Gear Lust Part 7

there’s not much point going with a “hardware” sampler to use as not much more than a playback toy. You’d be better off just using Kontakt or Falcon, etc. But it does look like they changed transfers then:

AudioPocket iOS app lets you capture samples anywhere

Korg bills the Volca Sample 2 as a sample sequencer, but if you have an iOS device handy, then you can easily turn it into a full fledged sampler via the AudioPocket iOS app. With AudioPocket, you can load samples from your computer via iTunes or record new samples directly to your iOS device, where you can prep them and upload them to your Volca Sample 2 (check out the video on this page). And because the Volca Sample 2 is equipped with a USB port, you can also transfer samples and manage your library directly from your desktop or laptop computer.

sounds fun

The ‘high end’ cable game is messed up!! But those acoustic dots tho :laughing:
Maybe it does something, but confirmation bias is probably all.

Really want to try one of those. I’ve tried to emulate that kind of character using bit reducers on all the individual operators and envelopes in reaktor, not sure how close it gets.

yeah, it has a ton of character: aliasing, lots of noise, and its pretty easy to distort the operators and the output as well
