samples for simpler and impulse

shaneblyth · Post by **shaneblyth** » Sun Sep 19, 2004 1:12 am

total newbie wants to use a good sampler with good samples (and who doesnt)
being totally new to this can someone help.
what and where do i get some good samples that work with these 2 instruments in live.
I mainly want some really nice rock/pop drums
and some nice pianos/pads/brass

I looked at Mac five in a demo cd fro digital performer 4 but dont know if this is another sampler that is compatible with live the samples where very impressive.
mind you at nearly $400 USD for Mach Five I just about fell over

any comments and help to get some really nice samples would be very much appreciated

Mach Five IS a sampler. You want sounds right?

Here are some free ones. If you want commercial sample CD's just google "sample cd"

, so many...i will get lost,
one of the first looked interesting, the samples were so well organized, is just click and download, ..but i find that they don´t work whit Machine II vsti,
so if it is not asking to much and to make it easy for me,
do you know of any site that have samples ready to work in Machine II?
