Trap Beat Sample Pack 1

By K-o-m-o-d-O on September 15, 2018 3:56 am

Bit different this week - my musical project was micing up and recording a friend's drumming, ending up with around 50 different beats/samples/one-shots and jams, to put together into a drum 'sample pack'.

I think the result was pretty good - despite my moderate mic setup and a few weak links in the recording chain. A solid mix and lots of tweaking on the compressors brought everything to life quite a lot.
Nude C12 Condenser in front of the kick doing 80% of the work here

and a Rode M1 dynamic to get the floor tom.

Lots of compression and some v slight tweaks in the EQ and not much else.

uploaded here is a fairly long jam to get the jist of the project across - and something we'll be doing more of and improving each time. With the intention of uploading as a purchasable 'sample pack'

Thanks for listening!
