I’ve been working on a bunch of music and I’ve accumulated a bunch of samples, presets, and patches. To be exact 2500 samples, 320 for A4, 320 for RYTM, and various others. Nobody has really given me a great tutorial for samples other than https://splice.com/blog/tips-for-creating-your-own-sample-pack/ and http://tweakheadz.com/sampling-tips/ Is there a more comprehensive tutorial or a post talking about preparing samples and presets for Elektron gear?
I’ve followed most of those tutorials but I still have questions…
-
I guess my main concerns are with amplitude on the samples. How loud should they be when bouncing them? Some of my samples are low in volume. My best guess is to raise the volume slowly before distortion. Is this just a subjective thing or is there a min volume to keep it at? Is there a rule to follow here?

My other concern is with distribution and organization. Looking for anything that talks about this. Are most people’s samples distributed on their own individual websites? Is it organized specifically other than like a typical pack on splice?
Anyone an expert here?
