A Collection Of 1000+ Instruments [For Free] 🎻 

The thing with FTUS is that it will also cost quite a bit just for the storage to put it all on. Then there is the issue of how long it would take to audition that many samples.

Unison website was down yesterday, a youtuber said yesterday that the Drum Monkey plugin is now $1000 lol I had to check but the site was down. Let's hope they stay dead.

Can "over 222,708 satisfied customers" be wrong? LOL!

Omfg, thank you 🤣 there ads are so annoying

Hi SIr, Which lens are you using in this video?🙂🙂🙂🙂

Best comment xD

Definitely would make a million in voiceovers

😂

Would be great for documentaries lol.

What a fucking goat

Wow thanks

Powah tip! Thanks!

Commenting and liking for the algorithm. Thanks for sharing the info, huge help learning things like this

Bless you.

Do you know if I can load samples from pianobook on an ipad?

Absolutely! A lot of Pianobook stuff lends itself well to cinematic-y stuff which is awesome. Of course, there's still a time and place for big Kontakt libraries and whatnot but this project closes that gap significantly which is incredible.

But you don't! 😒

@@kumarsajal8400 what

@@VenusTheory I can agree though I still enjoy the creative juices when modifying patches or Studio Sets. However, from scratch? Yes, but less often, there are too many good starting points out there to build on..

Sound design is always worth your time, especially if you hit a creative block or need a bit of a break and something different to do before going back to composing and mixing with a refreshed mind. You don't have to start from scratch if you don't want to, starting from zero can be more challenging for some people, and you always have the option to start with ready-made presets

Huh actually yeah it does haha. Might have to use it for some spoopy projects I'm working on.

I can almost swear it sounds identical to FKJ Ylang Ylang

He’s since gotten darker…

wait what

@@unoriginalk2665 Hi! TLDR: duplicate a DecentSampler preset folder. Rename it to what you want. Rename the .dspreset file to the same. Make Sample(s) you want. Rename the .wav files to what the .dspreset file is expecting. Replace the old .wav files with the ones you have made. Done. Some better 'splainin' here: The way this sampler works is like this: The sampler (DecentSampler.dll) accesses an XML file. XML is a type of plain text file that is mostly readable by humans. It has a syntax not very different from HTML. This XML file is just a list of "things" and "values" that tell the Sampler what to do, such as what is the range of a sample on the keyboard (such as, say, C3 to D5 or whatever). Another thing this sampler can do is stack samples by velocity, so this way a sample might be of a gentle strike below say, 64 in velocity, and a hard strike above 63, etc. Each velocity layer has a name, you get the picture. *For the sake of simplicity, I won't get into layers here.* For the sake of simplicity, we'll look at one of the sets that only has one sample in it: Ash's Singing Radiator. The name of the wav file used in Ash's Singing Radiator is "LS_50404_bipA#5.wav". To find it go to where ever it is you installed the resources for DecentSampler. (For me, I saved them to a different huge internal drive, "Internal 2TB", so as to not clutter my SSD. For me, the path to LS_50404_bipA#5.wav is: D:\AUDIO FILES\Decent Sampler Files\Ash's Singing Radiator (DS)\Samples\LS_50404_bipA#5.wav) And the first thing you do is duplicate Ash's Singing Radiator folder. Name it something you want, say, Khalliope's NoiseBox. Now: Inside the Khalliope's NoiseBox folder, rename the XML file. It will have the suffix ".dspreset". So, the XML file will now have the name "Khalliope's NoiseBox.dspreset". So now, all you have to do is take a .wav file of whatever noise that flips your crank and makes you happy, then name it "LS_50404_bipA#5.wav" and *REPLACE* the old LS_50404_bipA#5.wav file in your Khalliope's NoiseBox / Samples folder with this new one. *BANG. That's It. You're done.* You now have a DecentSampler preset called "Khalliope's NoiseBox" available to you in DecentSampler next time you open your DAW. Easy Peasey. You can reverse engineer other samplers like this - eventually you learn what is in the XML file and what it means. It's really just a list, a kind of look-up table so DecentSampler knows where to find the samples and what to do with them. I expect DecentSampler and the rest to fade when Reaper rebuilds Samplematic5000 into something more useful and 64bit. But until Reaper comes up with a more intuitive, powerful and easier to use Sample player (like, *cough* Ableton's Simpler...) hacking DecentSampler files is a fairly easy thing to do.

@@Novalarke "TL;DR" *makes comment fucking 6 times longer than the first*

@@syd7750 - So when did your parents remove your sense of humour? Or were you simply born without one?

@@Novalarke thanks for the explanation, it helped me understand and I look forward to trying it out. Plus I enjoy reading and learning. some folks just don't.

Agreed

I use spitfire on linux, but it's good to have alternatives like this

Decent Sampler, which Cameron uses in this video, is free.

there's the free Kontakt Player and free libraries across the internet, too, if you're interested

Ohoh hey Sage good to see you here man :)

@@TheGhostRecordsChannel Good to be here and it’s sweet to see the love for Pianobook. Cheers!

@@sagereynolds Your work is awesome, Sage! It's so cool that you were featured as the simplest of the month. Very well deserved!! Congrats!

@@samecoff2788 Thanks Sam! I dig your sample packs, too. Today I’m finishing-off one more sample pack for February 2022 to share on Pianobook. What an inspirational community!

@Chris Cheltenham You're very welcome, Chris! It's always a pleasure hearing about folks using one of my sample instruments. I hope you've gotten a chance to try-out the new Spitfire LABS version and I hope that Harmonic Flights continues to give you inspiration! All the best.

I would call it an alternative rather than a competitor

@@AARVMUSIC Great point , I’m still surprised that Iris2 doesn’t get the recognition it deserves as an alternative as well

Been meaning to do this video for ages - Pianobook deserves a lot more attention, this project is amazing!

@@VenusTheoryI am unable to confirm my email on the website what is the procedure for the same??

Can you tell about confirming email, I am unable to confirm on this website

How is it going??

@@halfcamel6063 Good. I recently upgraded to Ableton Standard and working on a few tracks at my own slow pace.

You mean on PIanobook?! There is absolutely no evidence and the site already has the ones checking the libraries because the site has precise rules if I'm not mistaken and I really think someone would notice that so pretty sure no in both case.

@@TheGhostRecordsChannel Ok I hope your right as love the idea of Piano book I dont want them facing a parental crippling lawsuit.

Рад помочь! Иди и сделай с ними что-нибудь классное! 🎉

Closed source as hell and is insanely hard to work with kontakt due to its strange proprietary and encrypted formats Plus as you said profits, and player is used to entice you to the rest of the ni library

Developers are seeing a completely different game to what we, the customers are. with a propietary sampler of their own, they do not have to shell any cash to another company. i mean, for example with NI, it costs 13 grand to have like 1500 licenses, 300 free runs and have your shit encoded to their format. imagine what happens when you get a big breakthrough as a developer and your shit gets like five to seven figure yearly downloads? now, imagine the same scenario if they release their own sampler?

@@intergalacticspacecanoe4659 developers always get screwed. I worked in the enterprise software business for 27 years. So developers strike gold, but it’s rare. Private equity have billions to invest and few places to put it. They see musicians/producers with home studios as an opportunity to capitalize and make money - the opposite of what motivated developers to create the next VST or plugin.

I was about to ask the same question. @venustheory :-)

Boom, probably.

Might have a really well hidden lavaliere (?) mic.

I'll have his people call my people haha. Cheers! ☕

Same

Same, looks like everyone is having this issue. Something wrong on their website.

Same, and they don't answer to emails submitting the issue. It seems it's not new, I've found a post on Reddit discussing that in in february or something like that.

Random stock music from the RU-vid library - not sure offhand but perfectly fit the vibe I was going for, and saved me the time of having to make a bunch of cues haha.

Fully and absolutely.

Lmao
