Sample CD
This was the very first sample CD I bought. In 1991 or 1992, when this disc came out, sample CDs were just starting out, replacing the huge business of synthesizer sounds sold on RAM cards that had been popular the years before (remember the huge market of third-party sounds for the Yamaha DX7, Roland D-50, and Korg M1?).
The Datafile series was very popular because it was very versatile. It offered a one-stop solution for the early 90s samplist. Sounds drafted from the Datafile One were abundantly used in many hits of the day.
