Hi Don ! Great soundset ! Just wondering : to what extent could the pack be (or not) ported to the regular Zen Core engine ? (Asking, as my setup is a Minifreak + and Roland MV-1 groovebox :). (and an Amiga 1200 ;-) Take care ! --- Also, personal question : a guy offers to swap my Reface CP (bring-anywhere-mini-piano) with an old but revised/working Blofeld *keyboard*. Worth it ?)

@DonSolaris3 ай бұрын
Yes! The drums were originally sampled into Akai S1000 which adds a certain sweet character to the highs. It's a set called Akai Drums. It will be available sometime in the future. I sampled a bunch of drum machines into Akai S1000. The point was, it's A/D adds certain character, which I measured and documented. The set will be available in .wav format, logic ESX, Ableton and even in original(!) Akai S1000 format to use with Zulu2SCSI on hardware samplers. Point is: just loading pure samples into soft sampler misses the point, if they didn't go through actual Akai's S1000 A/D section, and all of these samples did! Took ages to do it, over 1000 samples. Stay tuned. I don't know how soon, but don't worry it will come out. This channel will let you know when. :)

@@DonSolaris wow these are great news! i don't have any akai samplers but had the dpx-1 that could read the akai S series files. It is now broken and my tech guy gave up :( I currently use the e-mu emulator ii, the e-mu esi 32 and the yamaha tx16w as hardware samplers. I use mostly hardware. My experience with synths and drum machines is by far more productive than my experience with hardware samplers. I can't get pass the bulkiness, long boot times and intimidating interfaces. i installed gotek floppy emulators in all of these units but still can't find the patience. Would you say that the Akai S1000 is friendier to use? Is the boot time shorter with SCSI?

Dear folks, to my horror I just realised I forgot to include one important reference in the vid. The point was that the Ensoniq company = ex Commodore staff. Hence why Commodore Amiga was used for the graphics.

Haha, nice, I had/loved both computers. However, while some ex-Commodore engineers left to form Ensoniq, the Amiga was designed by ex-Atari engineers, and yet other ex-Commodore engineers designed the Atari ST. Good times, awesome computers (and synths), crazy history!😁 (Oh yeah, then the DOC chip - heart of Mirage/ESQ/SQ80 - made it into Apple's IIGS. But Apple was sued by Beatles' record co. over it, so all worked out. For a while...) (And Amiga's awesome sample-based sound chip could load/play Mirage floppies with the right software!)
