    This is dope! I love sampling from film, especially for foley outdoor elements. The scene from "Ex Machina" when the helicopter leaves the protaganist all alone in the forest caught my ear. The sounds become so loud in a haunting way that really heightens the feeling of complete loneliness and uncertainty.
    Respect.

      You have all that you need.
      Midi contoler keyboard.
      Just a mixer, some effects, filters, compressors, things to work the sound signal...
      A recording machine, numerical or analological.
      That's all.
      Akaï S series are so good to collect some synthetisors sounds, and MPC 's, 1k,2k,3k, even 60, so good to sequence.

    ✌️I really enjoyed it. The waters of Jp Enka genre are very deep with a lot of potential and you treated this piece with the respect you always have. What you call the discharge of frustration is pure🔥 in my opinion it is due to the motif of the sample which is supposed to be dark, mysterious and evoke an atmosphere of fear and anticipation of unknown events. Hope your cold is better. Take care and keep cookin 🫡

      Thank you for appreciating the process. I need to remember that the samples will tell you how they want to be arranged, and in this case, those particular sounds naturally formed into a loud, in your face aggressive groove. You're right...maybe sometimes it's okay to go that way...

      @eddieleonard6925  Месяц назад +1

    • @immobilarity1
      @immobilarity1 Месяц назад

      ​@@eddieleonard6925 the eps classic is 13 bit mono, super grimy soundwise, only thing with the classic is it has no effects, it has several sample rate choices, 6.25khz being the lowest, the lower the sample rate, the more sample time you have but the quality of the sound degrades which gives it that grit, now with the 16 plus is 16 bit, but 16 bit mono, not stereo, the 16 plus has 13 effects whereas the asr 10 has close to 50, fun fact, back in the fall of 1990, the ensoniq eps 16 plus was released, the original plan of the eps 16 plus was to have stereo sampling, HD floppy drive, pretty much what the asr 10 is now, but it would've been way too expensive probably would've been $4,000 retail price, so they had to make it the way it was, the 16 plus was $2,500 retail price when it 1st debuted in 1990, maybe more depending where you lived at, they didnt have the technology to make the eps 16 plus do what the asr 10 do, 2 years later, the asr 10 was born, what people complained about the eps 16 plus, they fixed on the asr 10, the asr 10 offered stereo sampling, hd floppy drive, you can sample while you're playing a beat, etc, but i still prefer the eps 16 plus over the asr 10 anyone that used ensoniq samplers can chime in, also to let you guys know, the ensoniq samplers are that, samplers, full fledged samplers at that, the mpc's, sp 1200's are drum machines that have sampling features, big difference, which is why their sequencers tend to be better, the only mpc that is full fledged is the mpc 4000, but the ensoniq samplers have a dope sequencer, now to answer your original question, the eps' can be a bit buggy, but thats usually due to people having the keyboard's laying on a flat surface such as a table, the eps classic and 16 plus' heat sync arent the best and while with the eps 16 plus they had a intercooler that was sold separately, they're very hard to come by and rare, so with those heat sync, if you lay them on hard surfaces, they'll overheat and would freeze which would be one of the bugs that you mention, getting a keyboard would greatly reduce the machine to freeze, it hasnt happened to me, but another bug is when you press too fast, that can cause it to freeze, but that doesnt happen very often, now which one to get, for you, i would say the eps 16 plus, especially with your sound, it has effects and when it comes to versatility, i feel the eps 16 plus wins more, the asr 10 although great, i feel like its more limited, the asr 10 has stereo sampling and its more advanced than the 1st 2 platforms, i feel like when it comes to synthesis, i feel like the eps 16 plus and the asr 10 reign supreme in that department, hopefully this helps you with your decision
