[sdiy] Drum sample playback

[Nicholas Keller]

No Kylee,  

I have not, and I know it's been around for a while already. There's another module called a sample slicer which looks like fun as well, but the only sample play back module I have in my system is a Doepfer a-112 wavetable oscillator, which unfortunately does not support SD cards

So for a given amount of CPU power you can either have tons of voices that alias like hell when you transpose the samples or a quarter of those voices with nice clean detuning of the samples. I suspect this is where they might have cut corners.

(That's what I used to do with my old Akai S01 sampler that had crappy linear interpolation, and turned hi-hat samples into rustling paper bag sounds as soon as you touched the transpose control!)
