I'm happy to announce that we have some free samples on our brand new website. There are a few loops and 2 electronic kits, 1 drum kit and 1 percussion kit.
All are completely original material. The kits are mapped for the RM4 but the samples are regular waves so they can be used with other samplers/drum machines.
They were created with various synths though none is from the RM4 itself.
Let me know what you think.

I don't want to be harsh but these samples are not really usefull for me.
For the Fender Rhodes demo I don't understand, is it a real fender rhodes you are sampling or a synth emulation?

You're not harsh, everybody's entitled to their own opinions.
About the prpared Fender Rhodes:
It's a real Fender Rhodes that is prepared as John Cage and others prepared a acoustic piano, that means you insert, glue, tape, etc., all kinds of objects inside the piano. These objects when touching the strings or the tines change the sound of each key played. All the notes can be radically different from each other and often you don't even recognize the original sound. You get an instrument that is much more percussive in nature.
This has been done quite often with acoustic piano but to my knowledge, though I may be wrong, it's the first time it's done with a Fender Rhodes. The Rhodes belongs to and was prepared by Maxime de La Rochefoucauld who is also internationnally known as a composer and a builder of musical automatons (http://www.cam.org/~maxime/). I played and sampled
every note on the prepared Fender Rhodes, each note has multiple velocities.
As soon as I can figure out how to post a photo of it, I will.

The waves are available through the Sound Effects Library or contact me directly through my website.mindless wrote:those "techno" mp3 samples are cool!
but I can´t find any .wav samples of those?
Well it seems I cannot get the Rhodes photo to show in the forum but I've uploaded it on my website with the demo. And I just spoke with Maxime and he told me that he's not the first to prepare a Fender Rhodes, it has been done a few times before. And of course no 2 will sound the same.zvon wrote:As soon as I can figure out how to post a photo of it, I will.
