In addition, ROMplers combine a synthesizer with the samples to generate added realism to the sampled sounds.
ROMplers have been widely used in music production since the 1990s, and many popular keyboard workstations and software synthesizers are based on this technology.Ī ROMpler (AKA a sample playback synthesizer) is an electronic musical instrument that uses pre-recorded audio samples of real instruments stored in read-only memory (ROM) to create sounds.
