Animal Collective uses various SP family samplers a lot.

"A lot of the size of the percussion sounds is because there’s a close mic and maybe two room mics on one instrument overdubbed eight times, so you might have 24 tracks representing that part.” :idea:

They've got what looks like an MPC 2000, too, along with all the SP's.
