Boss SP-202: Complete Guide to a Unique Hardware Sampler

You may have noticed my recent obsession with the Boss SP-202. Released in the late 90s, this quirky hardware sampler is often known for its limitations and crunchy sound. So why would anybody buy one in 2021? There's a bunch to talk about. -- Find me on Instagram:   / allmyfriendsaresynths   My blog with music and write ups: http://unexpectedbowtie.com My DIY tape label, Cow Tongue Taco Records: https://cowtonguetacorecords.bandcamp...
