Re: [Doepfer_a100] Decent samples

2008-09-23 by Florian Anwander

Hello,

As far as I remember there are also the examples from the old demo-cd on 
http://www.doepfer.de/mp3/main.htm, but they have bad mp3-artefacts. 
Unfortunately there is no better copy around.

Beside of this: I found, that the satisfaction with the Doepfer depends 
only partially from the sound (sic!). More and more I find, that the 
handling of the system, you may call it "user interface", is at least of 
the same importance. After I had bought the Roland System 100 from Bakis 
I was overwhelmed from the great access to the parameters. Of this 
synth. It has much less technical abilities, but it makes me create 
better sounds-
So it might be worth looking at different systems in this regard too.
