 Very rarely do you get a sample CD that is so versatile that can be used everyday. Well Eddie at Samplecraze has done just that. Featuring 24 folders, 600 megabytes jammed packed with different drum one shots. There is a total of over 5100 samples featuring everything you will need to create your next dance hit. The drums are clean and some of the one shots are without a lot of effects applied to them. This is how I like them either dry so I can add the effects and process them how I want them to sound or already with effects so I can just drop them in my productions. There are many variations of different drum components. Some are electrical (without sounding computerized), some acoustic, some gated and various different styles including hip hop. I feel that Samplecraze have spent a lot of time creating these one shots and mastering them to perfection and this in turn will help you create that perfect drum loop for your next production. The CD is set up into different folders by instrument names and include Cymbals, Shakers, Skins, Snares, Hats, Kicks, Percussion, Claps, Bells and more. Personally I think it would be hard to beat the Sample CD. I have found it very useful with the wave files being easily imported into Reason and Fruity Loops for use. The Drumm sample CD is available in many formats including, wave/aiff, Emu, Reason, Kontact, SF2 and Logic Audio. The CD is priced from £29.99 + P&H for the wave format of £49.99 + P&H for the other formats. Postage is quite reasonable for those living outside of the United Kingdom. This is a must have sample CD if you create your own drum loops and can be purchased online from Samplecraze using Paypal and Credit Cards. Review by DJ Scott-e |
