Andrew Huang VAPORS Sample Pack WAV-FANTASTiC screenshot
FANTASTiC | 25 June 2024 | 43 MB
I've decided I want to share mini sample packs with you on a fairly regular basis. I create so much original audio when I'm working on music or videos or just messing around in the studio, I figure you may as well get some use out of it! It also alleviates some of the pressure/boredom of compiling large "proper" sample packs. If I made 20 cool sounds one week, I'll just share them with you right away.

Red Rock Sound MEQ-5 v1.5.2-BUBBiX screenshot
BUBBiX | 25 June 2024 | 22.96 MB
MEQ-5 Midrange Equalizer
The MEQ-5 based on Classic Mid-Range Equalizer from the '70s, with two bands of midrange boost and one band of midrange dip, the MEQ-5 gets the very best out of the «power region» where guitars and vocals can make or break a mix.
The HLF-3C completes the MEQ-5 plug-in. This plug-in has 12 dB per octave low and high cut filters, providing broad retro-tonal sculpting or bygone-era special effects, without the inconvenience of insertion loss found with the unamplified passive hardware.
Save time and avoid tedious manual workarounds with MEQ-5 plug-in designed from the ground up for fast, efficient work on mid/side, stereo and the objects, the beds (fixed channels) of immersive mixing environments.

Counterpoint Workbook By Kent Kennan PDF screenshot
1998 | 96 Pages | ISBN: 0130810525 | PDF | 33 MB
Designed for courses in beginning and advanced counterpoint, this established text introduces the contrapuntal style of 17th and 18th century music through analysis and writing. While a limited understanding of contrapuntal elements may be gained through analysis alone, these elements are grasped in a more intimate way through the actual writing of contrapuntal examples. Also, by linking the study of counterpoint to music of a specific period, the text provides a clear model for students to emulate and a definite basis for the criticism of student work.

14.01.2019 | x64 x86 VST AU WiN MAC | 20 MB
Audio Effect VST and AU Plug-in for the Rhodes

The Dyno mod was a famous hardware add-on for the Rhodes in the early 70's. We recreated the FX to be used for free on any Rhodes VST/AU instrument, but it's specially designed for Sampleson's Markus 88 Electric Piano

The effect was developed to enhance high and low harmonics and to give a wider feel to the Markus 88 Spectral Modeled Electric Piano
Despite this, the module can be used over any Rhodes VST. As far as it's designed to act over high harmonic spectrum you'll notice a blowing sound (produced by recorded samples) if it's used over a sample-based Rhodes

Audio: MP3, 192 Kbps, 48 Khz, 2 channels

Generally speaking, most rock grooves are based on 8th-note rhythms, while most funk
grooves are based on 16th-note rhythms. Jon Finn’s Rhythm Lab: Rock & Funk will not only
explain in detail how 8th-note and 16th-note rhythms work, you’ll put those rhythmic
principles to work across a series of rhythm guitar performance studies.
”Let's face it. If you spend any time working in a band, most of your time will be spent
playing rhythm guitar. Good bands want good rhythm guitar players. Oh, and by the way, the
best lead guitarists have a great sense of rhythm. So improving your rhythm improves all
aspects of your playing.
