So the WaveROM memory is exchanged, as there are no user sounds in the SD 1000. I'd be interested in the question whether the total WaveROM size remains the same or is extended with these alterations.

I find that really odd and am most curious to learn the trutha about it.... regards, John

I'd be interested in the question whether the total WaveROM size remains the same or is extended with these alterations. Sorry for delay in response (as will be the case for the next few weeks while we work on some new fotage releases).... WaveROM size remains the same.... just substituted some samples for woodwind, guitar and accordions ... which are triggered with high velocity to include 'articulation' of the instrument, thus making them sound more 'natural' and 'realistic' - we 'borrowed' this idea from the Ajam package in the AUDYA series (which takes it up a notch to also include velocity switching between samples). Hope this clarifies the question. _________________________ [KETRON - USA] Design Engineer & Product Specialist. www.KetronAmerica.com

Crossover Member Registered: 11/19/17 Posts: 596	Thanks for the answer. When I owned the SD 1000, I found a lot of samples sound very appealing, but very few had velocity sample switching and thus many lacked dynamics. So it makes sense you've addressed that. If I wanted to buy the Ajamsonic version, it would of course be important to know which other samples were dropped to include these new ones. I particularly liked the pipe organ sounds and would have been shocked to find one of them missing... (But I'm not planning on another SD1000). Edited by Crossover (10/06/18 03:27 PM)

I can visually see the factory sounds, and in addition, see the great sounds AJ has added in the user section. In many cases they are better.
