Description

Legendary 12-bit sampler from 1988 upgraded with the GOTEK USB floppy emulator, fresh backlight and upgraded RAM for longer sample times. Famous for sounding gritty and warm with its old digital processing and analog filters. Famous today to bring a genuine Lo-fi character to your sound as you lower the sample rate from 48 kHz to 7.5 kHz (no the plugins still don’t sound like the real deal!) It played a crucial role in shaping hip-hop, electronic, and dance music in the late ’80s and ’90s. It remains a favorite among producers for its distinct character and ability to add a lo-fi, punchy edge to samples. *Audio and MIDI cables are included* Thank you for reviewing this sampler!
