A newly created FAQ section on our SampleRobot Support website might help you getting answers to your questions fast. You can find a lot of operation tips and inside information there as well. This section has become quite an extensive resource and it will be expanded in the future. It has been carefully edited from internal support documents that we assembled over the years.

We hope you had a good start in 2024. In the first week of January we received a huge and heavy package from a well-known company. Inside of it there was their new flagship synthesizer, an impressive 88 note hammer action instrument with lots of controls and synthesis and sample capabilities.

Whichever instrument you'll find under or next to the Christmas tree, might it be a vintage or a futuristic one, an acoustic or electric, small or large, we wish you a musical holiday time with lots of inspiration.

Merry Christmas to all of you!

Markus concludes: SampleRobot 6.6 is among the best tools when it comes to automated sampling.

This time YouTuber and samplist Stephen O'Connell produced a sample library called 'Snowfall' with the help of SampleRobot. Stephen says 'I ended up creating a cool, little library that has this transfixing sound, like an icy breeze over a frozen lake. I just fell in love with it, deciding it needed to be shared in its own right.'

We would like to share a story about a very special sampling project by one of our users. It all started when John Bunge reached out to us asking if SampleRobot could capture sounds from a unique instrument he built about 40 years ago. He called it 'The Box'.
