Can someone please tell me how I can get the SR-202 sampler? I am in desparate need of this software. Is it possible for someone to send this to me...

it comes every month with a COmputerMusic magazine.
I believe for someone to send it to you w/o purchasing it would violate the distrubution agreement, but someone might be able to purchase a mag for you:

If they've bought one every month for the last 3 months, then they could just ship send you a cd. Or you could order one.

Are they available near you?

Thanks for responding so quickly. Where could I find that magazine at?

but I ask myself...

can I give him as a present the magazine, right? then why not the plugin?

Well, it depends where you are.
Here in the US, it can be found at most major magazine places:
Borders,
barnes&Noble
Tower records/books

In Canada, same lot as above,
Chapters

on line @

In the US, the mag is imported and costs ~15$
Every month included free are;
sr-202
ds-404 - sampler made by Muon
cm505 - drum synth made by LinPLug
cm303 - 303 bassline by Muon
OhmmyGod - filter by Ohmboyz
CM101 -subtractive/analogue synth,
+ a few demos.

Worth buying at least once.

Depends what country you are in,but a large book store like chapters , Indigo or a specialty magazine shop/newstand

You can give him the plugin with the magazine, I believe. The only situation not permitted is to give the plug to him, say through e-mail, but keep the disk and the mag for yourself.

If you wanted to just send him the disk, you could

ah ok ourobouros, all's clear now.

I do have some repeated numbers of the mag (since I started buying them in English but then changed to Spanish) but i doubt it will be cheaper for u, probably better to buy it yourself I guess.

Is there a certain issue that I need to get or is the sampler on the disc with every issue?

Thanks I just read your last post

I think it's in all issues but I'm not sure now that you mention it...but I'd say in all...

It's part of the CM studio on every CD (or DVD with the last 2 issues). You also get CM-101 (va monosynth), CM-303 (guess what? a 303 emulator...), DS-404 (sampler), CM-505 (drumsynth written by linplug), OhMyGod (a combfilter/distortion effect) and few more things I can't be arsed to check!

There all quite good, definately worth the price of the magazine.

yes definitely worth. OhMyGod is a very very interesting free filter.

Sr-202 is a drum machine.

I think you mean DS-404

I thought the same, but it seems some people call it a 'drum sampler'. Whatever, the given information applies both to SR-202 and DS-404.
