| | Sampler (musical instrument) |
| | A sampler is an electronic musical instrument that uses stored audio signal sampless, generally recordings of existing sounds, and plays them back at a range of pitches. | | | The modern-day music workstation usually features an element of sampling, from simple playback to complex editing that matches all but the most advanced dedicated samplers. | | | The emergence of the digital sampler made sampling far more practical, and as samplers added progressively more digital processing to their recorded sounds, they began to merge into the mainstream of modern digital synthesizers. |

| | The sampler is not a musical instrumental (in the traditional sense of a musical instrument), it is instead repurposed to turn one DJ repurposing two turntables into a thousand mini DJs repurposing two thousand virtual, mini turntables. | | | In electronic music -- which finds its most popular moment in the '70s, German band Kraftwerk -- a musician plays a musical instrument and is concerned about, for instance, the key he/she is playing in. | | | The sampler has replaced it in studio and the DAT machine at live shows. |

| | SAMPLIST.COM WELCOME TO SAMPLIST |
| | A samplist is a musician that uses the sampler as their sole musical instrument, rather than playing the notes on the instrument that the sounds were derived from. | | | Samplist was created in 1996 with the goals of documenting the current state of sampling and establishing the sampler as a legitimate instrument by introducing the concept of "Samplists" as musicians. | | | This is done by storing the sounds into a sampler's memory bank, and then arranging the sounds with a sequencer to create a composition. |

| | Mounds of Sounds |
| | A sampler, on the other hand, is more than a digital-audio playback rig: It's a musical instrument that can morph digital audio into wild new textures and apply deep filtering and modulation (motion), as well as repitch, resize and reverse the original sample. | | | Traditional samplers, namely hardware samplers, are capable of digital multilayer recording, as well as resampling (recording a processed sample to itself). | | | What is most important is not which sampler you own, but what you can do with it. |

| | Unlike analog synthesizers, which generate sounds with oscillators, samplers use recorded sounds as their building blocks. | | | For example, the A-flat played by a trumpet can be recorded, digitized, loaded into a sampler's memory, and triggered by a MIDI keyboard. | | | Most samplers can also alter the characteristics of a sound–change its attack, pitch, and harmonic makeup, for example. |

| | If you don't think the sampler can be a musical instrument, you haven't been listening to the music of Amon Tobin! | | | If you listen to Martin Denny and all that easy-listening stuff from the '50s and '60s, their idea of Hawaiian or Eastern music was so far off from reality, but by virtue of that, it created a new sound. | | | While the sampler has become a staple ingredient of most studios, few people can claim to have exploited it to quite such extreme levels as Amon Tobin. |
