MidiIn aminet

A MIDI triggered 16-bit sample player (14-bit output via paula). Played with it a tad last night and it's very good. Fully assignable, no sample size limit (depending on your memory), up to 32-note polyphony (16 channels at 48kHz seems fine on my 040), supports velocity, pan, pitchbend, aftertouch etc.

I'm amazed I never knew this software existed until last night :lol:

Hooooooo, that is good! I might even use it at a gig... did I really need to buy an Edirol FA-101 after all? ;-)

Show off :-P

I mean I was amazed there was any kind of midi triggered sampling software (especially 16-bit capable) running on a basic amiga that I didn't know about :-)

The authors of the software did actually use it in gigs, apparently. So nerr!


The thing is, I can spend ages modifying filters, LoFi etc for samples to grunge them up on real hardware or use Paula. The latter just has pure class to it.

I'm not sure if I want to Gig with Amigas again... but certainly will find use in the studio, I love the sound of Paula with her nonlinear DACs and weird frequency table.

-Edit- :banana: Edirol FA-101 :hammer:

Oh aye? Nasty past experience?

Oh no, nothing major! I had a sequencer crash once... maybe twice (but that happens to any sequencer). No, I just don't want to subject my Amiga's to the harsh stage environment, it was ok 7 years ago, but they are old now. Also I've been scaling back as much hardware as possible... I now only need my Laptop and my Edirol FA-101, the Laptop runs all my soft synths which I can midi up to the 4 stage keyboards we use and it can also do some sequencing.

But if you lot promise to come to a gig, I might be convinced to use an Amiga on stage again :-)

How often do you play and where?

Around London, and we don't plan to gig for the next few months, as we are working on some new material :-)

What sort(s) of stuff do you do? Any demo material online?

Actually, for you I think I can arrange something :-)

Check your PM
