Torso Electronics S-4 Sculpting Sampler Gets Major Update

Torso Electronics just dropped OS 2.0 for their S-4 Sculpting Sampler—a ground-up rewrite that supercharges your sampling workflow. Whether you’re slicing beats, mangling field recordings or building live sets, this update packs in fresh performance and modulation tools without messing with your favorite core engine.

Key highlights you need to know:

  • Global Macros: Map any parameter to eight knobs and four punch-in effect buttons for one-gesture transformations.
  • Scenes: Snapshots for full machine states, samples and parameters—128 slots per project, plus MIDI Program Change support.
  • Temp Mode: Hold temporary tweaks that revert the moment you let go—perfect for glitch drops or quick FX sweeps.
  • Disc Playback: Stream long stems, loops and field recordings straight from internal storage—only limited by your drive space.
  • Follow Modulator: An envelope follower that grabs amplitude from any track or input to drive dynamic, audio-reactive modulation.
  • Tape & Varispeed: Enhanced live-looping with adjustable recording speed.
  • Copy & Utility Boosts: Duplicate devices, tracks or scenes in a flash, plus a slick new interface and upgrades to existing modules.

All S-4 owners can grab the free OS 2.0 update now and start sculpting samples like never before. Check out the download page for details and get your S-4 up to speed:

Hi, I’m Canoy Dang. I grew up in Granada and now living in Málaga, in the south of Spain. Sound has always played a central role in my life — from early home recordings to the deeper, ongoing exploration of the modular synth world. Modular, semi-modular, and desktop synthesizers have become my main tools for expression, experimentation, and sometimes, simply for getting lost in the process.
