Thanks for the advice mate, I do use a PC, but I've kinda got my heart set on a hardware sampler, for no other reason than the fact that it feels slightly cooler to own a decent piece of hardware. I'm a big sci-fi lover, so it feels kinda futuristic to use an actualy dedicated box!

BTW - I like YOUR music, especialy the one you did on WAHWAH mate :-)
also 'temple records' one..........:-)
