  1. Dave Bryce - Thanks. I like your stuff too. Your mp3s sound great! What do you use for encoding? BTW, I'm in LA as well. In fact, my girlfriend rides at Foxfield off Potrero in Westlake. The drum sounds in that song came from a lot of different places. Some are from Rebirth mods, since they're loops I made in Rebirth, but most of them are my own. I use Stomper a little and sample from vinyl, my XD-5, some CDs, and some sample disks. I use SoundForge and WaveLab for editing and processing. About prefab sample CDs: I feel least proud when I use drum samples from sample disks, like it's too easy, but my main concern is the quality of the final product. So if that's the sound I'm looking for, that's the sound I use. Sample loops are a different story. I use them very rarely, because they drive me nuts for lack of control. And I've actually heard two bands use the same loop before, it's really obvious and dissappointing. If you're really trying to be creative (as opposed to just producing some commercial music), sample disks should be a starting point, not an ending point. I slice, dice, and process like mad before any prefab loops make it into any of my songs. Of course, this is just my opinion. It's really just a matter of taste. Ask any drum'n'bass producer who has looped the Amen break...
