OT one of the 4 samplers that changed music history

[SoundRider]

Now this is a star on the walk of fame … OT named in the line with Fairlight CMI, E-MU SP 12, and MPC … at least this is the opinion of musicradar … what do you think?

The 4 samplers that changed musical history (and how they did it)

Fairlight is polyphonic with more octave range than OT! 77000$!
For Fairlight users, they forgot Herbie Hancock, with Quincy Jones at 5m10.
Edit : My bad, they linked the video with kids.

Rockit, made with Fairlight in 1983

-It’s a deliberately complex and multi-faceted piece of kit, requiring serious investment of time to get to grips with its potential.

-You can scratch the surface of the features and understand how it works within hours, but you won’t get the most out of it without truly studying the manual and exploring the deeper functionality.

-Those who put in the effort got a fantastic instrument just as capable of reworking loops and hits in the studio as being the centrepiece of a live setup.

…Legit

I was lucky enough to be around when the Fairlight was introduced. It was all anyone was talking about. And it made a few artists a fortune if they were lucky enough to have one.

The Fairlight went to the North Pole and back. The OT circumnavigates the world.

what do you think?

I think that MusicRadar publishes content-free clickbait listicles.
