ScuzzBlog: Diaries January 2019 Entry 23rd January 2019: Post 01: Sound Sampling - Technosound Turbo Sound Sampling - Technosound Turbo Best £40 I ever spent on an Amiga gadget. The very splendid and so small for what it did .. the Technosound Turbo 2 as in my case. I just loved plugging this into my cassette deck and sampling stuff. I would also take sounds from the video recorder. I would then mix them into music sessions with Pro-Tracker and video mix in AMOS. It really was so easy sampling sounds and the files were not that big. I had this bit of software on the computer called Noisum and it let me configure all my keyboard keys to play samples. So funny. I do have three versions of the sound sampler and I wasn't at all surprised to find a Vidi-Amiga unit in the actual sampler that I purchased for my original Amiga. The two worked very close together. I also have various other sampling devices and software such as Stereo Master, Megalosound and Perfect Sound. All do the same thing and there isn't much to choose between them. There are also so many samples in circulation and demo tracks that let you take music and sounds and play around with them. The opportunities are endless when it comes to sounds and music. I had a go setting up the Techno with a very old mini cassette player but ran into a problem with the connector on the player as there is a trick to getting it to play both stereo channels but it needs both hands. So I was only able to record one track with the Turbo, but it kinda demonstrates what I wanted to show here. I actually want to have a further play with this so I dragged another Amiga down off the bench to use in conjunction with a sample bank that I have. Great fun today. I once sampled nearly all the classic lines of Ghostbusters and then keyed them into my Amiga keyboard. Magic. So today's picture gallery features the TechnoSound Turbo in the three forms I have from New Dimensions. Sound Sampling - Technosound Turbo
