Battle 40 - Collaborate

Ahaha !

I spent my whole noon break trying to put samples within the OP1 Drumkit Editor : they are too long ! I have to chase their tail ^^
So I am quite sure this won’t be finished for tomorrow :frowning:

But I promise I’ll release it once done, in about a week + the few days to get this properly done…
My intention are :
- 1 AR drumkit
- 1 MD drumkit
- 1 MM drumkit (glitches, cracks, FM and such)
- scories and weirdness from OP-1

As for the synth kits, I’ll work on OP-1 patches, not that found of synth sampler…

@yoof’s tool for automatically assigning samples to drum patches is a great help for that kinda work @LyingDalai, just sayin’ =)

@vehka Are you talking about “OP1 DrumUtility” ?

That’s the one I use.


Btw : vehka → vk → one of the best concert places in Brussels !!
When I see your moniker I can’t help but think of all the good time I’ve had there a decade ago…
:smiley:

I meant this one: https://github.com/operator1/op1, discussed here: https://www.operator-1.com/index.php?p=/discussion/967/little-raspberry-pi-project.


Glad my nick activates nice memories. =)

Don’t get scared off by the raspberry pi in the thread title - it’s just a command line tool. It’s quite good to use when you’ve got lots of samples and you want to generate the smallest number of kits for the number of samples you’ve got. It’s got a best fit algorithm inside it.

For the 4 drumkits, we can use anything any sound ? I’ve never made a “normal” drumkit with drums or real things (I don’t really need to do that 'cause nice people do it very good :D, with very good drum samples)

I generally use the drum sampler or a microphone directly on the OP-1 to create parts of drumkits or things like that (the jew’s harp in my last track for example).

But when I do that I don’t make a perfect drumkit where all keys are affected or set.

Can I do something like this whithout breaking the rules?

There’s no such thing as a perfect drumkit :smiley:

I feel like it’s part of this Battle to come up with something you find decent enough !

@quarantequatre - you can provide 12 seconds X 4 of whatever sounds you would like for the drumkits.

and 6 seconds X 4 of whatever sound sample, or synth patch you want to create for the synth.

here are my kits:

I’m in. here is a link to my samples and patches https://soundcloud.com/alexandersteinitz/sets/op-1-samples-patches

they include samples from mp3’s and internet videos or trailers, the radio, a cassette, my alesis SR-16 drum machine and my modular set-up (a bit-crusher, percussion thing and a oscilator)

there’s more than four of each i think. should i just post the 4 synth and 4 drumkits instead?

@curdledgurled - the idea of the battle is to share 4 of each, and then combine them with 4 of each that you pick up from another operator.


please pick the 4 that you intend to actually use in your own track to share with the rest of us.

note that you could opt to only use the 4 that another operator provides, (but then it’s a bit less of a collaboration).


@kln Okay i was a bit unclear on that part.

Cool, AR is going to be updated tonight.

Looking forward to cook a drumkit with 1.30 flavors ^^

Okay, I’m taking part!


For the drums I used my Nord Drum 2. The first three kits are a bit more vanilla – for the fourth kit, I ran the hits through my DSI Evolver, which results in a gritty, kind of spring-reverby sound.

As for the synths – the two first are more basic, and the last two are samples from my Evolver.

Hope somebody has fun with these!

Great stuff so far, I'm in!

Here are my Drum Kits:

A little info: There are two hybrid drum/vocal sample patches (one darbuka kit) and two vocal only sample patches of my friends and me. Some of it is kinda crazy, so fair warning, haha.

And here are my Synths:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/oanshch39h6kmo8/Edzilla%20Synths.zip?dl=0
These are all my patches I created on my Bass Station II. The space one is low on the default octave, so octave up to hear it better.

I look forward to our collaborations!


here’s my track. https://soundcloud.com/alexandersteinitz/the-golden-rule

i used all the drums save for one, a different sound for each drum. they were my bass sample, my alesis drum machine sample, a sample of sarah palin for the vocal, and all of borden’s drum patches. i used borden’s brain synth and my modular sample as a synth as well.

@curdledgurled this is awesome!

It’s interesting that you chose my synths, I’ve been playing with your samples for the last week or so.

Life has gotten real busy this week. I am moving, I’m sick, and I have to give a talk this weekend. hopefully I will have some time to make noise soon.
