BUY EKO RITMO SAMPLE SET
The Ritmo 20 sounds pretty cool and dynamics but it features no MIDI and I do personally got crazy to find out a SYNC option... besides are you tired of static grandpa Chacha and Bajont patterns ?
The SOLUTION: we do sampled the Italo box with the mighty AKAI MPC60 12 bits converters.
What's inside the RITMO SOUNDPACK:
- 11X .wav files sampled by RME converters
- 11X .SND raw files original MPC60 - 12 bits at 40000 Hz (mapped for MPC60 OS 3.01 and MPC3000)
- 11X .WAV files digitally converted from MPC60 to 44,1 Hz at 24 bits
-
45X .WAV files processed by OTO biscuit crusher.
YES! we do give you original MPC60 RAW samples at 12bits, so you can convert them as you wish or import them to other samplers. HEAR SOME DEMOS BELOW.

Review
OK: -sounds pretty good and punchy -
quite rare
NOT : - limited edit -no sync
"The poor's man Korg Kr55 made in Italy. Sounds very well and punchy, too bad there is no sync option and patterns are pretty cheesy! "
