Yamaha PSS-80 Rhythm Loops
March 31st, 2007 3 Comments
I picked up a PortaSound PSS-80 off Ebay, figuring it would be a good candidate for some circuit-bending experimentation (Click here for a YouTube video of a circuit-bent PSS-80 in action).
I sampled its built in percussion loops - there’s no headphone socket or line output (yet) so I recorded them using an Edirol R-09 pointed at the device’s speaker, then cleaned them up a bit. Unlike some of the keyboards in the PortaSound range, the percussion sounds aren’t PCM samples so they sound quite synthetic. The samples are 48kHz/16bit, tempo is roughly 124 BPM.

Hey! I am so glad someone has these files online! Do you happen to have the DEMO track as well? I love that song, it is pretty freaking awesome! If not, do you know what that song is based off of? I want it.. badly!
