Why would anyone even think about picking this sampler up, then? Well, because it does such a good job of providing the much sought after “vintage crunch” by emulating the vintage samplers which have become the holy grail of gritty hip-hop and drum and bass beats. The filter, luckily, can be switched in and out for each layer, but other than that, your tweaks apply to everything. While modulation is quite extensive, most of it applies to the entire program and can’t be set up on a per-keygroup or even per-layer basis like I’m used to expecting. The sample engine features four layers, each of which can house multiple keygroups. On the face of it, TAL-Sampler is quite limited. It’s no surprise that TAL-Sampler, the latest offering, takes this ethos and runs with it exactly where you would hope. TAL-NoiseMaker (included as one of the top picks in our free VA synth round-up) is still one of the best sounding freeware VA synths despite being several years old, and their more recent recreations of the SH-101 and Juno 106 are simple, cheap and very realistic analog emulations that have earned many compliments while on duty providing synth pads, leads and basses in my music. Togu Audio Line or TAL have some serious property to their name.
