[@hearmenow909]

The price point has helped it become so popular. It's an awesome plugin at a price that's a no brainer.

[@LowHeatBeats]

Good point!

[@64bitmodels66]

Kind of like how the price point helped the original amiga become popular

[@stekker1]

glad u like it 💕 nice beat too

[@LowHeatBeats]

Thanks! Totally enjoyed working with it, great work!

[@natureseyemusic]

It really is a top piece of gear. It works really well in creating ambient pads. I love the crunch!!!

[@hrvstmusic]

Such a sick plugin @stekker1

[@fernandomiranda9736]

I just purchased what a awesome plugin, PLEASE make an 8 Part Drum / Sample Version Ill Gladly pay again!

[@Bittamin]

Amigo gang! 😊❤🎉

[@ASH-ou4cg]

Nice man! Came across this video by accident and am glad I watched it. Very well done and love the beat! Keep up the great work!

[@LowHeatBeats]

Thank you, I appreciate it! Glad you found me.

[@wolfunplugged]

"you can run this on a potato"....😅😅...gorgeous man, gorgeous! I have to buy it...+ your sample pack🎶🎶

[@LowHeatBeats]

lol Thanks man, I appreciate it!

[@Deezeone]

It worth it and fair priced… perfect combo

[@Bittamin]

As a music production video consumer, I have to say you look like a love child between Weaver Beats and Benn Jordan. That is all 🎉

[@LowHeatBeats]

lmao I watch both of them, so I’ll take it as a compliment

[@IJOSoundVideo]

Such a cool tune !

[@LowHeatBeats]

Thanks!

[@BoopPOPO]

The sound is when you take a lower sample rate, apply no interpolation and pitch up and down. Renoise redux can achieve this nicely too

[@LowHeatBeats]

Didn't know Renoise made plugins you could use in other DAWs, thanks for the tip. Looks like a great sampler for sure.

[@friele80]

adding a filter before the sound engine in the program does the downsampling or what it should be called is useful. it would be cool to have a low/hi pass filter in the prog. bouht Amigo 2 days ago, i've been chasing the amiga sound for quite some years. it actually sounds extremely similar

[@friele80]

and yes, i know it can be achieved by applying the effect on the sample before putting it into the amigo sampler :)

[@LowHeatBeats]

Yeah, a filter would be nice, I agree.

[@happniin5287]

bought this when it came out and it still isn't showing up in Ableton for me lol.. got a Macbook air m1 which is supposed to be supported. Still haven't heard back from support :(

[@LowHeatBeats]

I use an M1 Mac too and it works fine. Do you have the VST3 folder enabled in Preferences? I'm not sure if it works as VST2.

[@bookx249]

i have the same issue with maschine and FL it just doesn't recognize the plugin...its so frustrating

[@vidarhjal]

Will you make a full version of the track?

[@LowHeatBeats]

Hey, I appreciate you asking! I will probably finalize the arrangement but it's not going to be a long one. May included it in a beat tape at some point.

[@vidarhjal]

@@LowHeatBeats cool, alright

[@geebee44]

At that price one should only say yes I will...

[@kur1su74]

If it had a slice to midi option it would be 100% perfect for me.

[@LowHeatBeats]

Sure, but I feel a quirky plugin like this is always going to lack certain features. Tbh I didn't even expect it to have sample slicing at all.

[@MarsHottentot]

I got it immediately - how could I resist?

[@gazell3s]

How does it compare to Ableton Sampler (downsampling aside)?

[@LowHeatBeats]

Sampler is so powerful and feature-rich that there's no comparison between the two. Comparing it with Simpler would be a bit more fair. But even then, Simpler is the complete package for quick sample manipulation and has everything you need, while Amigo is just a quirky little lo-fi thing and is much more limited in its capabilities.

[@XHALE303]

3rd cool vid, subbed , u got soul.😊👍

[@LowHeatBeats]

Thank you for the sub and welcome!

[@markmallory2528]

Man! That track 🔥🔥🔥

[@LowHeatBeats]

Appreciate you Mark!

[@TheBroDotTV]

Nice beat dude.

[@LowHeatBeats]

Thanks dude!

[@vidarhjal]

7:28 nice hint!

[@LowHeatBeats]

Glad you got something useful out of the video 🙌

[@tajih9683]

Always KILLER!!! DOPE!!!

[@LowHeatBeats]

Thank you fam 🫡

[@StephaneGman]

My ableton keeps saying file not found when i put in most wavs etc in it :(

[@SkeR55]

Do you think i could use it in boom bap beats aswell?

[@LowHeatBeats]

Of course, it should work great for some dirty boom bap beats. But yeah, it's a sampler, you can use it for any genre.

[@SkeR55]

@@LowHeatBeats great! Thanks!

[@CezarCazan_evx]

Awesome beat though! 🔥🔥🔥

[@LowHeatBeats]

Appreciate you watching

[@Myexpectationsarerealistic]

I am pretty certain they used Ami Sampler’s source in this.

[@LowHeatBeats]

I didin’t know about Ami sampler, so thanks for the tip! It seems Ami sampler was released after Amigo though.

[@Darkest_matter]

the track was nice

[@LowHeatBeats]

I appreciate that

[@inperfectsequence7840]

Amigo is sample player, is not audio capture functions. I'm sorry, but I can't pay for something that I have for free in its original version. And yes, now we have the original tracker available with the integrated sampler, external audio capturer with 4-track sequencer like Protacker or Fastracker II (from 8 bit to 24 bit) Amigo VST will be good for being a sample player and some modern utilities with bit recution and chord memory. But it does not sample directly, at least in the video nothing of that is shown, because a sample is not the same when it is captured at 8 bits from a vinyl and at 24 bits from a vinyl. Nor is it the same to reduce a perfect 24-bit sample to 8, all it does is destroy the frequency signal, but it does not capture audio and there is a big difference in that. Thanks for the information in the video.

[@LowHeatBeats]

Fair enough. I still think it's cool because most people don't have an actual Amiga, nor do they want to deal with a tracker (I know I don't). As for sampling directly into it, I don't think many plugins provide this option anyway and routing audio onto a MIDI track may not be super straight forward or possible in all DAWs. So yeah, it's a sample player like most plugins and that's fine.

[@inperfectsequence7840]

@@LowHeatBeats It's cool but only for a while. A Tracker is much cooler, because it is a sampler with a sequencer and audio capture, a sampler! free! sampling at 8, 12, 14 bits there is no justification for those 13 euros IMO.

[@leftmono1016]

@@inperfectsequence7840- trackers are only cooler if you like programming trackers. Personally I never liked them, tried them back in the day and also more recently with LSDJ.

[@JimmyHandtrixx]

what 'original tracker' are you talking about?

[@inperfectsequence7840]

@@JimmyHandtrixx The Ultimate Soundtracker, or just "Soundtracker" for short, is a music editing program originally developed for the Amiga. The pioneering software of its time was created by the German Karsten Obarski. Soundtracker debuted on EAS in mid-1987, but was not a commercial success. It was created by Karsten Obarski in 1987, to compose music for EA video games. Reviews and critics of the program found it "complicated", "illogical", "whimsical" compared to music editing software that was in the spotlight at the time, such as Sonix by Aegis or Deluxe Music by EA. After the software version 1.21 code was decompiled in 1988, everyone had some so-called tracker. It was funny, because even in Amigaformat magazines we can find those false "freeware", where many pirated versions were already a standard for the beatmakers of the time, and you had to pay for the magazine that contained diskettes or CDs with freeware ( pirate). This was not illegal, because the laws were not yet regulated to prohibit these situations. The pirated versions of the late 80s and 90s were simply versions of something that Mr. Karsten Obarski had already invented and that could not be penalized, due to the lack of laws for it. The AMIGO Gui is simply a skin cloned from Protracker II, PT2 is a ¨CheckSum/Equinox¨ version where the name of the program appears with Graffiti fonts, and that AMIGO alludes to that year of 1991, where everything was happening. AMIGO It is not a tracker, it is just an editor that plays samples and processes and it is the Plugin version of SampleEdit section that we will find in Protracker II, with the difference that it cannot record external sound from your card, this can be done from the invented software by Karlsen Obarski. Maybe in future versions they will offer that in AMIGO (who knows). Sample Edit is the part where you could digitize the sound from the ProTracker II and edit those sounds without using anything else. It was an audio editing tool, digitizer or audio capturer and musical composition. The software did not have VSTs or strange algorithms, all the effects were created with hexadecimal calculation tricks from the sequencer. The .MOD format was the file where all the sounds were saved and there were many players to play them as songs. This software was widely used to create video game music, but also for things like Techno, Dance, House, Rap, Dwon tempo, Jungle, drum and bass, reggae, dancehall, Pop, Disco, Funk... Also things like Octamed were used to sequence 6 tracks of a Sampler like Akai S950 (this was a sampler without a sequencer for 6 independent parts). 😅👍

[@pineapple_on_cheeseburger]

hmm. . . only mono output stopped my hand to buy it

[@LowHeatBeats]

Fair enough, I wish it was stereo too. But I suppose they were going for the true Amiga sound and to achieve that it had to be mono (just my guess).

[@bytesabre]

@@LowHeatBeatsFor the Amiga itself, it did have stereo but was 2 mono sampler channels hard panned left, and 2 hard panned right, and people usually mix those in post to be less harsh in headphones. This sampler is faithful to that, but best to use more than one instance and do the same thing

[@raihanshrk1955]

amiga sorry what?? Nvm.

[@awlam23]

its so cheap that i download it for free from a torrent tracker

[@LowHeatBeats]

Well, good for you I guess 🤷‍♂

[@pd177]

Cheap? I sent them £10 they sent me a dud zip and PDF. £10 for nothing ain't cheap. Oh yeah - they don't answer emails - so as far as I'm concerned the whole thing's a scam

[@CoolDudeClem]

The only price I like is FREE. I have PLENTY of other ways to emulate Amiga sound.

[@LowHeatBeats]

Fair enough, I didn't have anything else with that exact sound, so for me it was worth it but I can see how that may not be the case for you.
