QUOTE (ryosode @ Dec 5 2002, 13:49) As for one shot samples. I guess you can go to google and search for 'sample wav download' or something like that. If you can't find one shot sample that you like, get a whole drum pattern that you like and cut it into one shot pieces. Any wave form editor should be able to do this... Yeah...I've been doing that for years...but the quality (for single hits on the web) isn't that good. I figure I may start using VST drum machine programs and just make loops to chop single hits from. I was just being lazy. Also, I have a few old stand alone drum machine programs that I may just sample from. I was just wondering what others are doing.

If you're absolutely set on 24-bit samples, this may not be responsive to your exact needs, but maybe others will benefit from it: there is an absolute wealth of samples available for Reason in Soundfonts, thousands of which are freely available on the web. One of the best sources is here: http://www.thesoundsite.net/You can download them uncompressed, which sidesteps the .sfark issue. (BTW, there is now a beta version of an .sfark extractor available for OS X only, but it only handles files compressed with sFark 2.0 or later, and many of the compressed Soundfonts out there were done with sfark 1.x, so it's best to get uncompressed one.) There's plenty o' cheese, but there are also some excellent Soundfonts with excellent samples in them. In Reason, you can load an entire Soundfont into an NN-XT, or use the samples from the Soundfont in Redrum or any of the other sample-using modules. There are some great-sounding acoustic drum kits and sounds on that site.

Can you tell me which ones on this site are good...especially acoustic drums...thanks.

QUOTE (taco6 @ Dec 11 2002, 23:39) Can you tell me which ones on this site are good...especially acoustic drums...thanks. Of course I can't, taco6, because tastes in sounds are as individual as tastes in Hawaiian print shirts. "Good" also depends entirely on what kind of sound you're looking for, and for what kind of music. If you go to the "A thru E" page of that site and scroll down to the files that conveniently start "Drums..." you'll find one hell of a lot of soundfonts of drum kits, snares collections, kick collections, cymbal collections, hihat collections.... You name it! You might find some full kits you like, or you might want to build your own sets from individual samples within several of those soundfonts. (In Reason, you can load any individual sample from any Soundfont into Redrum, NN-19, or the NN-XT; In fact in Redrum and the NN-19 you can *only* load samples from the soundfonts; only the NN-XT allows you to load entire soundfonts.) I certainly haven't downloaded all of the drum soundfonts on that site. I suggest, based on what you've said, that you look for soundfonts that have the words "acoustic," "real," "clean," and "dry" in their names. Start there and download all of those and try them out and see what you like and don't like. Hell, they're free! What's it going to cost you to try them out yourself and see if they fit your needs? Look at the names of the soundfonts and the relative sizes; those can all give you clues to what might be most likely to suit your needs. But you can always go back to the well anytime and try others. Ultimately, though, it's your music, and only you know that sound you want. It's your decision to make, and yours alone. Music is a lonely calling. Good luck with it!
