Would anyone know this sample library?

[Chris Lago]

I was browsing through my sample folders and found one called 'High End Drums Demo'. I want to buy it but I have no clue where to find it.

The samples go like this:

Clap_(A_SynDecay)
Clap_(B_Glammourous)
Clap_(B_ThickTAPE)
Clap_(C_FleshSNAP)
Clap_(F#_SnapDragon)
Kick_(A_CutTHRU)
Kick_(A_DarkCave)
Snap_(C_StereoLEX)
Snare_(B_Flicker)
Snare_(E_GlobalHustle2)

Not a lot of sample libraries do it like this, if anyone would know which website it is, please let me know.

When I saw the unusual sample names you posted I got reminded on a folder with a few kick drums I got from them -
I believe the site owner posted them here in some drum discussion thread not to long ago.

Thanks a lot for the help.

Yea i got those too! They re pretty hot.

[Magic Theatre]

Yeah, that's our "High End drums" sample pack. So far the response has been great and we're working on a Volume 2.

Thanks to all the GS members for all the positive feedback you've sent, there's a lot more to come from us.

Peace

Here's the song I've been talking about, I used the kick and snare, hi-hat and another snare from Magic Theater's library High End Drums (Possibly buying the whole library tomorrow). An A&R at Atlantic is interested in signing me because of this song, so big props on the sample library. This is still a demo version, I have so much to add still (I'm at track 111!).

No Auto-tune, Melodyne, Elastic Audio, none of that crap. Lots of stacking.

Oh and by the way, I midi'ed my Korg MicroX a lot for that song, the intro is made with it actually.

The song is being mixed by me at another studio, on a Neve Console, NS10s, definitely a huge difference in sound! This is definitely because of Fabian that I chose to mix that song on a Neve.

Nice track . I Really liked it.

The verses sound a bit like Justin .
And the chorus could use some more bass or power so it stands out more ,
But maybe that will get fixed in the mixing.

Overall a really good track.

Hey thanks, yes there are 3 labels looking for artists in the range of Justin Timberlake, Lady Gaga and Britney spears, so I decided to push the magic button a bit more. The track isn't finished, I'll probably play live bass in the chorus.

Nice track Chris. Kind of sounds like Erasure meets Justin Timberlake with some Lady GaGa Poker Face influence
I do like those drum samples too.. I gotz to check them out.

I think you may have something good on your hands here... Give that track some more balls in the mix!

Oh yeah, refer to this thread of what I highlighted: Why So Many Tracks?

Yeah I definitely think I got a good mix going, I need to add bass though. There will be a small rap part in it as well.

Hey, great work man, very slick track. Glad to hear your enjoying the sounds.

Anyone interested in checking out more of our sounds in context, check out one of our main sound designer's page, where he uses the MTA drums throughout.

Good luck with this

It's definitely not about me, he asked to upload the track! I wouldn't have uploaded it if he didn't ask.

Edits: Oops I thought he wanted to hear how it sounded, my bad guys.

Last but not least, it was about me finding the name of the sample pack so I can buy it!

I think I did respond to you. It's a very simple process, I just play notes on the piano and mess around with the tuning of a drum sound till I find the key. If you have a good ear and pitch sense, it very easy.

anyway thx for clearin this up!

for me its very hard to find the key of drums and shit

No problem. It's definately something worth learning, if you're producing Urban music. If you use drum hits that resonate with the key of the track, your tracks will sound bigger, and all your sounds will sing together harmoniously.
If you don't, your sounds can often conflict with each other and make the overall track sound smaller and more chaotic.
