Re: Sound Character Comparion between 8bit (II/IIx) and 16bit...

2007-08-08 by Steve Rance

The main differance in sound quality when samples are not played at the 
native pitch is due to the design of the tracking filters used in all 
versions of the CMI. Other samplers in the era used different 
(cheaper!) methods to change the pitch of samples.
