Tape Samples (Quick Question)

[Loose Cannon]

Do any of you sample from tapes?

(I do that sometimes, but not cuz i want analog sound but because i dont have it on vinyl or a cd)

i do now that i got a tape player i can plug into my pc the other day.

hate the static though.....10 times worse than wax

I just got my tape player plugged in... Reason being becuase i have a lot more ill samples on tape... You still get full stereo and it sounds fine... My tape player removes the static for me

i sample anything. i made a song from my 1 year-olds barney toy. i have no pride, conscience, nor limits.

Sampling from tape is cool, eventhough I have a DAT recorder, sometimes I use an anolog tape deck just for the roughness of the sound quality. Especially those old tapes that have been played a million times...lol. Thats one of the best things about hip-hop, it practically doesn't have any limitations to what can be sampled and used whereas other genres have a more defined set of rules. I just can't imagine hearing a rough sample on classical music. Tape hiss can be a nice touch sometimes.

I don't even own a tape player any more but if I did I would sample from it, I sample everything and anything.
I usually like crapy sounds

i hate my tape player, i cant see myself sampling a tape.CiTY

The only way I would sample from tape is if I have a nice amp system with a good EQ, even though I have experimentally sampled from tape...I would much rather use wax though...or something live

I bring out the tape deck every now and then. I had to get this jazz bassline off a cassette once... it worked out out fine. Shit, I grabbed a piece out of "About A Boy" and I have that on VHS! LOL

i have sampled from tape also. vinyl is better. the only time i sample from tape now is if i dont have it on vinyl.
