The SP-505 is a beast! I used that thing for like 5 or 6 years and got some ill beats out of it.



I got to tell you, life got better for me when I stopped worrying about what I didn’t have and started using what I do have.

this setup is more than enough.

Vestax dj sampler.


Mpc500 still my main sampler.

Simmons sds9 drum brain, Not really a sampler, but i've got an eprom burner, so i can make new sample eproms) Ssm filters, midi,

Alesis hr16, again, not a sampler but i've reprogrmed its sample roms with a multisampled 808 kit.

Not counting software it's basicly this:
- ASR-10 (sequencer sucked, but I still regret selling it)
- Akai S950 (still have it)
- maxed out MPC1000.

Perhaps gonna get me a EPS16+ or a ASR10, just for the sound.

Nice history Wormhelmet! I'm "kinda" similar.

Pioneer double tapedeck-1989 to 1992 (used with a turntable and a mixer)

Gemini DS-8-1992 to 1995 (spilled beer on it one day and burned out but it was a dope sound really heavy. I used to sample instruments off records for certain things like violins etc. But soon you sample something, boom, its like it came with a bassline that you couldn't hear when you sampled it.)

Roland MS-1-1995 to present (used once again in 2010)

BOSS SP-505-2001 to 2004 (sold that to Deck Daddy)

BOSS SP-303-2002 to present (its MINE gotdammit)

KORG Electribe SX-2004 to 2014 (this is an MPC on drugs, no lie)

Akai MPC500-2006 to 2010, then bought a new one in 2011 to present

Roland SP-606-2006 to present

Roland MV8800-2009 to present (bottom ****)

KORG ES2-2016 to present (the black one with 2.01 installed, **** that red one, its pink!)
