More Than Meets The Eye
In the past, owning a compact sampler meant sacrificing features found in software and high-end machines. The new SP-505 changes all that with helpful tools like sample Chop, for dividing loops into individual samples, and automatic BPM sync of phrases. And with onboard sequencing and professional-quality effects, you get a lot more than you pay for with this cool, tabletop groove sampling workstation.
Powerful Sample Editing
In addition to its 8-note, CD-quality sampling—with the ability to pitch samples chromatically—the SP-505 provides several powerful editing functions. A graphic LCD with waveform display allows you to zoom in when editing Start and End points or boost the level of a specific waveform range. The aforementioned Chop function is great for dividing loops into individual “slices,” which can then be replayed and rearranged at will. And with automatic BPM Sync, getting your loops together is a snap.
4-Part Sequencing with Adjustable Swing
A complete sampling workstation, the SP-505 features a 4-part sequencer with 15,000-note capacity, plus a Swing function for creating shuffle patterns. By mapping individual samples to the pads, you can create custom drum grooves and even overdub loops. Or, create sequences using the SP-505’s internal ROM Tones, which include a selection of drums, basses and synths. A Pattern Select feature makes changing patterns easy using the 16 pads—great for live performance.
Killer Effects Processing and Resampling
With 26 onboard effects, you can twist your samples into just about any sound imaginable. These high-quality groove effects include a new Vinyl Simulator, plus favorites like Isolator, Filter+Drive, Slicer, Reverb, Tape Echo and more—all of which can be controlled in real time using the knobs, or even re-sampled to another pad.
While the SP-505’s internal memory provides more than two minutes of CD-quality mono sampling, this can be expanded to over one hour using an optional 128MB SmartMedia card. These cards can also store sequencer data, and can be used to import .WAV/AIFF files from a computer as well. And with a choice of Mic, Line, or Coaxial and Optical digital inputs, you can sample virtually any source and process sounds through the internal effects.

Hardware Zoom RT 323
Fabricante:
A RT-323 é uma bateria e um baixo com sons sampleados em 24 bits e 48000 Hz, pode ser usada integrada com o Zoom Palm Studio, permite o uso de pedais e oferece suporte à midi (embora só uma entrada e uma saída) para gravação e reprodução em tempo real.
O botão deslizador pode ser usado para controlar o volume, o atack ou o pitch, outros dois grandes knobs podem ser usados para diferentes funções como o tempo que vai de 40 a 250 BPM. Outro destaque é o grande LCD que permite acessar diferentes informações ao mesmo tempo. A RT-323 vem com 377 sons de bateria, 55 sons de baixo e 64 Drum Kits de bateria. Mas se os sons de fábrica ainda não forem o ideal outros 64 Kits de bateria podem ser feitos e outros sons carregados via cartão Smart Media de até 128 MB.
Para controlar a bateria além dos 400 patterns pré-programados é possível usar os 13 pads com sensibilidade de velocidade ou usar pads externos através da entrada MIDI que podemos ver na foto acima.
Hardware Zoom RT123
Fabricante:
A RT-123 foi projetada para ser um instrumento compacto, pesa apenas 550 gramas e tem apenas 15 cm de largura e 20 cm de comprimento. Foi projetada para ser usada por guitarristas, por isso os botões estão em uma disposição ruim para performances ao vivo e também não possui sons bons para hip-hop ou acid.
Infelizmente buscando reduzir o tamanho a Zoom cortou algumas funções importantes, essa bateria aceita cartões de memória de até 128 megas, mas os presets não podem ser salvos no cartão.
