Hey!
I’m trying to find some demos of the AR that only uses samples. Also demos that use analogue synthesis for non-drum sounds. Anyone point me in the right direction?
It could be samples for drums and analogue synthesis for pads or just something completely out there. Stuff that isn’t aiming at making it sound like your typical drum machine.
Cheers!
Start by checking every vid by KOTARE?
Save some trawling - I made a playlist. 
TBH I haven’t uploaded much to YT for a while. I LOVE the AR as a sampler+synth engine, very very nice combo!
Also, some things from my Instagram page.

Wow! Impressive demos!!!
I’ve been listening closely to the AR and to my ears it excels more as a sampler+synth engine rather than a straight up drum machine. The analogue components sound too “tonal”. Which is great if thats what you’re looking for. I think my only gripe (I don’t own one) is that you can’t route external kit through the delay and reverb.
Anyway, thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
I totally understand what you’re saying and I agree complerely.
