Yeah Dave, Ive seen MIDI guitars. Fender makes a Strat identical to a normal one, but with only midi pups. Someday I'll have one.

Amazonian indians think (or used to think) that taking a photo of them was stealing their soul. Can you imagine how a sampler may've come across?
Devils work I say!
Me got a Roland spd11 which is a very versatile bit of kit in terms of velocity sensitivity and sample assignment. Nearly got rid once but am most glad I did'nae.

yeah, this Roland s-750 is a beast of a machine... 4 rack spaces tall, heavy as a cinder block... plus i have the CD rom drive, the hard drive that I tweaked out to hold 500 megs (original was max 160) and I have a really large library on CD plus the RGB 15" monitor for it for sampling and editing...  hold damn thing takes up an entire rack...      never use it really, lol... i took it to gigs a few times and it just isn't user friendly for live application... take several secs to load in large banks, but is premium for recording!   now days they same machine is in a 2 rackspace more powerful machine.

tis good for live stuff but tends to cut through above everything else and I never got round to putting it through comps and/or effects. great sound banks and each pad can be programmed to respond differently to the thwack one gives it and each assigned sound can be 'tuned' 2 octaves which makes for some interesting noises. But for kits it's the biz.
I got one of these an'all. A bit of a pain to use to be honest but the results and warmth outweigh that pain if one perseveres.

Scales and octaves. Weighs out the phat beats/beasts...
:)

Wow Mr Holley, that sampler is not a beast, it's a leviathan. D10's are classics; I love Roland (and he loves me)
I recently added to their profit margins by purchasing one of these. A stealer of souls if ever there was one.

(I must learn how to embed pics straight in. Mind you, where's the mystery in that)

Cheerts for the img advice fella. I will check it out within this.
Am I happy with my 'Edirol'? Oh b'jaysus yes. It's wonderful. I shan't bore you with it but it's recording quality is great. It's fairly robust and even with the built in mikes the stereo effect is noticable.
(manual-speaketh) From 64-320kbps in MP3. 16 and 24 bit wavs (samp freqs 41.1/48/88.2/96
Saves onto an SD card and with a 2GB card one gets 120mins at 44.1 (24bit) and 1993 mins of MP3 at 128kpbs...It's got a low cut and a limiter on the back, for loud stuff (aeroplanes/drummers/etc) Talks easily to the 'puter thru USB too......
Stop Jase!!...Enough!..... I'm boring myself now....Let's just say I finkin'-well lurve it. Can even make it look like something from the 'Hair-Bear-Bunch'

Whey-hey!....
