My first sampler was the Roland DJ-70, a sampler with 4mb’s of memory you’d be lucky to find, it had the Roland S-760 sampling engine inside that enabled full synth editing, with wave editing on screen, and a must have for no one, which is the only reason I can see why it wouldn’t sell in big numbers, a scratch wheel. Yep, you heard right, a sampler with a scratch wheel, which sounds like a great thing, but how many uses can one really get from a scratch wheel. Actually today you could probably get a few more than occurred to us back in the day. Seemed Roland believed all the DJ hype, when in reality, the vast majority of DJs only ever played other people records...... it was easy and quick to use and had a useful basic sequencer for creating demos and phrases. Wish one would come up for sale in my area, I’d buy one again.

If I remember correctly the pitch bend acted as the cross fader and the cut in wasnt great so it was tricky getting decent scratches other than the basics. Sound quality was good though but I prefer the S760/750, I sold my DJ70 to a guy who was hyped up about using it for live scratching as he was going on top of the pops or something.

P.S.: I just checked: In Sound on sound you can read this: "However, worry not - an easy to install 4Mb upgrade not only doubles your sampling time, but brings the JS30 up to full 16‑bit operation. (Sampling time with the standard unexpanded 1Mb allocation of RAM is a total of 22.5 seconds at 44.1kHz and 45 seconds at 22.05kHz, by the way, with the user RAM split however you like across two banks, with 12 sample locations each)" 1MB to 4 MB? That smells a little bit like my old companion Atari 1040 STE...

Quirky and cryptic OSes, floppy disks, zip disks and scsi, bad and small screens, unaddressed bugs, etc. These days it's way better to go with something modern like a mpc live 2, mpc x, one, etc. Or a DAW like ableton live, which is the greatest sampler ever.

Someone's probably already said this but, 99 % of dirty switches and faders can be fixed by spraying them with electrical cleaner and using them repeatedly. I've fixed countless amplifiers and tape deck switches and never replaced one switch. If something is desperately dirty I resort to wd40 and let it dry before plugging it in. I've had amps go from unusable to as new just from cleaning pots and contacts.

These little panel mount tact switches, I've never had much luck just cleaning them. Plus, it really isn't so bad to replace em. And actually for this video, I cut a whole bit about trying to clean the faders, and never getting them close enough to spec.

@@JorbLovesGear weird that you couldn't fix the faders, they're usually really easy to clean. But it's true that often replacing is just actually easier than cleaning. Especially when disassembling is that easy. It's just that from the video it looked a bit like you skipped that step when you rightfully cut it out. Love your vids btw, your deepmind videos really helped me get started with mine. And with choosing the 12 rather than 6 voice.

Awesome video! The sound of this seems about as great as the workflow seems horrible... Started looking into 12 and 8 bit samplers some time ago but was hesitant about buying the JS-30. I just recently bought an old Yamaha SU-700 that has the ability to sample at different rates, also 8 bit. It also comes with some amazing (digital) filters. The problem with the SU is its decoders which are known to go bad but when you find a way to repair them or control the unit externally, it can do some amazing stuff! I very much enjoy watching your videos, thanks for making them!

What was Roland thinking to release an 8-bit sampler in the mid-90s??? Very strange. Saying that I can imagine this being very appealing now.
@LousyFacelift 2 жыл бұрын
It is actually capable of sampling in 16 bit, 44,1 kHz when you have the maximum memory installed (4MB). When you have only 1MB of menory installed, sampling automatically defaults to 8 bit, 22,05 kHz.

These were made in Italy? That totally makes sense because the Roland DJ-70 (Keyboard version of this) the only video manuals available are italian and they seem to have loads of them there, and no where else in the world.. Globalism I guess?
