[ Hello or welcome back music lovers, gear heads and synth freaks ]
So
after a long
search i finally
found a great sampler.
It
is a Zoom
Sampletrak and
has seen it's
best and even
some
worse years
but it makes
up in functions
and sounds. I
had to find
obscure smart
mediacards and
it will
only accept
ones of 16mb
or smaller. So
eventually i
found some in
the UK
and got them
by mail.
I
spend a
couple of nights
making samples
and now the
card is full
ofcourse but i've
found some
more by chance.
I often look
for them but
they are
either the
wrong size or
expensive.
Seeing
the sampler is
missing all
but one of
it's original
knobs
i hope to find
some replacements
or even better
another one in a
better shape.
It has great
filters and making
samples is
easy and fun to
do. I really
had to convince
myself buying
it seeing it's
state
but i'm happy
to be the
owner now.
I
did buy
the Teenage
Engineering
PO-33
KO and
it's fun but
does not meet
my needs. It
only has 40
seconds of
sampling so i
cannot work
with it the
way i want
which is
recording vocals
and speech
from movies or
documentaries.
Nice to make
some beats on
the go and do
all kind of
weird things
to it but
because of the
size it is not
really an
instrument
but
something i
will bring
on a
plane for entertainment.

Two of my
tracks are added to the Acid
December playlist on a Swedish
website. Here is one to enjoy, i
used the Yamaha RM1x with presets
only.
Are you still there ? :-) Perhaps read on in the first or second volume or wait until the next one!
