Hello dear friends,
I’m super excited, as I'm about to launch my new website/project next week as the electronic musician LeSynth. While I will be releasing albums of new music throughout the year, I have decided to sample my hardware synths and give away a new instrument in my Blog page every weekday for most of the year!
I am limiting myself to the Logic Sampler instrument format, but if anyone wishes to volunteer to convert them to Kontakt, I would gladly share that version as well. The Sampler instruments will be simple: as I’m not a programmer, I settled for a raw, direct sound. The good news is that many feature sampling for every semitone, up to 4 octaves, up to 8 RR, looped sustains, etc. You will have to use your own FX, as the Sampler doesn’t have reverb/delay, etc.
January will feature 5 categories of synths, one for each weekday: Basses, Leads, Pads, Modular and FX (as in non-traditional synth sounds, not sound design FX). Since I’ve been a member here since the very beginning, I thought it only made sense that you, my community, should have a first go at these. And so I have a special link that will not last past the first week of January for you to access ahead of time, and that features all 5 of the first week’s offerings.
The instruments I sampled (which you can see in the pic above!):
Square But Nice Bass - miniKORG FS (recent version)
A Chorus Line Lead - miniKORG FS (recent version)
Not So Krell Modular - modular synth featuring Braids, Instruo Ts-L, Grids, MATHS, etc
Doing The Wave Pad - Hydrasynth + Juno 106
Paft Dunk FX - EMS Synthi AKS
They are compressed as Zip files. Please take a second to read one of the Read Me’s (very short) for installation info, and do let me know if you have any issues!! :

Here is a short demo I put together so you can judge if they're for you. Only the drums and claps are not from this set of instruments. I make extensive use of the modwheel to filter some of the instruments:
