sample packs

has anyone bought any of the sample packs advertised on the forum. im just curious as to what they are like. just wanted to add to the libaray of what i allready have one wax, they seem like a good deal. but im unsure, the only ones i would steer clear of are the ones that are called things like dilla type drums etc. but there is one which is a bunch of diffrent ones for like £23. are these packs worth it ? cheers

I think they are super-underrated. They are all very well produced but the infinity are my favorites. I like that not a lot of people outside this site know about them either.

Cheers for the reply, im thinking of getting the bass multi pack one and the one that features the rhodes piano multi pack one as well. Like i said it cant not help haveing go to samples, can it ?

Most of the sample packs have a free set of demo sounds for you to try before you buy.
At least gives you an idea of what you would be getting.

Ah, this i didnt know. Cheers for that. Gonna need a couple more cf cards then lol

All ready on it lol, just sent my mate a link about them, purely on your guys recommendations.

they def make good sample packs, ive been meaning to buy the infinity kits since they came out, but havent yet. i will one day! in the meantime, im still rocking the free demo sounds from here, im actually cleaning out my drums, but the infinity kits demo sounds def stayed, and im going to download some of the other free packs again until i have enough extra money to actually buy a few things from here.

another thing, i also tend to stay away from "dilla" "kanye" ect ect. type kits, but the ones on mpc-samples are actually worth checking for sure. they arent ebay kits or anything like that.

****edit i forgot the karate kicks pack i have is from mpc-samples; its dope.

i always laugh when i see the so called producer packs on e bay, people still fall for that

You want drums, by some records, punch up drum breaks, a thousand hits come up

The Infinity kits are both very cleverly made, but all that phase tweakery sort of folds my ears inside out and back to front. It's Tutor's best selling kit though, so it's irrelevant what I think.

I LOVE the first finger drumming kit. I rolled my sleeves up and honed it to exactly how I like to play, and I've killed many an enjoyable hour practicing with it since. I've also adopted Tutor's default pad layout which is much better than what I've been using for years.

Looking forward to checking out the 60s kit.

If you sign up to the MPC-forums.com monthly newsletter there is a demo kit included each month which includes free sounds from a number of the sample packs on offer.

Thanks for the great feedback everyone. Newsletter sign up here BTW:

Yeah i know what you mean, i have quite a big record collection for samples etc. but you can never have to many, the more you have, the more fun you get to have. I dont have crate digger tattoed down my arms for fun lol (not dissing you by the way)

yes a few... including infinity series
