For now I have decided to make presets for all synths AND for all the collection of drum sounds seperated in categories. No kits. The #SamplesFromMars drum samples are often devided into folders per drum type and recording method, so you have 15-20 clean kick samples from the 808, 15-20 modded and 10-20 re-sampled version fx. I organize with one type of sound and one recording approach per preset. Easy to navigate with search and scroll.

With my new presets in #Bitwig my workflow for opening a bunch of kicks collected in a preset would be:
press B (open pop-up browser), search for “sa” (for sampler), press enter twice, press B (open pop-up browser in presets), search “sfm” (for Samples From Mars) and BD (for base drum). Tap a midi controller for checking the samples, press down for a new preset etc…
I have never had a faster workflow for browsing sounds.

My main purpose of doing this, is because I often prefer using samples (synth, instruments and drums) over software instruments.
There is nothing wrong with software instruments, but the original synth re-sampled through a 12-bit hardware sampler, is a sound I can’t really mimic in the box, and I like that sound. I grew up listening to a lot of hip hop, so it all feels very natural.

It’s easy to see already, that this will be a huge quality of life improvement when in production. The time you spend sharpening your tools are not wasted.
Searching for keywords and tags is SOO fast in #Bitwig, and when you import everything manually, you get to both know what’s in your sample collection and make sure to choose keywords and tags that actually fits with the sample collection.
Browsing samples will be such a joy.

Manually importing samples into the #Bitwig sampler, to create your own searchable presets, takes A LOT of time. The sampler is doing a great job organizing the samples automatically, but you have to split up layers yourself and make groups to structure and organize these layers (like L/R or velocity). I used the SFZ files from #SamplesFromMars a bit, but it’s better/easier to just drag and drop the samples and be in control of how they are imported.

#ElectronicMusic producers might want to take note of the latest #LoFiDrumMachines release from #SamplesFromMars I do wish they prepared #BitwigStudio #DrumMachine device presets, but it is really not all that hard to do for yourself.

Hey @LinuxAudio
Are some of you using the Samples From Mars synth libraries and mainly the libraries with one sample per key? (Or other libraries with one sample per key, meaning a lot of samples).
And if yes, have you found a semi automated way to import the samples in a sampler?

@etherdiver @elsemusic I like loops, and single hits. Bass licks and riffs, pad chords, and environmental #sfx (water, waves, rain, rivers, streams, etc). #SamplesFromMars #FileEffects and travelogue recordings from #FreeToUseSounds - https://ftus.gumroad.com/l/allinonebundle

I bought myself a #BlackFriday special of the 2025 #SamplesFromMars items. I really like how these enthusiasts are using historic gear and are producing vinyl and tape #music archives to then resample and offer as part of their packs. There are some sweet sounds in there. They are fun for working with in #BitwigStudio for #ElectronicMusicProduction and possibly in the search for #BonkWave and #NotBonkWave sounds.

@NewSunRising @futzle does #SamplesFromMars fit the bill? Price wise I think they do. Accessibility? I hope so.

@mosgaard #SamplesFromMars is the only sample library I’ve maintained and bought during this century. They are fantastic.

My latest jammm, hanging out on the rail overbridge next to #Brunswick Pools. I’m playing with a #Wasp sample pack from #SamplesFromMars on my #SynthstromDeluge. The multisample capability is insane!!
