My first 3 Beats on the Ensoniq ASR X

Описание: Sigh...I should really stop buying samplers or else I am going to run out of space lol My friends, family, I hope all of you are doing well. So let me give you a little back story on how I ended up buying this Ensoniq ASR-X. As usual I was surfing the web just browsing looking at what people are selling online. Specifically Facebook market place, and I searched up "Ensoniq" to search for a SCSI port for the EPS 16 Plus or a good deal on an ASR 10. I then came across this ASR-X. Now I have heard and read of the ASR-X but to be honest, I didn't really know much about them but I knew that A LOT of people complained about it's sequencer. When I say A LOT, I mean you go online and it's one of the first thing pop up upon searching. So I made an offer and the seller declined, so I let it be and completely forgot about it. A week later he send me a message saying if I wanted to purchase the sampler at the offer I made him. Now the offer I made him was a lowball offer considering what they are going for online but it was honestly the amount I was willing to spend, considering it didn't have the 8 outs or a SCSI port and if you know, people online try to rip you off when selling the ports for any Ensoniq gear. Let's just say I bought it for way cheaper than what someone would sell a SCSI port for the ASR-X. Anyway I went to pick it up during the week, luckily the guy lived like 10 mins from my job, so I went to pay him a visit during my work break. He told me it was his fathers, and that he didn't want it anymore as he hadn't used it in years. I turned it on turned a couple knobs, tested it out a bit, it appeared to work fine. Now once I took it home for further examination I noticed that the the encoders would jump around and skip certain fields, which was VERY ANNOYING. It made impossible to chop. Luckily thanks to "100 things I Do" I was able to take the ASR-X and clean the encoders and it made
