    Thank you for actually going through the features & the front panel. I'm a huge early 90's hip hop fan and always wondered how they did the sound & production. A lot of people here post vids of making beats on it but don't show what the buttons do. The explanation of multi pitch & level was great, I always wanted to know so that I could recreate it. I can't afford an SP but have the MPC software on my computer and wanted to see how the SP workflow compares. I think some of this can be recreated even on the Roland MC-707. Lo-fi, analog tape effects, compressors, etc can also be used. Now we have a lot more sampling time on modern machines but that early hip hop, house, and D&B sounds are unbeatable classics. This was a very helpful video.

I plan to feature my 1985 Casio SK-1, which is an 8 bit "sampler" with 0.5 seconds of memory I think, presets, and a distorted sound. It was sold at Radio Shack back then. I've had mine for almost 20 years, and made a ton of actual music with it. Your comment reminded me of this. See you around here soon! Thank you

I've been working on reverse engineering the sp1200 workflow for a diy project written with puredata. I have a few videos on my channel so take a look if you like. I haven't gotten throught the video yet but im hoping you go through all of the setup, disk and sync menu options. Great content thx for the overview of the sp1200.

    I actually just realized that a few days ago! It would usually go for $3000 in 2018 when I got mine. One thing is that they often don't actually *sell* for the high prices, so make sure to toggle "sold" on when you look on eBay and are curious about the prices (and how much to offer a seller). I have thoughts about this, and should make a video... Thank you for the idea!

    I understand the initial thought. I should give some context for my specific SP. the original SP-1200 was in the 80s and mine - even though you see the black case - is in fact from the 80s. It’s not a regular reissue. Many parts are SP-12 parts, and it comes straight from… E-MU. It’s a prototype. My friend worked there in the 80s and 90s, and it was an SP he took with him when the company closed down. It was on the engineering bench over the years, and used to design new parts, such as the new power supply which later was used for the reissue. Hope this is useful. Take care and thanks for being here
