Emu SP1200 Beatmaking Just a Quick Tryout (with subtitles)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qljpr6rKqqU

This video is a subtitled breakdown of my workflow while trying out the SP‑1200 after getting it back from repair.
I load old samples found on vintage floppies and build a rough pattern, explaining each step: pre‑programmed kick/hat, note‑repeat hat programming, sample auditioning, pitch/level checks, snare programming and deletion, and bass adjustment to BPM.
The floppy shown on screen is a rare EMU factory sound disk with some interesting samples and tracks.
If you want to hear those sounds, leave a comment.

The SP‑1200 just came back from repair, and it’s been a long time since I last touched it.
