if nothing else, i'm really happy about this week, cause i'm experimenting with my own vocal samples. i've done recordings for others before, but this is the first time i've actually worked with them. :D

Yes.

Big K brand is legit. And inexpensive.

But I'm more for Dr. K anyday.

Awesome, I was hoping you'd make a mix with vocal samples one of these rounds. Looking forward to it!

Urdailywater, I just noticed in your sig that you're a Touhou fan.
MUCH respect man. If you ever want to collab, I'm keen. I loved your entry for the first round. <3

Anyone know where I can find some good cymbal roll samples? Preferrably not an orchestral one, as I already have one of those.

That may be a bit difficult if you're going for specific hits as opposed to the electronic reversed swelling type. For rolls that actually feel the tapping, orchestral rolls are most likely your best bet; I in particular like using the EWQLSO Gold cymbals to that affect, though it's safe to say they're definitely not in your price range right now >_>

If you just want a nice swell and you have $60 or so to spare, I would recommend Wave Alchemy Pack 01, take their cymbal selections (nice range in regards to tones too, particularly in regards to your chilled house style), reverse and apply whatever effects you would like on them. The other samples on board can also expand your selection in regards to minimal electronic percussion.

In other news... seems as if the Windows updates have officially killed this laptop - it just keeps getting dirty, and I've ran about 6 checkdisks in the space of 2 weeks, which just doesn't seem right. And after a discussion about potential computer upgrading with my mother (actually she started the subject after she got a laptop for herself last week), it seems like I'm going to have to get a new PC myself sometime soon. 4GB of RAM and Intel 4 just won't cut it anymore for what I plan to do with it <_<

If you get a computer that can run this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9F3q8kAb00

.......then that's about it... that's all you need!

Dude, that sounds lovely and could even work with this old thing, but £300 for it? It may be considerable, but I won't call it an urgent purchase. I'll still be fine with whatever patches I have ;)

I've got a ton of WAV one-shots at home that might work depending on what you need. When I get home from work let me take a look at what I got and I could upload a zip and send them to you.
