however, hollowsun was the pinnacle of well trimmed, good samples. hollowsun is the first reason why i got interested in drum machines.

Thank you for your kind words. It makes me very happy to know that maybe HS was instrumental in getting you into all this

HS never went away - it just dropped the extensive free service when it became too expensive to maintain. I still do maintain a smaller freebie service (in fact, I should update that!)

Currently I am working with Alesis on their Fusion workstation:

Only George Clooney could do me justice

"Before And After"

If you'd be playing Steve's kid i think we should call the movie "Hollow Son"

yea i know im late but would love those sounds!

anyone?

If you read the thread it should explain what went on. These sounds are only currently available as part of the Nostalgia VSTi. Any other source will be breaking many copyright laws.

I'll have a chat with Steve and see if we can't get something arranged, but I wouldn't hold your breath.

Anyway, a lot of the stuff on the original MPC CF card was our work, so some of that stuff you probably already have
