The manual is thick n confusing ....
Anyone knows a howto tutorial
on how to create a new PGM to have
few different samples or same sample "chopped" or trimmed and assigned to different pads
1-16 with each filter n trigger settings
that are corresponding to 1-16 pads in MPC1000 for triggering S950?
How to do it on S950 ... like a template that would b easy to reuse each time
I start to work on new beat?
Well., I kindah figured that in order t. "chop" a sample on S950
I have to copy Same same and rename it than trim it to a "chop"
discard beginning and end of each "chop" ...
but I got a basic memory something about 715K ....
so I've realized the memory upgrade is needed....
but what are my memory options on the "cheap"?
sorry for maybe basic question
peace

U answered ur own questions right there.
I also have a template program. U don't really need the manual because the s950 is very easy to use.
Speed up ur sample before sampling, slow it down inside the 950. Use lower bitrate's to preserve memory.
Then it's just copying the sample untill u have enough chops, then truncate.
Ram is expensive, almost as expensive as the machine itself:
http://www.masterbits.de/exp_e.htmTo answer the OP's question:
I use the s950 as main sampler when I use it. That way I can keep tweaking it with the envelope and filters the s950 has. Also the limitations forces u to approach things from a whole another perspective.
