I have actually done this on accident,and although i wasn't fond of 
the samples that came through i thought it interesting.I was fearful 
of trying it again,didn't want to damage anything.To respond to the 
Burroughs quote,it's been a long debate between me and my girlfriend 
about that very thought.At first when i started,to stay random I 
would lift off of sample discs{electric newspapers/drum loop 
cds/jungle noises/halloween sounds/)cds that would have like 100 
different samples.I would set them upside down and without 
looking,pick one & fast forward thru it stopping randomly and sample 
and edit the sound(s)without actually hearing it.After i filled up 
the Prophet then I would turn on the speakers to see what was 
there.She argues that its not random enough because i knew what cds i 
picked out and roughly knew what the sounds sounded like on each 
cd.The argument was fair enough.There have been more but they all end 
up that random doesn't realy exist.Anymore tricks out there?2fish.
