Hardware samplers

[Ibi Sum]

No, I’m going to say Synthstrom Deluge or 1010music Blackbox, both of which are very, very cool instruments worth the effort. As samplers go, both are superlative.

In fact I think I’ll get rid of everything and just focus on the Deluge.  Just kidding, almost really though…
