MS-20 Mini: Percussive Synth Samples

FANTASTiC | 13 May 2025 | 5 MB

..: The Sound of Machines :..

A few years ago I recorded an album called “The Narrow Passage”. As part of that project I recorded a few dozen one-shots from my MS20 Mini, which I’ve zipped here for you to use in your own project. Any processing is minimal—I tend to process in the context of the song and leave the raw samples as they are. This download includes 87 one-shots organized into 4 folders – cymbal, kick, snare, and hat. Enjoy!

Bass Sampled to Destruction

Welcome to The Basstard, an instrument focused on recording the gradual destruction of a full-scale orchestral bass. The library contains four core categories of sounds: “Tonal”, “Percussive”, “FX” and “Grooves”. The tonal category covers traditional multi-sampled articulations like plucked, staccato, rubber mallet on strings, regular drumstick on strings, fork on strings, and other tools that could be used for tonal sampling. The percussive category contains a variety of heavy round-robin based articulations, playing the instrument like a drum kit (containing 6-10 round robin articulations). The FX category has a gruesome number of effects such as bowing the bass with a baseball bat, using a power drill on the strings, recording sustained notes from it, and actually power-drilling the bass and reconfigureing the instrument, separating its neck from its body and essentially reassembling the instrument in horrible ways. The Groove category contains unique tempo-synched grooves recorded at several core tempos (80, 90, 100, 110, 120, 130, 140). The result is a deep-sampled instrument that pushes the concept of orchestral bass into a more dark, gritty, percussive and disturbing territory.
