Alright here’s a question: how many of you use the stock samples on an app or device?
I always used to immediately clear out the factory samples and bring in my own library (one-shots from Samples From Mars, OneUp Loops, and BlankFor.ms; drum loops from OneUp Loops and Splice; chromatic samples from Lullatone and BlankFor.ms; melodic loops from my own guitar and synths). But lately I’ve been thinking, why not keep the factory one-shots? That way I get more of each system’s “character” in addition to its workflow.
So far I’ve been very impressed with Koala’s library, which is a recent addition and actually started me down this line of thinking. Drambo’s samples feel a little too generic, and I’ve already built about 2 dozen multi-sampled instruments out of my curated library, so I’ll exclude that one from the experiment.
I used a web editor to strip the sounds I don’t like out of the Electribe SX-1’s factory library; dropped it from 20MB down to 6.5, which leaves a lot of room to record new samples directly in. I will be restoring that as soon as my Smart Media reader arrives.
I always felt like using factory content was lame and the absolute least you had to do is curate your own sample sets, but I’m having a change of heart and I’m curious where the rest of you stand.
For me, it all depends on the environment I'm using. In Gadget, I can't be arsed to load all of my drum samples into its system as the menu diving is unintuitive, and the drum samples within Gadget's gadgets are serviceable enough for EDM production. NS2 is the opposite, where I prefer using my "Sounds of KSHMR" packs as well as "The Lofi Box" pack. For Koala, it's a mix. Koala provides some very nice curated sounds, but I also like using my own packs as well as recording my own sounds.
I plan to get into FLSM sometime later in December or in January. Once I get an OP-1F (I'm hellbent on it after seeing Hainbach's video), I'll figure out if the factory content is worth keeping on the OP-1F, or if I should just back it up to Dropbox in case I want to use those in the future and instead just use my own samples, lol.
Awesome mate! I'm glad I was able to mention the KSHMR packs in this thread so you could get in on the offer while the going was good. Even without vol 4, you WILL get a lot of mileage out of 1-3.
Excellent! I'll keep DSF in mind for Soundfonts in the future.
Sometimes with Lofi, modern doesn't always fit the aesthetic.
Me, I don't bother with curation, lol. Too much time spent sifting through everything and not enough time creating. 😂
Nice, thank you!
I generally use my own samples but now that I have an MPC I can see myself starting a more curated collection.
I’m getting page not found for this one (in chrome). Your third link worked (the African drums).
I have way too many gigs of samples on the device.
My main daw choices ship with solid banks. FLSM, BM3, iMPC Pro 2.
and they all have soundware stores in app. Ranging from at the very least solid, all the way to amazing.
The Akai sets are top tier on iMPC Pro 2, as are Retronyms bank offerings. i’ve spent a lot of money in that store and glad i have.
and that accounts for about 10 out of the 40 gigs of stuff i mess around with. the rest is from everywhere. Samples From Mars, Musicradar, tracker sample forums, rips from deprecated apps, etc etc
Hmm, maybe it’s on my end, internet is acting up a bit. Will try tomorrow.
Does it work now?
This is what I see:
I see the same, but when I tap Download or that white arrow, I’m getting Page not found. Whereas for the African set, a download actually started when tapping.
A true treasure chest and travel back in time
Is this free? I dont think so, I think its a pirate….?
Not to go off-topic (well it is my thread, lol), but I'm thinking about getting back into FLSM for Lofi production purposes.
And yes, it has many great sounds already in the product without needing anymore.
There was this post in iPad Musician group on Facebook from a Middle School teacher asking what apps we'd recommend her for her students. Even though I haven't used FLSM much in the past, I did recommend that to her as it's a very easy app to learn.

@Littlewoodg : Yiur comment surprised me. Why have I read so many negative comments on IMPC pro 2? Actually few people talk about it anymore . Am I missing something ?
You know what I just bought it in the sale. I’m really pleased with it. It’s taking me time to ‘learn’ but I’m old! I also only just discovered BeatHawk and I’ve already composed and released a track with that. Highly recommended.
Over the years I’ve collected lots of drum(machine) samples. But I mainly use Gadget (+ add-ons/IAPs) and I feel it has all the stuff I need.
Using the build-in sounds also guarantees it’ll open exactly the same on my other device.
I like this approach, I know where to find most sounds and it gives me peace in mind that I don’t have to go through 7 GBs of snaredrums that might work better for that track
I do have some SamplesFromMars packs which are good quality but hardly ever use them because of the reasons above.
to stave off a full on hijack of this fun thread i’ll pm u

Yes, I understand this. Thanks for sharing your knowladge.
Yesterday I bought Sitala sampler, just for easy checking big sample library that I bought years ago.
Sitala is very nice sampler!
Alrighty, so I just drop 150 quid on this.

Yes, made by the same Ocean on Youtube, and yes, these are the same samples you hear in his recent videos! I reached out to him since his prodbyocean.com site is defunct and I wanted to buy the samples. He directed me to the site you see above. He's a really nice guy, and these samples are 🔥🔥🔥 af! They have a "special sauce"!
Cheers. 😎
I don't use drums much, but I am beginning to explore other percussive sounds for texture in ambient production. So I'm beginning to gather and organise my own samples and field recordings.
I have gathered a small collection of samples, which I blend into projects, but also primarily use for inspiration.
I'm interested in how people are storing, using, editing and using their samples.
I'm learning to create my own samples for using and sharing now.
Are you doing that via decent sampler Ando?
I'm exploring different options at the moment. I seem to struggle with Decent Sampler. Maybe because it was really buggy and crash when I first started using it, way back when.
I keep feeling the pull to Beatmaker 3, but exploring all the options. Almost a year out of the loop is leaving me playing catch-up.
I also need to learn Drambo. 🙃
Nah, playing more with it over the past few days, it's still buggy as hell on multiple levels, sadly. Despite lowering the number of voices, I've been having lots of other problems even if I'm getting fewer crashes
