    To all future junglists, I think in the future 20+ years ahead, you will look back at an Amigo tune Era. it can do some dope shizzle!
  • @qtrax100
    Amigo has captured the essence of amiga sample editing/playback and put it on steriods.
  • @sparkidee
    I use Amigo at 12bit sounds crunchy like the old Amiga sound, I also have Akaizer to add other fx for even more crunch, time stretch so its nearly dead on.
  • @samsam2235
    Didn't expect such a big difference soundwise. WinUAE e.g. is so good at emulating the Paula sound that I couldn't tell the difference (compared to my 500). So obviously it can be done better.

    The method I use to automate parameters is right clicking on a particular parameter on a device/effect etc. Then the current value that parameter is set to will populate the column in a track. I do it this way as I find the automation graphic editor very fiddly, the shapes I draw always get messed up somehow and I have to go back over them quite often to make corrections. Regarding the plugin sound, I think it's great - not as crunchy as an Amiga but sounds closer to the S3200.

    I loved Trackers, but couldn't get to grips with making music. However, to keep connected to the scene, I started putting out PD samples under the name "Hash Cake 77." . I was using an Aura sampling cartridge. I can't remember how it happened, but I ended up doing official samples for Octamed. Didn't last long as by the late 90s, folks were migrating to PC. I still love watching anything tracker or octamed related
  • @ricochetpig
    Nice one! Was waiting for this. Thought it was only a matter of time before you did a vid on Amigo…
  • @paullawson8610
    For the money it ain't bad I paid a tenner for it but I watched your video about Tal sampler and to me that was better
  • @ozzy3ml
    The Amiga version sounds more driven to me, you can hear the snare tails are louder. Maybe some additional clipping could remedy it to an extent. But the Amiga is also more tonal / midrangey. Interesting. For some applications the flatter sound of Amigo may actually work better in the mix. Like if you’re layering a break that isn’t your main break
  • @garrybynon6080
    grabbed this a few weeks back, loads of fun and now its down to the artists to get creative with it, lots of potential
  • @kodex4490
    i got this...proper cheap..proper fun to use.well simple...my wish is that the devs will up the bitrate in the future.
  • @pocketrealitty
    It’s good enough to capture the essence. If the music is good enough, people aren’t gonna care what the breaks were sampled with, as long as it captures that magic from the 90’s.
  • @alealex7807
    Might not sound exactly the same but it's a lot of fun! For those that are in need of an Amiga and can't afford it should be really nice. A little tweak here and there and you can make it bangin for sure!
  • original amiga sounds way bigger from the off. I still like amigo plug tho - i use it
  • @yamyite
    Bizzy would love to see you do a video on Koala sampler. I’ve got my head round it a bit more and it’s really helped me understanding production a bit more, and it’s super accessible using just a phone and headphones if that’s all you’ve got. BUT from a man of your calibre I’d be interested on your thoughts 🫡
  • @Reg-Edit
    Having come from that era, I think it’s really cool 💪🏻 Obviously you’re soundcard is going to make a difference Still got the original samples 😂
  • @-ion
    Thanks for the comparison! It would be interesting if you could make a high-quality recording of the Amiga's impulse response, and then use that with a convolver plugin following the Amigo. The simplest way to capture the IR would probably to be to play an audio file which contains a peak which is one sample in length at the highest pitch on the Amiga. If the result is useful, you could perhaps consider publishing the IR for others to use as well.
  • @Snazzytraxx
    101 for more like this yo!!! big ups Bizzy
  • @maxisproducer
