 Hmm.. I like the '8bit with low distortion' but I want to get at the samples!

 Ah well, not as good as it first seems :( Any software written for it
would be specific to anyone who owned one. The good thing with a
conventional sampler is that the samples can be played back on any 64
through the good old SID chip. But I am yet to find one with decent
quality. 
 If you manage to figure out how to access the memory (or better, get
straight to the sampler & just sample to 64 memory) then let me know.
Otherwise, no sale! (:
