What sample cds do you like most?

[torres28]

I like the XXL most wanted drums,digital boy I and II ( just the hats),no kick I and II and one with the Mellotron to imitate Tangerine Dream..hehe

Yours?

[dirty_bass]

I don`t have any :cry:
I have built my sound library up, from tunes, the net, field recordings, Tv and video samples.

[Col]

i have very few, all of which are pretty shite. i really need to get my head down and program my own.

[Starfuqer]

Vienna Orchestra


90 gigs


Hanz Zimmer made the Gladiator soundtrack with it

[dan the acid man]

i dont have any either, i get free one's off the net,friends, or make my own, i need some new kick one's though, time to have a look around i think

[Mattias Fridell (emb)]

I make my own samples, but rigth now i could use some new samples so please tell me if you know of anything good.

Me too. Gonna try that Waldorf attack I think, though Steinberg don't do demo's of their products so I can't try it out before buying (unless i do the kazaa thang). I like the idea of being able to shape a drum sound. Though one thing confuses me, what makes the waldorf attack better for drums than say a V Station or a Pro 53? I mean, they're all synths, they all have oscillators, cut offs etc, can't you theoretically get pretty much the same sound from each?

Hahha, you really got him there! :D

[go|plastic]

In my experience the most useful sample CDs are the ones that don't have "TECHNO" written all over them...

[Buttman]

Liaisons Dangereuses - Liaisons Dangereuses (Teldec)

[Buttman]

Liaisons Dangereuses - Liaisons Dangereuses (Teldec)

Oh sample CD!
Liaisons Dangereuses - Liaisons Dangereuses (Hit Thing)

:lol:

[slavestudios]

the free ones on cmags like Future Music & MTM...

basic dull samples, but after a bit of a thrashin in Sound Forge, they do the job

[auditory hallucinations]

The ones I keep returning to are:

Oliver Lieb Samples - loads and loads of stuff, well worth £60. Drums, fx, pads, basses, you name it, it's got it. And top sound quality too.

Distoteque - Lots of very grimy loops, makes you feel most unclean.

But there's nothing better than sampling offa vinyl, looping it and running through a filter for some distortion.

Now that`s just not cricket.
Nobody accuses me, the 5th earl of sinjenson, of using or being an associate of house or trance samples.

I challenge you sir, to a dual.

Weapons of your choice.

I shall give you the sound thrashing you so justly deserve.

A pox on thy name and familly, you cad.

Do me the honour of turning up on time lest I need to hunt you down like the dog you are.

:lol: :lol:

[Basil Rush]

*laughs* classic. some kind of 18th century techno sound off.

[twizted]

:lol: :lol: ****ing wooden 18th centuary synths that you have to burn a coal fire to get working.

[wellso]

[duffdeal]

ueberschall 'Techno Trance Essentials' has some good drum sounds, despite the dodgy name.

[FatLoop]

[dirty_bass]

don`t by dance music sample CD`s
If you can`t make a decent beat, you don`t understand the nature of dance music.

[FatLoop]

well ive heard a few of ur tracks and u need a decent kick urself m8 to be quite honest dirty bass!!!!!! ur kicks sound like they havnt been compressed and very dull so i think u need to experiment with absaloutley everythin and not try to critisise when ur tracks need sorting themselves !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Mindful]

Nearly made me raise an eyebrow with that comment.
But it turned out, I just had a fart brewing.

[dan the acid man]

ooo so Waldorf is a synth you can make drums in,, mm sounds tasty, i have tons of samples but some sound crackly n not clean enough for my liking.

[eyes without a face]

i like to use percussion loops, especially of ethnic origin, but kick wise i recommend always making ur own or a good set of 909 samples and u cant go far wrong

[djshiva]

Adam Jay-Tools for Technocracy CD (unreleased, but i think it's gonna be put out by M Audio)

Tim Xavier sample cd (also unreleased i think...not sure)

really looking to get the Steve Stoll Locked Grooves CD...anyone heard this? comments?

[dirty_bass]

I would recommend Drumatic 2 to generate your kicks.
much better than samples

[RDR]

No kick
Trilogy
Heart of Africa
Soli music drum machines (awesome - 50+ drum machines and all their noises)
