Pete Cannon's Gear
This is the Akai S1100. I think it was the first Akai sampler with effects in it. It's got a couple of reverbs, delays, echoes, pitch shift. This Akai that I've got has an SD replacement where the original floppy disk drive was and it connects to the SCSI port on the back and tyhen allows me to have essentially thousands of floppy disks on a little SD card. It's plug & play as well which is great. So If you want to save parts it's easy to dip between setting up key groups and samples.
Pete gives the Polyend Tracker a jungle run-through in this video. As a hardcore Amiga guy, he knows what he wants from tracker-based workflows.
I've got something like the S-950, which is a very famous sampler used by a lot of Hip Hop people like Pete Rock, DJ Premier. Also used by people like Shy FX in the early Jungle scene. It's a 12-bit sampler, it's got amazing A/D converters and has a very round sound. It's also known for its filter which is really deep. It can take a little longer to setup and can be a bit of a faff but for the sound alone it's worth it.
