sampler

An electronic musical instrument that plays back and records sounds so that they can be played using a keyboard or a sequencer. Not to be confused with a synthesizer or ROMpler

A sampler is never going to sound as good as the real instrument.

CPM

Cost per thousand. M=1000 in Roman numerals. Generally used to quote advertising prices on the internet on how many ad impressions you can buy for a certain amount of money.

The CPM on Yahoo is a hell of a lot more than you can afford!

ROMpler

An electronic music device that can only play back recordings of sounds using a keyboard or a sequencer. Not to be confused with synthesizer or sampler.

Those cheap Yamaha PSR keyboards you see in Best Buy are only ROMplers.
