Re: [Doepfer_a100] The bloody A-112 Sampler

2014-01-20 by achtung_999

Best way to get good sounding samples in the A112 is using Zoë's Python script. Convert the sample you want to use to 8 bits on your computer. Use Zoë's script to get it to a format that the A112 can use. And then transfer the result to the A112 using a mididump program. I would
