Noah Lennox, l'home que els samplers el van fer gran

A sampler is an electronic musical instrument closely related to a synthesizer. Instead of generating sounds from scratch, however, a sampler starts with multiple recordings (or "samples") of different sounds added by the user, and then plays each back based on how the instrument is configured. Because these samples are usually stored in RAM, the information can be quickly accessed.

The sampler has become an important instrument in hip hop music, electronic music, and avant-garde music.

Així ho explica wikipedia i no crec que hi hagi una manera de fer-ho millor. Ara, un exemple. No és rigorosa actualitat, però servirà ja que en el post anterior parlàvem d'ell i el sampler que va utilitzar de The Dovers.
