Does anyone know of any low resource, low feature, drum samplers that have a sample browser inside them? Battery etc. use up a lot of CPU/RAM and I don't use any of the features.

What are you running a Pentium 133mhz with 16 megs of ram? The extra features in Battery, even if you don't use them, aren't going to kill you. Or better yet, learn to take advantage of its extra features.

Battery always seem to weaken the sample, also the samples seem to not be playing as they are heard. out of sync etc.

I also want a simple sampler, so simple it only plays the sound, totally raw as it is imported.

I think you got a bad rip buddy.

Battery uses up almost no resources whatsoever on my machine. And I really mean none. Like the CPU meter doesn't go up to 1% with just battery running. I can't imagine anything out there being any more efficient for drums. And as for memory usage, that's determined entirely by the samples you're loading - the plugin itself uses virtually no overhead.

I often have 8 or more seperate batterys loaded at once and the CPU use really is neglible....
Battery is seriously impressive and works very well.
Coming from me, who has a bank of Akai samplers and has been brought up that way, that is praise indeed.

Battery 1 and 2 were great for me, but 3 seems "slow". I only really upgraded so I could get the sample browser, but its a pretty crap one at that.
