The Hollow Sun samples are looped. Personally, I wouldn't want looped
samples. The beginning of the sound would have to be chopped off to
eliminate the instrument's attack for smooth looping.

Some of M-Trons's samples are pretty good. They also have samples that
are unavailable in any other collection. Some are redundant; same
sound, different name, different sources.

Sonic Implants claims to have gotten their samples from Tron models
M200, M300 and MkII. Anybody know what an M200 is?
