808

[kcearl]

yup another one 

Ive tried to make this one a bit different....theres 96 samples used, some ive resampled through TNC AMP73 preamps, some have  EQing in the preamp, some have been put through nebula and had tape saturation, some detuning, changed velocities...so no two samples are the same, but only very small changes to make it feel more like an analogue machine, even some noise....

all the samples are dry, I havent added any FX in Spark either...its not perfect but I think its a little better than just have one stagnant sample


lemme know what you think

Thank you. I can't wait to get home and go ape with this kit.

Lemme know what you think...a couple of the kick samples are a little clicky, prolly wont matter much in a mix but i may go back and replace them...also the rim and rim shot samples are really similar at the expense of losing the mid conga...so i may sort that out next week...will post when its updated

o0o0o nice! i saw you talking about this on gs, and was wondering if you'd share it! thanks!!

[kcearl]

I'll share everything Im allowed to

Im such an amatuer but hopefully itll encourage others to stick some stuff up like TerryM inspired me

I think spark could have a great future with users building there own suff instead of buying kits half full of FX and dubstep wobbles

Next a 909 then im going to take some time and do a proper round robin Vermona kit....elektron arent sending back my MD yet...theyve had it for two months

Finally heard the 808 tape. Pretty good kit. If I experience and clocks I usually tweak the attack and decay and I'm usually satisfied. The kick and snares were done well. The rim shot was also excellent. Nice job on the pearl kit by the way.

arturia should pay you for these excellent kits

(well not really lol, but they ARE excellent. perhaps a free tshirt is in order )

[kcearl]

Great guys...im still learning...theres too much variation in the hits i think, but its still usable

Im working on a round robin vermona kit this week thats far more subtle....so each sample is going through the same chain rather than this where some went through different chains

When i get home, eventually, i have the 808 kit in an R8, best clap sample out there...ill add it to an updated kit

[mpc60champ]

what do you like most about the r8? sequencer? sound?

[kcearl]

Definitely the sound of the electronic and dance cards, the samples are pobably the best 808, 909 samples ive heard...in fact those two expansion cards cost more than the unit
