Sampling Workshop

SampleRobot sampling workshop for Waldorf Quantum and Iridium users
We are glad that author Markus Galla from German Amazona online magazine created a valuable in-depth workshop on how to prepare and transfer custom sample sets for the Waldorf synthesizers Quantum and Iridium. Markus concludes: SampleRobot 6.6 is among the best tools when it comes to automated sampling.

Snowfall Sample Set

Snowfall Sample Set
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.'

Heavyweight Samples

Heavyweight Samples

Starting the new year 2022 we have something special for you: A fragile and expressive sound from the past that was introduced 40 years ago in 1982 by Vangelis in his score for Ridley Scott's Blade Runner.

We multisampled a living heavyweight Yamaha CS80 to bring you the original CS80 sound that is reminiscent of the opening credits from the legendary science fiction movie.
