I know that the time-stretch option was introduced with the S950, but it's an understatement to say that it would prove to be a highly useful addition. That time-stretch algorithm is synonymous with Akai samplers of the time. Also, an option to sum to mono would really bring it home. Sounds good.

That's always a big problem with reincarnations: what do you add and where do you stop adding features?
The beauty in these old things often was the absence of something that stimulated your creativity.

 

interesting, I like hardware restrictions but mimicking the hardware buttons and encoder is a big mistake and unacceptable unless its a true hardware and OS emulation like Sonic Charge Cyclone which is a freeware

And it's unfair to say that we only have effects on the market, we have Tal Sampler and Amigo Sampler

 

Apparently I think he's staying true to the limitations of the original sampler, even down to the 11 seconds of audio sampling. Not an issue for some, myself included, since thats more than enough time for what I normally sample plus the option for multiple instances is there if needed.

 

I really see it as a benefit, big sampling time, cheap memory, multisample libraries killed the art of sampling

vu950 / S950 is planned as a future plugin. Confirmed by the developer.

 

I am waiting for the VU1100.
