            Sakata DMP-48 digital drum machine

The following samples have been downloaded from the net and thus not
sampled by myself. I've been in contact with the person who made them
available and he's given me permission to convert, edit and
re-distribute them as TX16W samples. There are 20 samples:

*PS. The author originally sampled 22 sounds, but as 2 of these were
identical (only with an added 'accent' setting) I chose not to include them.

Following is the text file that came with the file
(together with the .WAV samples which were done using a Soundblaster 16.)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The file dpm48.zip should contain 22 .wav samples of the Sakata DPM-48
drum machine, along with this file.  I sampled all of these at 44.1kHz,
16 bits.  If you have problems unzipping or if the samples are bad
(note i said bad not cheezy!) please let me know.

bit-o-background:  The Sakata DPM-48 is a digital drum machine circa 83
i'd guess.  The interface is archaic & a pain.  It syncs to Roland din
sync, alternatively its got trigger ins too (i haven't tried these yet).
The DPM-48 has individual outs (in groups anyway, common bass out, common
snare out etc), mono out & a stereo out.  The memory can hold 48 patterns
of up to 32 steps + 3 songs.
