>
Christmas... 🙂<br>
