This tutorial shows how to link a hardware sampler to a software sampler. I'm familiar with DAW's, but I've always worked with hybrid hardware/software setups. However, usually swapping information becomes cumbersome in hybrid setups, except in this particular setup. This setup is awesome imho, because it solves that problem by connecting both midi- and audio in/outputs with eachother. That causes the workflow to be very simple and fast. Samplers are easy opensource environments for audio, the power of re-sampling is something which can be easily forgotten in this software-era.

Popular software sampler (100% free) to use in conjunction with the Electribe ESX/EMX. It delivers an easy way to extend your electribe with sfz/sf2 soundfonts and complex samplemapping/resampling on keyboardparts. It's touted as the best hybrid workflow between hardware- and software. Requirements: a pc, electribe midi output to usb-to-midicable, (for esx: audio out of pc routed to elecrtibe audio-in). Recommended usage with free herman seibb's vsthost/savihot.

Would you like to experience that sheer joy that comes from building your own sounds, recording your own samples and mangling them with near endless sound shaping possibilities?"
