I recently got my hands on a Casio VL-1. It's classic mini keyboard from 1979 that was featured in the song Da Da Da by Trio. Of course, part of my experiments with this keyboard involved running it through a bunch of outboard pedals. The result is this sample library which contains a bunch of interesting pad and key sounds. Have fun!

(You'll note that I've just included two pedals in the cover photo because it looked nicer–I actually used about five or six different pedals in total. The bulk of the work was done by my trusty Microcosm.)

As always, you should be able to download the Patreon sample library directly through the app. If, for some reason that's not working, try using this Dropbox link instead: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/zbqdi0966ndc03l5tzdgf/VL-1__Friends_Decent_Sampler-1.0.3.zip?rlkey=b7zfk7wkkvcebjd6seez6bqfl&dl=0

Please do not distribute these sample libraries outside of the Patreon as they are for patrons only. Thanks!

Head's up - I'm getting an error on a few of the presets after importing. E.g. when I browse for the dsbundle file (220.5mb), it loads fine (so, probably not corrupt) and opt to install it in my library, on the first preset, I see: *ERRORS WERE ENCOUNTERED* Depending on the size of the sample library, loading may take a while. Sample Library 1 Edited_0003.wav: ERROR Sample Library 1 Edited_0002.wav: ERROR Sample Library 1 Edited_0005.wav: ERROR Sample Library 1 Edited_0004.wav: ERROR Sample Library 1 Edited_0001.wav: ERROR --- I have logging enabled. Here's the logs (identifying parts of the cannonical url removed) -- it looks like there's some missing samples? The ones that do load sound extra fantastic as always :] 2024-05-04: Loading preset from URL:file:///Volumes/[REDACTED]/DecentSampler/VL-1%20%26%20Friends.dsbundle/VL-1%20and%20Friends%20-%20001%20-%20Strings.dspreset 2024-05-04: The canonical URL for this preset is:file:///Users/[REDACTED]/Downloads/VL-1%20%26%20Friends%20%5BDecent%20Sampler%5D/VL-1%20%26%20Friends.dsbundle 2024-05-04: Unloading the old preset 2024-05-04: sampleLibraryLoadingBegins calls showModal on the DSSampleLoadingModal 2024-05-04: Beginning sample load process. 2024-05-04: Initial sampling loading complete. 2024-05-04: At the end of verifyPreset(), there were still 5 samples missing.

Thanks for the heads up! Looks like some samples didn't get packed up for some reason.

Thanks! (Edit: confirmed everything looks good)

* Love the low-end on #3. A slightly modified #10 will probably get used in something soon. * Heh, patch #15, is a whole thing onto itself - hold down F#2, there's your Indie sidescroller soundtrack half in the bag. Oh, you beat the level boss and acquired a piece of the (insert-macguffin-here)? C#5. * #2 sounds familiar. I wonder if there's a Microcosm setting on it that's giving similar vibes to previous lib (I own a Microcosm myself, but haven't had the time to sit down with it to really know)

Hey, thank you for the awesome libraries! I have a question tho... How am I supposed to link my Patreon account with a Decent Sampler account to have the downloads available? All of the libraries only show me the Buy button. Thanks! PS: my account uses the same email as on Patreon
