The Roland SP-808 Groovesampler is already an old sampler from the 90's.
Nowadays they're sold for very low prices due to the 'problems' of the Zip Drives and it's disks.
But....it also contains an amazing monophonic synthesizer which can be controlled by the internal step sequencer or with an attached MIDI-keyboard.
In this raw video I show you how you can play with the SP-808 Groovesampler attached to a MIDI-keyboard.
For sure you will be much as amazed as I was when I dove deeper into this undiscovered gem.

Some important notes:
- You need to have the e-mix Studio OS installed on your SP-808.
Check this video how to do that:

- You need to have a MIDI-keyboard.
- You need to match the MIDI-Channels on both machines. For the SP-808 you need to set the MIDI-Channel of 'FX Ctrl Ch.' as the internal synthesizer is an effect.
