I didn't see responses in my e-mail, i don't check my threads otherwise. First, I don't know my asr like i knew my mpc. It just has alot of things that i personally feel are not exactly necessary. For example, in the vid, when you assign a midi track, i don't see why you would still want a standard base channel. But, i know it is old.
I have to say, i'm really kind of mixed with putting these vids up. I admit candidly that it's a basic look at what you can do. I don't know it as well as other equipment i own. At the same time, i remember right after i bought it seeing more than a few threads saying that the ASR 10 is a much better way to go than an mpc. It took me accouple hours to learn an mpc, maybe a week to be able to do exactly what i want. The asr 10, even after using 2 other hardware samplers in my own studio, much less in other environments, it's not as easy, or plain easy.
I get alot of mixed responses in the videos i have posted compared to non-ASR videos. There are alot of people who know more than me who are willing to tell me. That's cool. However, there are like 2 other videos on youtube that show an asr being used for hip hop where the use of it is actually explained. So honestly, i'm iffy on posting more vids i get the "that's basic" knowledge alot.
The only reason why i make these is to show people where i stuggled at first. I hope some of you more in tune with ensoniq samplers can understand that. Honestly, if you make a better video, i'll take mine down, i don't have some "youtube" pride, i just want to show how i use it. I don't want to sound like i'm bitching, moaning, complaining. I just know some people really want these vids. I won't ever do an mpc video because it's all out on the table. ASR, not really.
I guess my point is, please realize i'm just trying to show what you can do in 45 min after you have started to learn the machine (you can see me stumble because it's not main machine). This is all wierd to me because i've had my most postive and negative responses to these particular videos.
Sorry for that long post, I just had to get that off my chest. I'd love for there to be much more vids on this, again, not a pride thing at all. I'm not the "asr" dude, i just happen to have one and love the thing, and hate it.
