Hi Romeo!

Very strange we never spoke back in the good old days! Anyways, I myself uses EXS24 from Emagic on my mac. But I think MachFive from MOTU is a good sampler. Checkout http://www.kvraudio.com if you haven't already. My fav site for news and reviews.

The MachFive has many nice features.

It can import soundbanks in the following formats: Akai S1000/S3000, S5000/S6000 and MPC2000/MPC3000; Kurzweil K2xxx; Roland S7xx; E-mu III/ESI/IV/EOS; Tascam GigaSampler/GigaStudio; Emagic EXS-24; Digidesign SampleCell; Creamware Pulsar STS; and Native Instruments Kontakt. Supported sample formats include Kurzweil K2xxx, Akai MPC. Snd, Creamware Pulsar.S, WAVE/ACID, .AIFF, SDII and .REX. MachFive automatically maps a .REX file's audio slices to consecutive keys for independent triggering.

Check it out :lol:

Well, I didn't participate in too many events in those days. I was happy hanging around at home or with some few Red Sector members and composing my little mods. I've been to the Spreadpoint '93 AFAIR in Denmark for example.

I dont know what my problem is, but I cant wrap my head around software samplers.

I have a Roland W30 Workstation Sampling keyboard which I can do amazing stuff with, like Mapping Multiple Samples to individual keys on the keyboard and even MultiSamples per key.

But when It comes to software samples I just dont get them.
