Sample Only Playback?

If one would want, could the AR play samples only, without any analog synthesis?

I’m thinking in particular about open hi-hats and ride cymbals, which analog circitry can’t synthesize very well.

Yes, but only by turning the analog sound generation to silent for that voice.

I’m hoping for 24 bit, but only expecting 16.

That should work, thank you! :smiley:

I’d be very surprised if there was not a decent sounding analog cymbal and hihat machine in the AR, but yes for realistic cymbals then samples are more suited, so volume locks could be used perhaps.

I don’t see why not this cant be handled in the osc section. Where you could simply turn down the oscillator and keep the sample volume up.
