samples

[Tony P]

anyone know any good places to get sample from.

 

or where do you get your sample from for making parts of tunes etc.

 

does anyone actually take samples from vinyl as i've got loads i could use, but would the sounds quality be good enough.

 

as you can tell i know fook all about this, but i'm sure i'll have fun learning

 

(expect loads of stupid/obvious questions over the next few months guys )

I've downloaded a few from here Sampleswap

 

and radio 1 have a sample bank here

 

I'm sure there are better places though, but havent found them yet...

we got soul seek mark, but wary about using it, last time tony was on there we got a virus so rather wait til I get my norton disc back of my dad, before he uses that

if u want the samples that u have on vinyl i would try to find the original sample as u lose sound quality when its recorded, and unless u have the best needle you can have then it probably isn't worth it

 

having said that, do use it in the mean time until u can find the original

if you download only .wav .mp3 .mp2. .aff .rns .fls (any audio formats) you'll be alright, i too refrain from downloading samples packs which are compressed as zip files and things

[Lisa]

[Tony P]

[Mark]
