[PD] Free samples somewhere on the net?
Hello everyone! I just got a brand new midi keyboard and i'm very excited! Anyway, i was wondering if anybody knows where i could find some good quality samples of electric keyboards (like the Rhodes), for free (yes, i m using Pd also because it is free and because i m not exactly a millionnaire, although i like it so much now that i don't think i'd use anything else if i were that rich. Anyways...). I have found this : http://www.hispasonic.com/noticias/dsk-music-presenta-hispasonic-sampled-series-11918 which appears to be free, but i have no idea what these formats are, nor how i could use the samples in Pd. Do you know if i could convert any of these into a WAV format that i could use in Pd? Cheers!

Anyway, i was wondering if anybody knows where i could find some good quality samples of electric keyboards (like the Rhodes), for free Hi Pierre, not sure if you'll find keyboard sounds there though, but certainly worth checking out: www.freesound.org The Freesound Project is a collaborative database of Creative Commons licensed sounds for instrument sample banks you could also do a search for .sf2 (soundfonts) In pd you need an external to use them. I think there was one, ([fuid~]?) but I remember searching for it and not finding it a while ago... theoretically you can use something like Qsynth+Fluidsynth and control it from pd using alsmidi (or jack...), but in practice (at least the times I tried it) the timing is unuseably irregular. btw what OS are you using ? These suggestions apply to linux. I'm sure there are a lot more options on other OSes. gr, Tim (yes, i m using Pd also because it is free and because i m not exactly a millionnaire, although i like it so much now that i don't think i'd use anything else if i were that rich.

Anyways...). If you're looking for soundfonts there're a lot at: http://www.hammersound.net/ A lot of them are terrible, but there are quite a few usable ones in there. To use them in FluidSynth (or using the QSynth front-end) you'll want to get them in .sf2 format. Sometimes they're in .sfArk format, which is a compressed format that I think you need to use a windows tool to un-compress. It may work in wine, though. -s ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
Re: [PD] Free samples somewhere on the net?
Thank you all for your replies! I just found a pack of samples in Freesound that could be what i'm looking for (individual notes from a Rhodes). The files are in .aif (i think Pd can read those, right?). The whole pack (53 notes) weighs about 110 MB, so i'm assuming the sample rate is quite good. I'll let you know how it sounds. The samples are located here, if anybody needs a Rhodes sample. http://www.freesound.org/packsViewSingle.php?id=3957 Pierre 2010/4/15 Spencer Russell spencer.f.russ...@gmail.com On Thu, Apr 15, 2010 at 6:57 AM, Pierre Massat pimas...@gmail.com wrote: Hello everyone!

i often use sounds from the olpc project: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Sound_samples there are also a few instrument-multisamples. and here are quite a lot samples of piano and orchester instruments: http://theremin.music.uiowa.edu/MIS.html bis denn! martin ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
Re: [PD] Free samples somewhere on the net?
Speaking of samplebanks, an interesting approach in pd would be to do a good Rhodes modeling patch, rather than using a samplebank... For example, I was quite impressed when I heard the 'pianoteq' piano modeling instrument. It's not pd, nor is it free software, but I can't help but think something similar should be possible to make in a pd patch...no? 2010/4/15 martin brinkmann m...@martin-brinkmann.de i often use sounds from the olpc project: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Sound_samples there are also a few instrument-multisamples. and here are quite a lot samples of piano and orchester instruments: http://theremin.music.uiowa.edu/MIS.html bis denn! martin ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
