909 hats

2002-12-20 by Rui Peixoto

I\ufffdve spoken to elektron in past about the possibility of uploading some 
short samples to the memory. It already has audio inputs, all it needed 
would be some free ram, and the possibility  to send the sounds through 
sysex. This would be a good way to save them on computer. But they declined 
it, saying that the MD wasn\ufffdt a sampler, and I can understand that. But a 
909 hats sample is becoming really necessary. I do completly experimental 
sound, but there\ufffds nothing like those hats to put your head spinning. I\ufffdm 
all forward to experimenting and getting your own original sounds, but when 
those hats come in, they really rock the floor. And it\ufffds true. somtimes, the 
whole groove is geate, but when yu pul in the hats, something just don\ufffdt cut 
it and make it sound digital, and toyish. I\ufffdm improving my hats messing with 
dist, srr, and filters and stuff, but there\ufffds no way to get that metalic 
grungyness that is melodic in all frequencies that matter. Those hats are 
something...
Another thing I\ufffdd like to see would be a reversed cymbal sample, or a 
parameter that would let you reverse the sample you\ufffdre using (E12) . It\ufffdd be 
sweet, and vcery usefull at the loop\ufffds breakpoint.
Even though Md\ufffds is a masterpiece. I\ufffdm really looking forward to elektron\ufffds 
new piece....
When\ufffds NAMM btw?
