Weekly Free Techno Sample Pack Week 40 - 2024

What's up, producer?

This is Week 40 of the year 2024.

Build like a tank with an equally solid sound: The Clavia Nord Drum is a percussion synthesizer that's become a cult favorite among techno producers and electronic music enthusiasts.

A Techno Producer's Secret Weapon

Introduced in 2012, the Nord Drum quickly gained a reputation for its robust build and innovative approach to drum synthesis2. This compact powerhouse offers four channels of analog modeling percussion, perfect for crafting those tight, punchy techno beats we all crave.

Why Techno Producers Love It

The Nord Drum's intuitive interface allows for hands-on tweaking, making it a dream for live performances and studio sessions alike. Each sound is built from three components - Tone, Click, and Noise - giving you the flexibility to create everything from realistic kicks to otherworldly percussive textures.

So, while you might not be able to get your hands on the real deal, you can still infuse your next techno banger with some of that Nord Drum power and magic. Time to fire up your DAW and start crafting those killer beats!

🧪Sample Pack Content

23x Nord Drum One-Shot hits (some raw, some processed)

Most of these impacts are reversed or chopped sounds ranging from percussion hits to super short vocal bits which are almost not recognizable as human voice, synths, and other material I found on my Octatrack. For a washed-out effect, nothing works better than a healthy portion of good old reverb. I've used the Ventris Dual Reverb by Source Audio which sounds super lush, dense, and silky.
