The Legendary Sampler, Pressed To Vinyl
The SP-1200 is an iconic, genre-defining, 12 bit sampler from 1987 known for its crunchy, almost vinyl-like sound and brilliant, “fairy dust” harmonics. It adds a magic texture to anything that you sample into it. We made a pack with the SP back in 2016 and have been dying to revisit it ever since. But this time, we wanted to explore how the SP interacts with our favorite recording medium, vinyl!
So we sampled drum machines, acoustic drums, guitar, synth, bass, vocals and music stems directly into the SP, clipping, re-pitching, chopping, and processing it to taste. Then, we pressed the results to vinyl and sampled that, creating an incredible library of 700 Vinyl SP one-hits, caked in character from the beautiful interaction between our favorite sampler and recording medium
That sounds very cool.
It also brings back memories of working with that drum machine that make me feel a million years old!
The most popular band I played in during the late 80s / early 90s, had an Emulator SP-1200 (I didn’t own the drum machine, just the electronic drums and acoustic drum triggers that would trigger it) that I would trigger from my Roland electronic drum kit pieces and from triggers on my acoustic drums. We used to call it “Emmie” like it was another band member. It tells you something when everything you used to play as a working musician is now referred to as vintage or relics!
