As always, we made sure to label everything by key and BPM. Luckily the result turned out pretty cool. Instead we used saturation emulations, noise recordings, vinyl crackles, some really cool plugins + my own Ableton Racks to make these samples “feel old”. To be honest: we didn’t have access to a real tape machine or anything comparable. Lunar further contains beautifully nostalgic melody loops made with both instruments and synthesizers. With 80 drum shots and 5 top loops the kit contains everything you need to start producing chill beats for rainy days. To impart the kit with that “organic” character lo-fi is known for we also layered a few one shots with field recordings. They have been processed using various lo-fi effects, like analog compressors, different distortion and saturation units, filters or sample / bitrate reduction. Some of these samples are based on analog drum machines and others are based on acoustic drum kits. It comes with a variety of different low fidelity one shots, including kicks, snares and everything else you could possibly need. Let’s start with the drum pack included in “Lunar”.
Lunar is a free Lo-Fi sample pack, including more than a hundred drum one shots, cymbals, tuned 808s, melodic loops and ambience recordings.
