can you play the regular piano keys on this and learn how to play the piano on this ? , or is this to advanced for a beginner ???? i just bought a yamaha mm6 61 keyboard and i honestly dont like it . Answer please !!
I wouldn't really recommend the microSAMPLER for learning to play piano. The keys are smaller than standard size, and it's a smaller keyboard. You may want to look at a digital piano like the Korg SP250 or SP170. Please feel free to contact me with any other questions or concerns.
So is this unit, like a lot of modern electronic instruments, dependent on a computer to run in a live setting?
My main desire is to have a means to trigger longer loops or backing tracks live, without having the occasionally ridiculous look of a laptop on stage during a rock show.
No, the microSAMPLER can be used independently of your computer. You can use your computer to load samples, edit sounds, and create performance setups, but leave the computer at home when it's time to gig. Feel free to contact me with any other questions or concerns.
Here's my main question about the Microsampler - let's say I want to have a one-shot sample that I trigger, and I want the sample to play itself entirely from beginning to end, without me having to keep the key held down the entire time. Is that possible? Would that have something to do with where the release time is set for those particular samples? Thanks!
i am thinking about buying this. i have a few questions. would i be able to use it as a regular keyboard with the grand piano sound? would i be able to record me playing the keyboard with grand piano on the microsampler then loop it, change the sound and record over that and loop it so it sounds like 2 instruments together? (hard to understand but it is important to me) finally would i be able to connect it to my mac and use it as a midi keyboard in garageband. thanks :)
This is funny, the approach of explaining this is to people who possibly never only knew keyboard samplers. When i was a teen that's all there was. Technology going backwards...I love it!
Would it be a good addition to my Korg EMX1?? I need to put vocals to my tunes.. and I think the only way is with a sampler right?? I'm new to these kind of stuff.. what you recommend?
Depends on how you want to work. If you are recording your music into a peice of music production software, you just need a simple audio interface and a microphone. If you are recording to a hardware piece, you will often have an on-board mic preamp for recording vocals. This microSAMPLER would allow you to record vocals and play them back on command, but it's not really intended to track an entire vocal performance into it's internal memory. Thanks!
how about memory how much and is it expandable? cause this samples are big probably to have good sound quality?! So is it via memory sticks usb dongles or only inside keyboard itself and how big?
At the highest quality (48KHz sample rate), the microSAMPLER's internal memory can store 21 minutes of mono audio. This internal memory can't be expanded, but you can increase the sampling time by reducing the sample rate to 24KHz, 12KHz, or 6KHz, resulting in 42 minutes, 85 minutes, or 170 minutes of sampling time, respectively. Please feel free to contact me with any other questions or concerns.
I'd like to have something like this for sampling, editing and replaying audio from several sources, including DVD, CD, vinyl and other instruments such as guitar and old keyboards. Would that be possible with this instrument?
Absolutely. The microKORG can sample audio from any source you can plug into it including CD players, DVD players, record players (with phono preamp), MP3 players, other keyboards, or any other electronic instrument. Please feel free to contact me with any other questions.
Thanks for your interest in Kraft Music and the Korg microSAMPLER. The microSAMPLER is the newest instrument in the Korg micro series (which also includes the microKORG and microKORG XL. Please feel free to contact me with any other questions or concerns. Thanks again!
so it can record mp3 samples tracks and then you can play on the keyboard?
