Korg DSS1: 36 sounds demo
YouTube via JackOasys | October 18, 2010
"Vintage series: DSS1. Un synth/sampler del 1986 per certi aspetti ancora interessante. Il grande limite è l'archiviazione dei suoni su floppy disc di ridotta capacità: appena due banchi da 32 suoni ciascuno (max 64 suoni per floppy). La particolarità - oltre la sua caratteristica "pasta sonora" - è la inconsueta (all'epoca) possibilità di disegnare le forme d'onda (waveforms) agendo su due sliders, per ppi salvarle e processarle. Facile da usare il campionatore, che dava interessanti spunti di trattamento del campione, pur con numerosi limiti nella pulizia sonora e nell'editing. Note di polifonia: 16 (8 voci, due oscillatori per voce). Tastiera dinamica con aftertouch. Canali midi IN-OUT-THRU. Altre specifiche tecniche sono facilmente consultabili in rete presso i siti specializzati in synth vintage."

"Vintage series: DSS1. A synth / sampler of 1986 in some respects more interesting. The major limitation is the storage of sounds on floppy disks reduced: only two banks of 32 sounds each (up to 64 sounds to floppy). The special - besides its characteristic "sound pasta" - is unusual (at that time) the opportunity to draw the waveforms (waveforms) using two sliders, ppi to save and process them. Easy to use the sampler, which gave food for treatment of the sample, albeit with many limitations in the clean sound and editing. Notes of polyphony: 16 (8 voices, two oscillators per voice). Dynamic keyboard with aftertouch. Channels midi IN-OUT-THRU. Other technical specifications are readily available online at sites specializing in vintage synth."
