Here it is. Samples of the little sampler from the 80's. These are the drum kit sounds from the SK-1.
There are 8 samples from the SK-1 here so I split them among 2 tones since the G1 only allows 5 samples per tone.
The drum samples in the 2 wave tones are automatically lined up along the lowest 8 naturals when you layer them in 2 zones.

Here's some of my synth tones I've created. I collected them and categorized them. This is a set of 10 saw based tones. These were all inspired by one thing or another. The cryptic abbreviations of the tones hint at what I was going for although now I don't even remember some of them.

A stage setting with mildly prominent trombone mixed with strings. This stage setting has a very realistic wide sound stage with the trombone center of the mix. Pedal 2 adds expression.

This is a stage setting with oboe in the mix. The strings have a wider sound stage while the oboe is centered in the mix. Pedal 2 adds expression.

Stage Setting with String Section and Trombone across the entire range and Concert Timpani/Snare/Strings in the lower range

My attempt at the sounds for playing the intro to the 1987 recording of Here I Go Again by Whitesnake. Mike Martin tackled this song early on by request. I decided to start from scratch with my own interpretation of the sound. Piano is in the lowest octave.
Demo of the sound here.

A stage setting I was working on. The sound is inspired by the opening of the 1987 song Carrie by Europe.

This is my take on the distorted organ/synthy sound heard in the song Gold on the Ceiling by The Black Keys.
Try all versions. Let me know what you think in the comments. Version 2 is my pick for the song.
I added portamento for version 3 since the sound is kinda synthy and reminds me of the XW solo synth.

These are some of my personal user tones for the MZ-2000. Some of these date back more than 10 years. These are random tones I designed for various projects in the past.

Inspired by Oxygene the album. This is a knob and slider tweaking playground. Tweak away and have fun.

10 Synth Hex tones of various styles. All inspired by sounds I heard in the 80's. Enjoy!

This is a bit different than anything else I have attempted. I worked with the hex layer waves to create both a Ukulele open picked and muted picked string sound. Initially there will be an arpeggio pattern active on zone 2 that will automatically strum for you. I also created a phrase that is active on zone 1 and plays the muted strum for you. You will need to load the included phrase separately for that. I recommend using it. The downside to the strum phrase is it's not velocity sensitive. Playing the muted strum manually will allow velocity sense. The arpeggio button is what turns on/off all of the automation. If you only want to turn off one zone of automation, press and hold the arpeggio button, select the zone, then go down to zone and change it to off.
To play the pattern use a rhythmic back and forth between your sustain pedal and the muted strum in the left hand. Release the sustain pedal and play the muted sound almost simultaneously.
Zone 1 = Muted Ukulele in the lower octaves (strum emulation created by the arpeggiator running the STRUM phrase)
Zone 2 = Open Ukulele in the upper octaves (strum pattern created by a modified factory arpeggio pattern)
Slider 1 = Expression level of the muted strum zone 1
Slider 2 = Expression level of the open ukulele zone 2
Slider 6 = Reverb level
Knobs = Master EQ (preset to this stage setting for the ukulele sound)
Download the STRUM phrase separately and place in user slot 150

This is a tweak and further development of a previous stage setting of mine. One designed for Whitesnake - Here I Go Again.
This one adds a new analog-ish synth layer along with other smaller tweaks. I was able to find the isolated vocal track version of the Whitesnake song. Through that, I was able to hear more individual parts of the overall synth layer they used in the recording. I then took those ideas to this stage setting.

A piano sound that transports you to those early years of audio recording. Sounds just like an old upright and recording of it.

A steel drum hex layer tone by request. Beefed up version of the GM Steel Drum tone. A syn voice pad is added on layer 6.

Experimental hex layer tone. MP3 Demo on the download page.

A PWM Lead type hex layer tone. MP3 Demo on the download page.

This was a shot in the dark programming attempt at this song. I couldn't find any good info about the sounds used in it. This is my best guess. This is 2 zones and two custom tones in a stage setting. The zones are split in the middle.

For playing the the song "Bang The Drum All Day" as heard in the video.

This was something I originally did on the PX-5s. I have heard some people use the XW's for this song. I decided to give it a go myself.
This is a step sequence and performance file along with custom melody tones for playing this song.

SweetDreams.ZPF - The performance file that brings everything below together.
SweetDreams.zip - Uncompresses as the ZSS step sequnce file used in the performance file above. Place in U:1-6
SweetLead.ZTN - Tone used in the performance zones 1 and 2. Place in U:107.
SawSweet.ZTN - Tone used in the step sequence parts 10 and 11. Place in U:106
SquareSweet.ZTN - Tone used in the step sequence parts 12 and 13. Place in U:105
Bender wheel is disabled for the lead sounds. Pitch bend is tuning the tom drum hit in the step sequence by way of the sequencer control track.

Someone keeps asking for more cowbell. Well...... 88 keys of cowbell!! Just because we can.

This is my edited version of Jerry Kovarsky's Touch EP1JK and an added key noise zone for no good reason.

This takes my original VelTenorSax and improves several areas. This new one has some light delay added.

These stage settings use hex tones to group the various size orchestral string instruments onto a single key. The left zone will be set as a major chord and the right zone a minor chord.
The major chord hex tone files are included for use in other stage settings only. They are not needed for these stage settings.
