Pad samples pack free download

MusicRadar has announced the release of 258 free shimmer and sparkle samples, a free collection of loops and samples.

Music producers are contrary creatures. They spend half their time trying to add dirt to sounds, and the other half working on clarity and brightness.

It’s those shimmering and sparkling sounds that we’re dealing with here: if you want glistening arps, bubbling bells and pristine pads, read on…

The sounds are split into eight folders, five of which are tempo-labelled, with the others named to indicate the samples contained within them.

All the samples are supplied as WAV files and they’re 100% royalty-free. This collection was previously featured on Computer Music magazine’s cover DVD.

You can download the free samples on the MusicRadar website, no registration is required.
