Circuit bent TR-707
Devil07 is a classic Roland TR-707 drum machine instrument and much, much more! With close to 600 individual samples, and 21 banks of sounds, Devil07 will take you to places that the original 707 could never come close to.
The TR-707 used for this library was completely upgraded by master circuit bending technician Diabolical Devices. Using a system of patches and switches, each “bent” sound was explored and all of its expressions captured with high resolution a/d conversion. The library includes an enormous collection of “Mechanical”, “Bitpitched”, “Shorted” and “Rusted” sounds all categorized into individual banks.
Devil07 features
– Over 20 multi-sampled banks.
– Close to 600 high quality samples.
– Singly integrated Ableton Live Rack can be played as a seamless instrument.
– “Renoise Ready” XRNI files for instant playability.
– Kontakt KSP easy edit GUI
Devil07 is now available to Puremagnetik subscribers (requires Ableton Live 8.2.2, Kontakt 4.2, Logic 8 or Renoise 2).
Hologram Room FX sample library
Hologram Room – vol.1 by usoproject
Hologram Room is the first bundle of the abstract Sound Design Collection produced by sound designers and composers Matteo Milani and Federico Placidi (aka U.S.O. Project).
The two gigabytes of “ready to use” original sound elements are designed to help sweetening and enhancing a sound production. The whole library is organized in eight main folders: Active Drones, Alarms, Blips, Buttons, Communications, Ignitions, Telemetries, Transitions. It provides a selection of out of this world drones and ambiences, futuristic sound effects and electronic tools.
The sound designers have been spending hours composing, editing, mixing these categories in Symbolic Sound Corporation Kyma and Avid Pro Tools. All of the audio files have been embedded with metadata for detailed and accurate searches in a asset management software.
A note about the mastering: the library has not been peak normalized, but loudness normalized, based on the recommendation by the European Broadcast Union. What does it mean? During the audition of the samples, they will have the same loudness level when played through monitors.
This work has been made possible by the aid of LevelOne, a program developed by Grimm Audio.EBU TECHNICAL provides all kinds of information about the EBU R128 loudness recommendation. The official R128 documents and guidelines can be found online, as well as introduction papers and videos.
Here is what is included in Hologram Room – vol.1:Folders:Active Drones (81 items)Alarms (26 items)Blips (52 items)Buttons (62 items)Communications (18 items)Ignitions (34 items)Telemetries (35 items)Transitions (123 items)Tab-delimited file (.txt)Excel spreadsheet (.xls)License Agreement (.pdf)Artwork (.jpg)

Free sample pack based on the classic Roland 909
Tape Death has released Jomox XBase-09 Kicks, a free sample pack featuring sounds from the hardware drum machine.
The Jomox XBase-09 is an analog drum machine based on Roland’s 909. The difference is like the Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris fight in Way of the Dragon. They both got kicks, but at the end of the day Bruce Lee broke Chuck Norris’ fucking neck. The 909 is good, but the Jomox is better.
Our new sample pack consists of 53 samples from Hyphae’s XBase-09, created by Hyphae and Megatroid one hazy night in Hyphae’s studio. A secret weapon for years, we’re now sharing them with you cause we’re just good people. You can check out Megatroid’s new Jackie Onassis remix for a taste.
The Jomox XBase-09 Kicks pack is available as a free download (newsletter sign-up required).

Sample pack from a Reaktor Ensemble
Multiples has released Exploration: Reaktor, a free collection of samples taken from a Reaktor ensemble by T2D.
For those of you who follow our twitter feed you will no doubt have heard that T2D has been working very hard making a brand new synth with Native Instruments Reaktor technology.
It is currently in the version 1 stage of development and is a 3 oscillator synth routed through a Modulation Matrix were any of 3 seperate filters can be chosen for each of the oscillators to go through.
However, as this is being developed for T2D’s current record and soundscapes he is reluctant to allow the free download of the synth. He has allowed us to sample three of the current sounds he has made.
So, we have sampled them at every key from c1-c4 and then taken all three sounds and rinsed them through Guitar Rig in order to bulk out the pack.
The sample pack is available to download at no cost from Multiples.

New Ableton Live Rack featuring lots of Noises, Risers, Swooshes and more
This weeks Ableton Live Rack is a collection of white noise swooshes, risers, falling synths, and other useful transitional sounds.
They are great for adding tension or creating releases. Most were created with either virtual synths or sampled synths, and some sounds were sampled from old video games. These are some of the exact sounds I use during my live performances to add anything from anticipation, signaling a change, or creating atmosphere. I have added a bunch of useful effects. These are explained in the video, as well as a quick demonstration of how I might use them on a track, although for the sake of example, I may be slightly overdoing it. Enjoy and Share 
**Non Live users: You can use the samples in your DAW of choice**
Download the rack here: http://bit.ly/freesynth14
So much of our enjoyment in life relies on tension and release, and music is no different. This weeks free Ableton Live Rack is designed to help build that tension and release in your music. I’ve created a bunch of white noise risers and fallers, sampled some choice sounds from old video games, and created synths that climb and fall many octaves over time. Many of these sounds have been staples of dance and electronica for years, but more and more, as genres of music mix together, I find these sounds as useful in rock music as they are in anything else. Experiment with them. Use them to alert the listener to changes that are approaching, and to smooth out transitions.
Many of these sounds are the exact ones I use in my live performances, and they can work wonders whether entering or leaving a chorus, switching to a new song, or just as something to get the audience to make some noise of their own. I’ve added some effects that lend themselves nicely to all this swooshing around. There’s Flanger, Phaser, Reverb, Delay, AutoPan, Bit Crusher and a Beat Repeat that allows you to further destroy the sound. In the video, I explain how it all works and demonstrate some ways to (over)use the AfroDJMac Noises, Risers, Swooshes Rack. Use and abuse; enjoy and share.
