Additonally, there are four directories of samples available
for optional download. In addition to the famous ST-01 and
ST-02 sample packs, I included a handful of my favorite
samples from all the other ST-XX sample packs, found in the
ST-FV directory. All ST-XX samples have been converted to WAV.
Finally, I included a handful of samples recorded on my own
Amiga 500 with my Arduinosound Turbo sampler module (available
at https://github.com/astriiddev/Arduinosound-Turbo for
building). There are found in ST-ASTRX; some kept in their
original IFF format, some coverted to BRR with my SBC700
Super BRR Converter program (still in development). WAV,
IFF, and BRR are all supported by Ami Sampler.
To download the complete ST-XX sample packs in their original
format, go to:
