Re: List of demos of vintage samplers
A quick test recording of my 1984 Emulator II via an old Roland SRV-330 reverb after a few months in storage:
Welcome back EII - Still sounds as warm and sweet as ever!

A vid of the very rare Dynacord ADS-K (keyboard version of the ADS sampler) was uploaded just a few days ago.

Re: Links to vintage sampler demos.
Yes, agreed. Thanks they really are great. The Ensoniq's are very powerful for sound design.
Re: Links to vintage sampler demos.
Thanks guys.
I agree, the Ensoniqs are very powerful when it comes to synthesis. It's the most fun hardware sampler I have worked with so far.
It seems it misses some major functions but if you look deeper it's all there. Osc Sync sound, Filters with Resonance, Evolving motion sounds using just 256 samples single cycle waveforms.
I used to think that 'the larger the sample, the better'.... well, it all depends what you're looking for.

Re: Links to vintage sampler demos.
Hello all,
I made a demo of the Ensoniq Mirage with the, for some people mysterious, Soundprocess OS loaded. I am playing 4 sounds, not simultaneous, that I made. On all sounds I am using single cycle waveforms, 256samples each, from the (Arturia) Prophet-VS and Roland D-10 and 1 sound has a larger, 4096 samples, wavesample of a Mellotron Choir from the Roland Vintage Synth Expansion Board.
It's not a tutorial, just a demo of sounds. I will post another video with a tutorial on the Soundprocess OS later.
This OS can still be ordered online by the way.
Enjoy,
Robin

Re: Links to vintage sampler demos.
Hi there! I don't know what your real name is! But I really like the thread you have shared. It includes and contains everything I looked for!
Re: Links to vintage sampler demos.
Not sure if this thread is still alive (!) but my latest demo of Emulator II custom banks here:
