Neumann U87AiKorg NEWS - MicroSampler YouTube Tutorial Series
Korg have released a new series of tutorial videos for the compact sampling keyboard the Korg Microsampler.
"The microSAMPLER is designed for performance. In addition to triggering samples as on a conventional pad-type sampler, you can also play the samples in a musical fashion, and even resample the result. The controllers you need for an exciting performance are laid out on the panel for intuitive operation. The status of the samples assigned to each key (and the item being edited) is indicated by the lit state of the LEDs running along the top of the keyboard, ensuring excellent visibility even on stage."
Video 1
The first video in the series introduces us to the five sampling modes available in the MicroSampler:
- Loop sampling for recording grooves and phrases, drum loops, etc
- One-Shot sampling for grabbing and triggering single events such as drums, etc.
- Gate sampling for playing a sound musically across the keyboard
- Auto-Next sampling for capturing phrases as multiple samples
- Key Gate sampling is best for grabbing multiple samples from the same source

The second video shows us how to sample and create a drum kit using the MicroSampler.
- Too many instruments simply offer sampling as an added feature. The microSAMPLER is all about sampling, in every creative form. Five distinct sampling methods allow you to work the way you want, to get the results you need. The microSAMPLER offers traditional One-Shot and Loop sampling, plus a number of creative sampling modes Loop, Key Gate and Auto-Next. When it comes to sampling, the microSAMPLER has it all.

The third video explores using effects and resampling in the MicroSampler.
- Developed for Korgs Kaos Pad series, the effect engine serves up a great selection of effects so important when editing samples. The twenty-one effects include not only traditional delay and chorus, but also ring modulator and grain shifter, and even a Looper that's derived from the Loop Recording feature of the Kaossilator Dynamic Phrase Synthesizer. The effects can be applied to any sound while resampling, allowing the effects to be used over and over again for more sonic expression.

The final video in the series explores the MicroSamplers powerful pattern sequencer.
- The pattern sequencer uses an overdub operating style that lets you continually layer your performances. You can switch between patterns during playback for seamless performances. Up to sixteen patterns (16,000 notes per pattern, or a maximum 64,000 notes) can be stored in each bank.
