I made some awesome snare samples for you guys today, but need some help...

[Mattayus]

... they're not ready yet. Only just finished recording them, and still have to process them etc. and I have a few questions, but first let me just explain...

I figured it was about time I gave something back to the forum after being here a year and getting so much wealth of knowledge as well as resources from some amazing engineers.

My friend (and ex band member) came over today with a couple of fantastic sounding snares, and we multi-sampled and multi-mic'd them.

So what you'll get is the following:

Pearl Export ELX Maple 14 x 5.5
Pearl B1330 Brass Piccolo 13 x 3

Snare top with a 57
Snare Bottom with a Samson Q-Snare
Room with Samson C01
Overheads with Samson C01's

I will edit and mix them in varying 'Z' categories, Slate style.

You will get raw WAVS as well as .gog files.

HOWEVER...

Since I don't have Slate Trigger would someone be willing to make some .TCI files for me so they can be part of the package?

Many thanks, I will try to get them edited and uploaded ASAP!

cant wait to hear this

I can make tcis for ya if you want.

 

[Mattayus]

Badass man, thanks!
I'll PM you a dropbox link once I've finished editing them.

I don't want to hype these up too much just in case you guys think they suck So let me just say that they're not amazing - but usable for sure. I think they sound good at least, but perhaps aren't what some would deem as "commercial" level. I'll let you judge for yourselves! But I just wanted to give something back at least.

Hi,
Great idea, can't wait to hear your samples !

For the .tci thing, don't you know that Trigger Instrument Editor is free ?
You can get it here in the "downloads" section : http://www.slatedigital.com/trigger.php

It's also pretty fucking easy to use
So that you can make the .tci the way you want.
If you need help to check them in context then, I can help too

 

[Mattayus]

Ah ok I did not know that, thanks for the heads up!

 

[zver]

dude maybe they are not the best samples but maybe they can help to make the best snare sound the best snare drums on solo are not really good as they sound in the mix

 

[Mattayus]

True, thanks for the vote of confidence dude!

I have a question regarding the 'Zones'.
I have close mics, ambient, and overheads.

So far I've done:
Z3 - close mics only
Z1 - close mics and a little ambient

So what about Z2 and Z4? One of them can be in stereo with the overheads, and then what? The other with no close mics and just ambient & overheads only?

Gonna make the .tci's tomorrow dudeski \m/
