Simmons sds7 Pwnd again by the 909

YouTube via MADRRRRR.

"This time i'll show again how different the sds 7 reacts to changes in the accent of the 909. Later on i use the same pattern and scroll through some sds presets.

Very nice wet towel snares. That will slap around your ears.
Lovely hihat type of hiss. Raw claps en snares with nice noise
And that instant raw noise sound of Reese - Funk, Funk, Funk ... Or Lil Louis Video Clash type of sounds

Enjoy ...

( Next up is sampling the sds sounds with my sp1200 and beat the hell out of it .. but that's later ) "

"Problems with waldorf Blofeld. Others can not be showed. For instance freezing patch selection menu."

Yamaha CS-15 Drone Sounds

via altemark on the Matrixsynth Forum.

"The CS-15 is a pretty flexible analog synthesizer, thanks to it having two of everything - except for the one LFO (which goes up to 1000 hz - fast!). The envelopes are fast and snappy, though not as powerful as the ones on the lesser model, the one-oscillator CS-10. But you can not demand much more from such a cheap and still well built synthesizer. Of course you are left wishing for some features - for example it is lacking in inter-oscillator modulation, no cross-mod, sync or the likes despite two oscillators." click here for the full post including mp3s on infosmash.
