Let’s use this place for sharing strategies and sample packs that we have chosen to pimp our STs with.
My first suggestion is the Relic Waves app that lets you download loopable wavs of algorithmic generated sounds.
Also the Microgranny sample bank is cool as they have there some pitched up stuff.
Personally, I’m not interested in the 909 hats, much more into exotic stuff, question is what tools to use to prepare loopable, short material…
Share your thoughts!
I’m thinking noise samples I’ve made from Soma’s Lyra-8 and Ether.
I’ll start with the new free pack just to get going and play with the update, but in the long run I’m going to do my own custom samples from my own music, plus maybe some classic record samples (for example James Brown vocals, funky horn stabs, etc.), and any other instrumentation or ambient or whatever samples that will fill in and be complementary to the Syntakt’s non-sample sounds.
will use everything for old digital drum machine samples (Kawai R50e, Akai XR10, Yamaha RY30).
In for ideas because I’m already struggling to strategise 
Yes, I was thinking old romplers, also sync oscs as the ST doesn’t have sync. Mellotron. I’m thinking of vibe-coding a tool that finds loop points and trims to 5 sec
I’ll probably rinse the stock samples untill I get bored and then load in samples from my dr-202
Using it for synth sounds seems really irritating without being able to control the start and end points on the box
First thought was like 
14 bread and butter drums
10 Noise sounds (vinyl , outside , water , rain ect …)
15 Real acoustic intsruments ( Bass (muted) , gtr , xylophones , pianos)
15 Synths sounds (Classic moog , supersaw (stereo speaded from my waldorf …) , ect …
10 Misc sounds (vocals (Classic ,Ahhh ,Ohhh’ss ,mmmmm ect / from East west or Omnisphere/ , fx ect …)
This is a first brainstom //…
The key will be for me to jump again in syntakt , make sevral tracsk and see what i usually miss ( this list is what i usually lmiss or lose tracks for , noise , ambient ect is perfect exemple …)
Arturia and UVI EMU emulations could be great for that also
Looping field recordings of streams and city noises and rain and stuff like that is a good idea. Assuming you can get the loop points right. 5 seconds is slightly too short but you could crossfade between two samples to make it slightly more interesting
If you have wavetables that are broken into the individual waves, you can load these into Syntakt and use an LFO to sweep the sample slot wavetable style, AND it’s actually much cleaner sounding than on DTII! It really brings something different to Syntakt.
If anyone wants to try this, @taro has recently released a web app that can break up your wavetables, Wavetable Splitter by Kimura Taro
pitch it up by an octave earlier, pitch down an octave on ST, now you have 10 seconds, but in 24kHz, so add some overdrive to generate fake harmonics, use another track (don’t know if sample 1 can also be looped, probably not) to add high passed white noise sizzle subtly to trick your brain into believing “hmm something’s wrong but maybe it’s not that low quality”
I was messing with putting lo-fi break beats this way. It works! You can even do 2 octaves up to get 20 seconds (but it’s definitely lo-fi )
On that note, how is the pitch shifting algorithm? It sounds good?
Just had 10 mins with it, I think it sounds good. Total 4 octave pitch range (+/-2 oct) which is great.
Anyone using this with single cycles yet? Modulating the mix on two different single cycles looping = wavetable synthesis.
Can you assign an lfo to the sample positions and apply slew for monomachine style time drifting between waveforms?
It appears that only the #2 sample of Twinshot loops, but djst 's video, high on the announcement page, demos looping single cycle waveforms and loopable one-shot samples, both as sample 2 (bottom row). I too am looking forward to experimenting with single cycle and wavetable sounds.
As for 64-sample recipes:
Clever idea haven’t seen anyone mention this
Of course Monomachine’s digi waves. Bbox and single waves
