- you can use a midi sampler with your A1200, plus you'll be able to use any
- sequencer you like and not have to worry if it supports the same sample
- playing commands.
-
- Also once you've built up the sequences on the sampler you can then sample the
- sequences into the Amiga and mix them with extra amiga instruments which will
- result in a better alround sound.
