SAMPLE SOURCES, LICENCES & MODEL STATUS

TR-808 recordings: Michael Fischer; hosted by TidalCycles. The repository declares CC0; the original 1994 README describes them as free. TR-909 analog recordings: Janne G:son Berg, shared by altemark on Freesound under CC BY 4.0; these bundled conversions by 5up-okamura were limited, faded and reduced to 22.05 kHz. DUST resamples both sources to a 12-bit nominal 26.04 kHz model. The 909 hybrid uses 808 cymbals because rights to 909 ROM-based cymbals and hats are not cleared. This model has not been calibrated against a physical SP-1200. Full notices.

QUICK START

Make some noise.

Tap a pad to unlock audio. PLAY starts the segment; RECORD captures your hits. Choose bank A–D and edit its 16 steps. Hold a pad to open its sample editor.

Your project saves automatically on this device. Import audio opens the sampling editor: choose a region, capture at 1×, 1.35×, 2× or 4×, then restore pitch on playback. Use manual markers, equal slices or transients to chop onto pads. Undo restores the whole assignment. Project export includes samples and original sources; WAV export uses the same audio engine as playback. Import older DUST projects here; your original session data is preserved during migration.
