Dealing with samples on the UW

2006-01-29 by travesty14850

Hi there--I've been an MD user for a while, and just recently sold it
to buy a UW.  The new unit should be here in a few days.  I've spoken
to a couple of users about it and am very excited to get moving...but
I'm wondering.  Someone (milkmansound) tells me that he is MIDI'ing in
16-bit samples...does C6 do the dithering to 12?  Or is it better to
do the bit conversion before sending them over?  Or does the UW
actually secretly operate in 16 bits?

Or do you all prefer sending the samples as audio, and using the UW's
converters?

BTW, I probably know a couple of you from other boards...I'm usually
called inverseroom...and here's a link to a song that uses a couple of
MD kits I constructed, one that's supposed to sound like the mono drum
machine on a Yamaha PSS toy keyboard, and the other a more elaborate
kit.  Here ya go:
