Another long one! In part 6, I jump from Xsynth to Specimen, a simple sampler, which is ideal for when you want to take a simple sound and quickly transform it in to a playable instrument. Specimen does much more than just playing samples, though — it can sculpt and shape them with envelopes, filters, and LFOs, just like you’d find in Xsynth.
Hi-res Ogg Theora version is here, or watch the Youtube version after the jump!

Geally great, I think I want to play with this!
It’s a lot of fun
Just having such a simple sampler around for when you want one is great, but having all of those filtering and modulation options makes it very flexible.
