Chromatic sampling is so addictive!

[@CaseyChisholmOfficial]

I kinda always wanted one of these

[@Fuzzflx]

Trim the end point, 4 "charm" delete. I have 2 of these.

[@shardsrecordingstudio-matt2247]

this is a sneaky fun piece of gear, if you're cool with quick and dirty getting right down to creativity and not powerful editing, it's rad

[@klankenkabaal]

Right! Quick and dirty for sure

[@GemExtractor]

Are you able to turn the input volume knob up or down (if thats a thing) while recording a sample in order to make the click go away? Also, would you do a video sampling in drums and using the sequencer to make a rhythm?

[@klankenkabaal]

I have to check if that works.. thanks for the video idea, let’s see 😉

[@GemExtractor]

@@klankenkabaal Been curious about getting one myself. Clicks arent a huge deal, but if a manual fade in/out works that would be neat

[@dillipphunbar7924]

I got a yamaha djx which does something "simpler"/similar, and i don't use it often enough. If i really want to sample an instrument, i use the mpc one.

[@owenturley6214]

When you tune the samples to the keys, how are you doing that?

[@klankenkabaal]

In Sample Edit there is Pitch and that has Semitone and Tune (fine and coarse basically) to tune an individual sample

[@jmarvosa6x3]

Love my Korg MS1! Subbed for more.

[@tropicalwhiskers3922]

They need to bring it back

[@morbidmanmusic]

the tick in the cross fades can be eliminated if looped properly.

[@davidcache]

Indeed, gotta loop at a zero point crossing ✊☺️

[@DominicMGeehan]

Just recently got an OP-1 and the sample trimming has this feature where you can also adjust the loop points and it makes it so much more pleasant for sampling chromatically on the synth engine.

[@klankenkabaal]

Right, however it’s tricky to get the loop right since you have to manually adjust it and there’s no waveform display, good point though!

@@klankenkabaal if you have an ipad or sp404 to connect in front so you can sample more accurately then send that to the microsampler…. I have not used the microsampler a lot cuz I hate the dials and display. I also replaced the washing machine knobs for proper big nice knobs.

[@klankenkabaal]

Good one! Agree on the knobs, they’re quirky for sure

[@G.GordonMidi]

Pretty wild that you can get a Korg DSS-1 for way cheaper and it’ll give you control of most any parameter you might want, analog filter (digitally controlled), great sounding dual delay lines, and a whole lot more. Granted you need to have the space, but seems like a no-brainer if you do

[@klankenkabaal]

Haven’t used that one, looks nice though

[@keyhoarder]

i dont think you can get it cheaper than microsampler. Used Microsampler are now somewhere between 300-350 us dollars. and the storage its totally different - 256k in dss1 vs 180mb in microsampler. That's a huuuge difference.

[@G.GordonMidi]

@@keyhoarder You don’t have to take my word for it. Look on Reverb. The cheapest Microsampler rn is $275. There’s a DSS-1 on there for $165. That’s cheaper. I got one for $175 a few months ago that has 2MB of RAM and a Gotek drive for storage. Yes there is a huge difference between 2MB and 180MB still but a samplers value (monetary or practical) isn’t determined by amount of RAM. Look at the MPC60, SP1200, etc- these are universally accepted as two of the best samplers ever made and have hardly any sample time. I maxed out the RAM in my 60 recently at 1.5MB, so *less* than the DSS-1 but worth literally 10 times more. My point was that the DSS-1 can be had cheaper and is much more powerful. Both of which seem to be true currently 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@robertlee1176]

This is a fantastic video - thanks for sharing these tricks

[@klankenkabaal]

You’re welcome!

[@Kevin_Fungus]

Can you save a bank of samples onto it?

[@klankenkabaal]

There are 8 banks with 36 sample slots, and each bank can hold up to 160 seconds

[@mack_solo]

Plus there is a PC editor for it, so you can go to town with your sample exports and imports.
