Analog RYTM Single Cycle Waveforms Pack

Posted in: Free Sounds, Hardware Synthesizers, Music Technology|Tags: Analog Rytm, Analog RYTM Bass Synth, Analog RYTM Single Cycle Waveforms Pack, Elektron, free download, free samples, Free Sounds, single cycle waveforms|September 29, 20141 Comment

SB-SIX has shared a very cool Analog RYTM Single Cycle Waveforms Pack.  If you load the single cycle waveforms into your Analog RYTM you can create deep synth textures (by looping the samples).  Then mix and match the single cycle tones with the Analog RYTM’s synthesis section.  Check out the demo video from SB-SIX here:

This is a demo using single cycle waveforms recorded from analog and digital gear, ready to use in other devices, like the elektron analog rytm demoed here, but can also be loaded in the elektron octatrack or other devices/applications supporting single cycle waveforms. Convert your analog rytm into a cool bass synth with these waves. All waves are 16bit 44.1khz.

Download the free Analog RYTM Single Cycle Waveforms Pack here:

The SFZ Instrument was recorded from the first ever preset he made for a Yamaha TX81Z.  Just loaded it up into Plogue sforzando and it’s classic FM Bass sound. Perfect for those with a soft spot for FM Bass!

The JB1STBass download includes 10 samples in 16bit 44.1k sample format.  Roughly 5.5 MB decompressed.

Bass City – Free Synth Bass Samples!

Proudly presenting Bass City – A Free Synth Bass Sample Library by 99 Sounds and PatchArena. Bass City is a free collection of vintage bass synthesizer samples, availible in Kontakt .NKI and .sfz Sforzando format. Designed for any type of electronic music production. EDM, old school, Electro, House, Dub, Techno, you name it.

Bass City

This sample pack started as a collaboration between 99 Sounds and PatchArena. We started by sampling a few bass sounds from our favorite vintage synthesizers. We kept on sampling more and more custom bass patches. It started with our favorite raw FM Bass sounds from the one and only TX81Z 4 op FM rack mount synth. Then sampling excellent juicy tones of the Korg Poly800 and EX800. The stacking oscillators of the 800 series going thru the analog filters sound perfectly sweet. The built in chorus on these two units is absolutely superb. After months sampling and playing these bass instruments we selected our favorites and combined them into Bass City.

Special thanks to Tomislav Zlatic from 99 Sounds for all of his effort on this collection. The cover art and the custom NKI programming is top notch. You should check out some of the other quality sample collections being curated by Tomislav here:

Chipcrushed Sample Chains For The Elektron Octatrack

Posted in: Hardware Synthesizers, Virtual Effects|Tags: 16 Slice Aligned Samples, Bleeps & Bloops, Chipcrusher, Chipsounds, Chiptunes, Elektron, elektron octatrack, free download, free samples, How to use Octatrack Sample Chains, octatrack, Plogue, Sample Chains for the Elektron Octatrack|December 19, 20131 Comment

Here are 6 free Sample Chains for the Elektron Octatrack:

chipcrusher 1

Using Generated Game/Chip Sound Samples, they were processed with Plogue Chipcrusher.

Assembled into 16 slice sample chains for the Elektron Octatrack, Enjoy!

These sample chains have been aligned so that they are evenly spaced and ready for importing and auto Slicing via the Octatrack’s Audio Editor. Each sample contains 16 notes, so you’ll want to use the 16 Slice Grid.

6 Free Synth Bass Sample Chains for The Elektron Octatrack

Posted in: Hardware Synthesizers|Tags: Chromatic Synth Bass Samples, Elektron, free download, free samples, How to use Octatrack Sample Chains, octatrack, Sample Chains for the Elektron Octatrack, Synth Bass for Elektron Octatrack|October 25, 2013No Comments

slices chains waveform

I wanted to share some bass sample chains for the Octatrack.

Grab them here:

Octatrack Chromatic Synth Bass Sample Chains

File Stats:

  •  6 Stereo Synth Bass Sample Chains aligned and spaced for 16 Slice Grid
  •  44.1k, 16bit
  •  101MB compressed, 120 uncompressed
  • pdf with instructions on how to setup the Sample Chains included

These sample chains contain chromatically sampled bass instruments starting from c2 to d#3 (MIDI 36-51).  The sample chains have been aligned so that they are evenly spaced and ready for importing and auto Slicing via the Octatrack’s Audio Editor.  Each sample contains 16 notes, so you’ll want to use the 16 Slice Grid. 

To Use These Sample Chains:

Load the samples into your static sample pool slots.
Use the Octatrack’s Audio Editor to Create a 16 Slice Grid on each of the loaded sample chains.

Slice Audio Editor

16 Slice Grid

When you create the Slice Grid select “NO” when it asks to “Align Markers to Zero-Crosses”.  The Slice Grid is already evenly spaced and setup.

align markers NO

Enable “SLIC” (SLICES MODE) in your Playback Setup for the tracks you wish to use these samples on.

Track Slice On

Now your Trigs should eliminate green, each trig 1-16 will trigger slices 1-16 accordingly.

You are all set to play, tweak, and Plock the Chromatic Bass Sample Chains. 

track trigs

Fun experimenting try the following:

– Adjust the PITCH on -/+ 12 to shift the Slices down and up an octave to achieve more range.
– If you’ve loaded and Sliced all of the bass sample chains into your static sample pool you can use the Static Slot Lock on Trigs to change bass sounds per Trig.  This allows you to Plock different Bass Sound onto your pattern!

If you find these useful and have any suggestions for improvements please send me feedback.  I’m planning on making more advanced sample chains that use chromatic sampled instruments in the future.

Cheers!

Add More Space to Your Music! – No Really

What kind of sounds are out in space?  Intriguing radio waves, ghostly planetary plasma waves, and more.  🙂

NASA spacecraft has recorded some of these sounds and has made them available on their website.  Maybe the perfect compliment for your next Carl Sagan AutoTune Remix.  😛

NASA Space Sounds Page
Soaring to the depths of our universe, gallant spacecraft roam the cosmos, snapping images of celestial wonders. Some spacecraft have instruments capable of capturing radio emissions. When scientists convert these to sound waves, the results are eerie to hear… We’ve put together a compilation of elusive “sounds” of howling planets and whistling helium that is sure to make your skin crawl.
