I’ve been using these instruments in my productions and remixes - they are FIRE! and I can't wait to hear what the MPC community does with them“ F9 have pioneered multi-sampled instrument design over the last 5 years and now in this release, they have taken it even further with a ‘triple-cooked’ sampling process.
