1,000 Audio Samples

I finally completed /made 1,000 audio samples. Took forever. I’m kind of jazzed and feel like cranking out more, lol. …but i’ll smartly take a break. The most time consuming samples to make were the drum samples. A lot of tweaking takes place when making one-shots. Bass sounds were the easiest.

All of the first 1,000 samples are free.

I’m planning on making more samples but those will be for a price. I tried to run the website and have it pay for itself with advertising and it does pay for itself but the money it makes doesn’t justify the time i put in. So… it’s green downloads from now on.

Instrument Samples

So i finally made 100 short instrument samples (WAV) that can be loaded into any DAW via it’s sampler (or piano roll/grid) so people can make their own instrument loops. It took a while to collect/record and edit them. They are ok. Like any pack of samples there are some clunkers, lol. Everyone has their own ears. I tried to make a sample for every instrument i could think of off of the top of my head. They’re all free to download.

Free Loops

Download 250 free loops for music production. All have an electronic music tinge to them because that’s the kind of music i make. Some should crossover though.

go here for loops.

I’m working on making 100 instrument samples. I should be done within the month of April.

100 Bass Sounds

While most watched the Super Bowl i recorded/edited 40 bass sounds and added them to my others so now there are 100 bass sounds for music production at audioskull. (all free)

Audio Production

I wish as a kid i knew then what i know now about audio recording. My life would be way different. I wish i had the interest in audio production and sounds like i do now. Time is the killer of all dreams. Time and money i guess. At the end/start of each year i always have regrets about life and past choices i’ve made. I also see each new year as a fresh start to follow whatever dream i choose. Happy 2009 to me. Good luck.

40 Extra Sample Packs

There are 250 extra samples in 40 packs now in weekly rotation for music production at Audioskull. All different types of audio samples and noises like pianos, blips and beeps. I’m going to make beat loop sample packs next. It would be great if i had them all made before 2009, lol.

50 Bass Samples

I recorded and edited 50 bass samples. I thought about making 100 but burnt out half way through. These are bass one-shots or bass stabs… whatever you want to call them. Good for making basslines if you load them into a piano roll or beefing up drum beats.

300 Drum Samples

So i finished a section of my site with 300 drum samples (free). This weekend i will have to work on the 2 other sections of audio samples i have planned. After that i might make a drum loops section but i’m kind of leaning away from that because i already bought a new domain name for a full site like that. Oh, i also have to build my 500 instrument loops section. Damn, i forgot all about that. Good thing i have this blog to make me remember such things.

Weird Noise

I kept hearing some weird noise and for some reason i though it was a mouse or rat… but i found out it was only the rain from outside, lol. It reminded me of the time i recorded a thunderstorm. I got some big booms of thunder but the files where too big. I didn’t want to upload them for download and waste the data-transfer, lol. That was back in 2006.

the Smurfs

I’ve been thinking about using Smurf samples in a mash up song i’ve been planning for along time. I’ve never made a proper mashup before. I’m lazy. Yawn.

I should checkout gybo for new mashups to listen to.
