When I was a kid I built my own sampler from gathering the components & making the circuit board even had a preamp & mixer added for different inputs later adding high & low pass filters. I would hook it up to the VHS & sample actor voices for those explicit one liners "Feeling lucky punk" or explosions the special effects then add them all into a song. It's was great times always learning something & having fun at the same time with all your mates. One of our friends would sneak us into the radio broadcast station late at night on the grave night shift & we would sample a stack load off records or make our own mix tapes that didn't cost a thing, well the Maxwell tapes the good quality ones 90 XLII did, we used to get all the new hits before they hit the local records stores, naughty naughty hahahaha.

In the early 90's I was drummer in a band. To be able to practise at home, I lived in a not so sound proof apartment, I bought an Alesis D4 and trigger mics and stuffed my drums and played with a headset. I remember connecting it up to my Amiga to sample all the sounds from the module. It took quite some time to sample all 500 sounds because I was very much a perfectionist. I was glad I did after though since it ment I had a huge amount of drum samples to use when I made songs in the tracker.

This is fantastic! Man how I wish the internet was as established as it is today in the early 90's. I was a poor kid in a small town in Sweden and no one I knew had any knowledge about this stuff. I could've made so much higher quality stuff back then with the money I spent on the wrong equipment. Back then I didn't know what a sample was, I thought all electronic music was made with midi to expensive synths and drum machines. The only thing my parents could afford was a used Atari ST an a used Roland MT-32. In itself the MT-32 wasn't bad, but it had almost no sounds for EDM, especially drum wise. Then mid 90's I bought a Windows PC on installment, and an expensive DAC I don't remember the name of from a local music shop, because it supposedly had good General Midi. It sucked too, the drum kits were horrible. It wasn't until 1997 that I actually learned what a sample was when I got a collection of EDM drum loops on cd-rom, and FINALLY I had good kicks, snares and hihats.

Well no they didn't actual Musicians and Home producers used synth sample and Drum modules triggered by a midi sequencer used SMPTE time code to sync up a 4 track or 8 track into a mixer. They then played back the recorded instruments like Guitars and Vocals from the multitrack and the midi sequencer played the midi modules back live and you mixed that. In the early 80s we used synth modules and Hardware sequencers This was relatively new because prior to that Analoge sequencers triggered analog synths via trigger pulses and control voltages or built in sequencers like in the Sh101 or the Pro1. Midi effectively changed everythng, by the end of the 80s we were either using Cubase ( Yes it really is that old) or C /lab ( which later became Logic) on an Atari 1040 Or Steinberg Pro 16 or Pro24 This type of software shown here was for geeks who couldn't get girl friends Spent way too much time playing Elite. when not meeting with other geeks to play Dungeons and Dragons

Things like "real speech" photos and videos were all hopes for the future..... actually realistic colours were something of a dream. I was lucky to have a ZX Spectrum, then an Atari ST with a load of consoles along the way (Megadrive and Dreamcast were my favourites). You certainly know your stuff!
