Best samples or plugin for retro drum machine sounds.
Best samples or plugin for retro drum machine sounds.
I know there are a few core drum racks that have vintage drum machine sounds. I'm looking for something as close to the original as possible. Mainly looking at CR-78, DMX and Linndrum. I know there are sample packs from Goldbaby and others. As well I know Forgotten Keys do some nice stuff in a Kontakt plug. How do people find the native core retro drum sounds in Ableton like the Core-C78 compares to Forgotten Keys or other samples for accuracy?

Yeah, sometimes I actually wish I went with Spark instead of Machine.

Re: Best samples or plugin for retro drum machine sounds.
I decided for Fxpansion Tremor instead of samples. My objective isn't to get the sound from before but to do analogue drums as I always wanted them. It's the attack phase that makes the difference. Of course Tremor can't do everything, but so far I've had very little use of drum machine samples. But samples are always useful if you have the time to investigate them. I love pairing samples with synths, but there's a certain amount of work involved naturally.IronShirt wrote:I know there are a few core drum racks that have vintage drum machine sounds.

I guess the time you need to invest in any synth is the major drawback programming analogue drum sounds yourself. The Tremor presets aren't that great, so it takes you investing the time to create the sounds you need.
