Getting Samples

Post by dankstar »

Sooo

How do you find samples to put on to your 404?

Are there any sites or anything that you can suggest?

Thanks guys.

Card readers. They are about 10 bucks and you can get them in any given electro shop. And sampling right?

u might want to amp your turntable signal , i know the 202 303 and 505 dont power turntables, however the filter is strong enough to boost it up a lil, yyou will get much better results if you power the table with an amp then sample . this is not neccacary for sampling from cd tape radio tv or anything that already has a boosted signal.. peace !

it's easy to get samples. I've gotten a bunch from the T.V. The 404 has a built-in mic. Just record something, chop it up, add effects, clip it again, resample again, etc. etc.
Next thing you know, you'll have a whole original bank of sounds...

This site is fast becoming a source of samples for SP users :)

Check here

and of course here
