FAQs

• Will this work with my sampler?

  The sounds and kits in this pack work with all MPC models including the new MPC X and MPC Live, as well as all legacy MPC models (WAV and MPC SND format samples are included). The WAV files are also compatible with all software samplers and DAWs (e.g. Kontakt, Battery, Maschine Logic, Cubase, Reason etc).

• Do you use unique sounds in all your packs?

  Yes, most definitely. Each time we create a new product, we sit down and create/record all sounds for that pack entirely from scratch, so it is impossible for us to repeat identical sounds across different products in our catalogue.

• How old are your sample packs - are the sounds fresh?

  We are constantly creating new drum packs with fresh, modern sounds, while at the same time 'phase out' any older products that are past their shelf-life. We don't want to sell our customers 'old' sounds, so you can be confident that any pack you buy will have the most up-to-date hip hop drum sounds available.

• What gear do you use to create your sounds?

  We have an extensive collection of classic and modern studio equioment including a Neve Mixing Desk, two Urie 1176, Chiswick Reach, Pheonix Compressor, Manely Massive, Various Akai MPCs, Emu SP1200 and an exhaustic array of hardware and digital signal processors (too many to list!). Plus for many packs we utilize local recording studios and musicians to get the signature sound we need.

• Do your drum samples work in any other samplers or software?

  Yes! Our packs all contain WAV files which will load into all DAWs, software samplers, Maschine, Kontakt, Battery and many hardware samplers.

• Does this drum pack also contain the bass and fx sounds I hear in the demo?

  No, this is just a drum sample pack - all our demos contain additional production to help you hear just how these drums sit within a full mix. Please check the technical specifications to see exactly what is included in this pack.
