Essentially it was a public enenmy beat (looped), couple with a moog source bass line, some strange guitar efx on a mic'ed piano, and an sk-1 sample of willy nelson's "Shotgun Willie" which I interspered with a loud distorted sample of my pal screaming "F*** you willie!"

Tuely some strange almost negativeland sounding stuff, I think I might be demented -- I have hundreds of Cd's and Lp's and 12" singles to sample from and I pick willie fricking nelson, ugh!

Oh yeah, more fun I did a school movie where I sampled Yoda from Star Wars - ROTJ, and we used our Highschool's video editing machines to do a little bit of editing. We had Yoda claiming he was constipated, and finally he just goes in his pants, the dialogue was done completely with an SK-1. Damn it took weeks to do it, when it was done it was downright hilarious to see a constipated muppet.

The sk-1 sounds like utter crap, but honestly it's the most fun I ever had with a sampler, I've got an E-mu now.

Get one at a garage sale for $5-10 bucks and viola, it will atleast give you some ideas to build from.

1. sample any sound you want (obviously) 2. activate the vibrato mode 3. press one or more keys to play the sample 4. while playing, press the loop button and "hold" the keys 5. the effect: the sampled sound goes by random far down or far high, maybe 5 or 6 octaves, and runs back to the pitch of the keys you are holding. unbelievable effect and never intended by casio technicians.

p.s. sorry about my spelling, hope you understand, what i mean.
