I love what the team at Audio Genetics Lab are doing, I fully support their research and can’t wait to see what they do next.

The full version of KONTAKT is required for these. http://audiogeneticslab.com/

This week I’ve got a set of samples of bowed cymbals. I LOVE the sound of bowed cymbals, it’s one of those classic sounds that instantly evokes some kind of feeling, suspense, fear, etc.

If you create music for film, no doubt you’ve used bowed cymbals in your scores. Essential sounds for Horror, Suspense, Action and Adventure films.

The sound is created by dragging or pushing a violin bow across the edge of a cymbal. There are 2 different cymbals (china & crash) recorded with a spaced pair of Audio Technica AT3035 into a Presonus Firestudio Project audio interface. No processing has been done except fade ins and out.

Go nuts with them, pitch shift, time stretching, layer with drones (like my Household Drones set), and reverb, these are begging for some ambiance.

I think these turned out really well, I’d love to hear what you guys can do with them.

This pack contains 9 samples. 16 bit 44.1kHz Stereo Wave files.

There are over a dozen free sample packs in various electronic musical styles.

This is just a taste of the Sample Magic catalog. Their sample collections get great reviews from Music production publications like Sound On Sound, Remix, Computer Music, and Music Tech.

I’m sure you’ll find a use for them in your productions.

This time I’m sharing some more samples of one of my circuitbent toys. This is a V-Tech Talking First Words toy, I modified it with a 1/4″ output jack and pitch control. I’ve included the 18 original sounds and 24 of twisting the pitch knob, I’ll post the rest of the set (54 more) another time.

This week I’ve got a bunch of samples of smacking a pot lid. Might not sound too interesting, but check out my examples below to see if they’re something useful for your productions. I think they’re pretty useful for a sort of tribal percussion feel.

There are 13 wave files, mono, 16 bit, 44.1kHz. DOWNLOAD HERE

A quick example of the sounds, just barely scratching the surface of what you can do is below. These examples are just dropping all the samples into the FL Studio step sequencer and drawing a random pattern

Example 1

Example 2

I’d love to hear what you can do with them.

This time I’m digging into the archives. What I’ve got this week is sounds from my circuit bent Speak & Math, from a few years ago. These are taken straight from my Toys Breaking library, if you like glitchy weird samples check that out.

There are 89 wave files, mono, 16 bit, 44.1kHz. DOWNLOAD HERE
