I got two friends who've I've known since the early 90's who both used and made beats on the ASR-10 and believe me, when I was making beats on my crappy JS-30 I use to slow EVERY sample down to almost it was nothing but muddy earthquake samples but when one of them showed me how he could time stretch the sample without making it sound all long and drawn out I was floored and realized how so many producers were making beats with sample in the same key as the record but slowed down up sped up.

I wish I had it but when he showed me how to work it, it was a headache to learn and that shit was too big to tote around too, but damn his filtered basslines were so smooth, when I got my MPC I was pissed that filtering with it was not even close to the ASR-10.

Anyway to make a long story short, Havoc was killing it with the beats thanks to his ASR-10.
