Futurists – melodic trance sample 01 example (download here).

in the spirit of sharing, I’ve uploaded a melodic trance sample for you to use in your productions, if you can find a use for it. I made it by modifying a sound from the Waldorf Blofeld; for example, I completely chopped the release off the envelope, changed the shape of the oscillators, randomized the LFO, and so on. I didn’t, however, use any software to filter or compress it in any way.

the sample comprises two full octaves, starting at C2 and hitting every note between that and C4. In order to use it you’ll have to cut it up using Ableton Live, or Pro Tools, or whatever you use. You can also cut off the delay from the sample if you don’t want that plucky ringing sound in your song. I’ve also added an example of what the sample might sound like if you gave it a melody at 135 BPM.

let me know if there are any other samples you might want me to cook up, and I’ll be glad to give it a shot.
