Sampling sources

Don’t know if this really fits here, so by all means, feel free to move it. What do you guys sample from into the OT? I’ve generally just been sampling from Youtube, BBC documentaries and old records I have lying around, but came across this little gem on Reddit today;

Pretty neat! Lots of good audio clips there. Why not make this thread a sort of link library for online sampling sources? That’d be cool. :slight_smile:

I do a lot of studio jamming on guitar, pedals, synths, etc. That gets chopped up and fed to my OT, though I have used Youtube and the net for other source food. The beauty of the OT is that you can turn anything unrecognizable!

I usually do sampling from my other gear…but my favourite place where you can find really nice field recordings is this one…http://aporee.org/maps

A must…thank you soooo much Udo Noll (the creator…)

Wow thank you for this link. That site is an awesome ressource

That’s pretty amazing, thank’s for sharing!

I usually use my own field recordings, I have just uploaded a few to the Radio Aporee page here: http://aporee.org/maps/work/search/?u=1021

I normally have a preamp connected to my OT, so I can sample the musicians I am playing with with microphones. My Nord Lead 3 also goes into the OT for sampling…

OP-1. As I’m flying a lot this year it’s invaluable. I create patches, tracks, record obscure foreign radio etc. then sample into the OT when I get home.

:joy:

say thank you to Udo…he’s a really nice guy! and he created something sooo important for all the Earth community… =)

cheers d^_^b

Mainly records. I really enjoy sampling vinyl, to me it’s by far the most enjoyable form of sampling. It feels so hands on, I love browsing through my records, I love digging small record stores and second hand shops for something to sample.

I don’t think it as sampling in the same way, but I also really enjoy resampling my loops and that way creating something new to work with. Starting with bunch of vinyl samples, creating a loop, resampling that, slicing that, rearraging the sliced loop, maybe some new samples, resampling etc…

Most sampling my Nord Lead and Animoog at the moment :slight_smile:

Sweet! Many thanks! :slight_smile:

And on the topic of sampling old records, this little mini-documentary is just great;

Secondhand Sureshots - Ras G, Deadelus, JRocc and Nobody are given $5 each to buy vinyl at secondhand shops and make a track sampling from those records. They ended up releasing the thing on vinyl - and the results were pretty cool! :slight_smile:

O wow!!! This is so cool! My hometown has quite a few recordings too!

Thanks!

I mostly sample my iOS apps into the OT.

Vinyl and Analog 4 mainly (and an invaluable Speedy J Kontakt Library).

But great thread thanks for the info share.

Fantastic! Thank you.

Hey Cenk…which is your town?

This is totally awesome. Loving the drones from the nuclear power station on the beach at Sizewell. Anyone else swim in the sea 100m from a reactor? plenty do including myself. It’s not a normal day at the beach…anyway back to the point.

This map also inspires viewers to add sounds which is such a great thing. Thanks for sharing sicijk.

Those audio maps posted earlier are awesome. Hours of fun.

I like to samplethe old public information movies from the internet archive.

My answer is kind of boring… I just sample from my monomachine and blofeld, sometimes some direct recorded guitar… or mine older tracks I’ve done.

@sicijk - this is probably THE most useful thing in the internets :wink: deepest gratitude for sharing!

Lovely Istanbul :slight_smile:
