Praga Kahn and Oliver Adams weren't really known for using stock samples. They tended to sample from records, so I'd bet that sample is from a different source. How they went from Acid to New Beat to Schizo to that silly s**t is beyond me. When they played it in dance clubs in Houston, people would vacate the dance floor faster than you can say "Test your might".
I am no longer in pursuit of vintage synths. The generally absurd inflation from demand versus practical use and maintenance costs is no longer viable. The internet has suffocated and vanquished yet another wonderful hobby. Too bad.

Lords of ACID! Channel X! good times, good times. Juno Reactor with Traci Lords on that one too.

You can get the hits/stabs from most romplers. Also layer your own using strings, brass. Ones I used to make had a tympani pitched up for the attack. Most sample CDs from the era had rave stabs like that one. Along with HOOVER sounds, woot!
