Features

Welcome on the official website for “SP1200 – the art and the science”,
the unique and official book about SP1200 legacy sampler !


Dave Rossum, from E-Mu Systems Inc:

In the chapters to come, PBODY will guide you through the world of the SP1200, its history, its underlying technology, and both conventional and unconventional techniques for making music with it. I am personally honored to have played a key role in creating such a time-honored instrument, and I must confess how delightful it has been to have a chance to pour over the schematics again and recall the whole design experience. I hope you’ll have as much fun reading as I and the whole E-mu gang did in producing the SP1200. Enjoy! –
