The ISLA INSTRUMENTS S2400 honors the unmistakable sound of the American role model, an instrument that has had a lasting impact on the musical landscape, especially in hip-hop. Big names such as Cypress Hill, Public Enemy, the Beastie Boys and Pete Rock have appreciated its unique sound characteristics and intuitive sequencer. In the late 80s, the limited memory space posed a significant challenge and cost factor for hardware samplers, limiting the original device to a maximum of 10 seconds of sampling time. The modern replica from Isla Instruments, the S2400, overcomes these limitations. Without the financial limitations of yesteryear, it offers users significantly extended possibilities with several minutes of sampling time. This freedom opens up unimagined creative horizons to explore and reinterpret sonic traditions with modern technology.
The ISLA INSTRUMENTS S2400 is a state-of-the-art desktop sampler and sequencer that pays homage to a legendary American model. Its design combines tradition with innovation by using robust materials such as aluminium for the side panels and knob, embedded in a sturdy metal housing. The high-contrast OLED display with a resolution of 128x64 pixels not only promises a clear display of the essential parameters but also ensures excellent clarity even in dark environments, such as live situations.
Creating patterns on the S2400 is surprisingly simple and intuitive. Users can quickly set the desired tempo and number of bars, select and assign samples, and start creating patterns in no time at all. The developed grooves can then be refined using a resonant digital filter, adjusting the pitch of the samples or experimenting with an envelope for the volume curve to achieve the perfect sound.
Particularly noteworthy is the"Classic Mode" of the S2400, which allows samples to be recorded and played back in the nostalgic quality of 12 bit and 26 kHz. This function gives the sounds the characteristic charm of the 80s and 90s, which still plays a central role in many music genres. For users who prefer a more modern sound quality, the S2400 also offers a"HiFi mode" that works with 16 bit and 48 kHz and thus meets the requirements of contemporary productions.
All in all, the ISLA INSTRUMENTS S2400 impressively combines the best of two worlds: the unmistakable sound and flair of days gone by with the precision and flexibility of modern sampling technology. This makes it not only an instrument that honors its roots, but also a powerful addition to any
