The BOSS SP-303 Dr. Sample offers DJs and musicians a compact, portable phrase sampler with CD-quality sound, 8-note polyphony, 26 onboard effects and a realtime pattern sequencer. Definitely a step up from the SP-202, with full 44.1 kHz sampling, double the polyphony and much greater sampling memory and effects processing, but still just as compact and easy to use.

Use the SP-303 to sample sounds and loops or grooves (the highest sample time is about 200 min. with a 64MB SmartMedia Card and a sample rate of 11 khz). Then trigger up to 8 mono samples at once. Create songs from your loops and phrases (up to 99 measures). There are 26 effects like reverb, flanger, delay Voice Transformer, distortion, Slicer, Isolator, Lo-Fi, and Vinyl Simulator plus filter Cutoff and Resonance. The Resample feature allows you to make new samples of your sounds with the effects you've applied.

The SP-303 is an inexpensive alternative to more expensive samplers in a compact package perfectly suited for DJs and live on-stage performers. Plenty of quality specs without too many bells & whistles to get you bogged down.

great machine.
the sp-202 also got battery power (which i would like also in this model),
but for me this is not a real problem.
cool for FX processing live and the lo fi sound is so dirty... love it!
very easy to learn and use.

My first sampler, have some real fond memories of this thing. Control over the blend of the pitch shifter allows you to make complex choir-like sounds from simple loops. However, the internal memory is PAINFULLY slow to read/write to, to the point where I eventually gave up on using it, meaning I could only work with 16 samples live - far too few. I sold it and got a Zoom ST224, which has a lo-fi sound and crappy effects, but a much more sensible memory/patch system, far more features and even stereo 1/4" outputs - how refreshing. Does Boss/Roland really think that only DJs use these things??
