Samples From Mars SYS100M From Mars MULTiFORMAT | 1.44 Gb

For the last few decades, the System-100M has been a quiet pillar in many of your favorite electronic jams. From Yazoo/Erasure to Throbbing Gristle and the Human League, it's provided countless textures, sequences, blips and bass, but has never fully got the recognition it deserves. This epic modular synth has somehow fallen beneath the sonic cracks of the more iconic synths (Moogs, Arps and other Rolands from the same era) that we’ve come to know and love.

Perhaps this is because the System-100M lies in a no-man’s-land - It’s not the fattest or most abstract or most (insert synth hyperbole here) but it is certainly not thin or conventional sounding in any way shape or form. In fact, the brilliance of this instrument is that its sounds and textures seem to fill the gaps between most electronic instruments. Because of this, these instruments and loops are unlike anything else on our site - they are certainly on the more experimental side of things but completely useable at the same time. They feature some of our most complex and interesting modulations to date - with experimental FX, wild leads, juicy Roland bass, acidic squelch, disastrous percussion, general mayhem.

The architecture of the System-100M lends itself immediately to experimental sample design. It has a very unique filter that always sounds like it has a little dirt running throughs its circuits, and 6 modulation inputs allow you to further carve your sound. Because the synth is capable of so many different flavors on its own, we decided to keep external processing to a minimum, in favor of pushing the synth's own modulation capacity. In essence, we didn't want anything to cover up the vibe of these killer 70’s Roland filters.
