Sound Borb - Audio Ambience Generating System - Free

Sound Borb is an audio ambience generating system. The generative nature of Sound Borb's audio engine means that once you hit play, the ambience you're listening to will never end. It will never go to the next track. It will never loop. If you want to listen to the ocean, you can listen to the ocean from now until your electricity goes out. Various ambiences are available for download on the download page, and you can also create your own and post them for download here, if you're so inclined.

Parameters are kept to a minimum, so as to make Sound Borb easy to use. Just load an ambience, and start listening. You can adjust the overall volume, the intensity (how much activity is occuring in the sound), and the happiness of the ambience. Or you can set the intensity and happiness parameters to auto, and sit back and listen.

Sound Borb is currently free to use non-commercially. Enjoy!

This driver allows you to host your real ASIO driver and add windows audio with
no additional latency. It allows you to use your ASIO driver from more than one
application with the inbuilt multi-client support, and you can even send ASIO audio
over the network. It was designed initally for me to be able to listen to and record
music from WDM (windows) audio into my ASIO host program (DAW) so I could play along
with my favourite mp3s!

-Route and mix WDM (windows) audio into ASIO inputs for the host program
-Route and mix WDM audio into ASIO drivers outputs
-Route and mix ASIO driver output to WDM stereo mix
-NEW in v1.4 Multi-client support allows use from more than one application

Ghosthack - Free Dubstep Samples

Ghosthack - a set of 100 free dubstep samples in 24-bit WAV format.

The included loops (the drum and percussion loops in particular) sound very good,
pretty much on par with the loops included in commercial dubstep sample libraries.
Even better than some of those.  Perhaps not everyone will like the fact that the
loops have already been processed (compression, eq, reverb), but even so they can be
very useful for things like layering or slicing. All included samples are available
in 24-bit WAV format, and the loops were recorded at 140BPM.

Ghosthack’s free dubstep sample pack includes the following sounds:

7 Kicks / Bassdrums
11 Basslines
11 Snares / Claps
12 FX Sounds
12 Hats
23 Drum Loops
17 Pads
7 Percussions

Sample Librarian

Sample Librarian, an invaluable tool for managing all of your audio samples and helping you home in on just the sounds you want when you're in the middle of creating your next hit. With Sample Librarian you no longer need to waste time navigating through deeply-nested folders of all your samples and sample CDs, which is a sure-fire way to lose your focus (and then the moment of inspiration has gone). Instead you can use a tool designed specifically for the purpose of managing and searching for audio samples. Once you've found the perfect sounds for your new song, simply drag-and-drop them directly into your DAW. Previously, breaking off from composing to go digging through your sample collection to find that elusive sample you know is in there (somewhere) could seriously interrupt your creative flow. With Sample Librarian, using your sample collection now forms a key part of your music-making process. Manage all of your samples in one place Add any number, even many thousands, of sample files (WAV, AIFF, REX*, MP1/2/3, OGG Vorbis, FLAC and WMA file formats are supported) and be able to search the library extremely quickly in a variety of different ways. Note: Although REX files can be imported and managed within Sample Librarian, they cannot be previewed within the application due to the proprietary nature of the ReCycle format.

Seven Suggestions While Mastering

Tips from the guide "Mastering with Ozone".


Before you jump into a marathon mastering session, here are seven things that are good to remind yourself of periodically:

1)  Have someone else master your mixes for you. OK,in most project studios we realize that the same person is often the performer, producer, mixer, and mastering
engineer. At least get someone else to listen with you. Or find someone who will
master your mixes if you master theirs. You’re too close to your own music. You’ll
hear things other listeners won’t hear, and you’ll miss things that everyone else does hear.

2)  Take breaks and listen to other CDs in between. Refresh your ears in terms of what other stuff sounds like. OK, the pros just instinctively know what sound they’re
working towards, but for the rest of us being reminded from time to time during the
process isn’t such a bad idea.

3)  Move your listening position. Studio reference monitors are very focused and
directional. The sound can change significantly depending on your listening position.
Shift around a bit. Stand across the room for a moment.

4)  Listen on other speakers and systems. Burn a CD with a few different variations and play it on your home stereo system, or drive around and listen to it in your car. Don’t obsess over the specific differences, but just remind yourself what other systems sound like.

5)  Check how it sounds in mono. Check how it sounds with the polarity inverted on one speaker. People will listen to it this way (although maybe not intentionally)
and while your master probably won’t sound great this way hopefully it won’t completely fall apart either. Ozone provides a quick check for this by clicking on the Channel Ops button. You can quickly switch to mono, switch left and right speakers, and flip the polarity of speakers.

6)  Monitor at normal volumes, but periodically check it at a higher volume. When you listen at low to medium volumes, you tend to hear more midrange (where the ear is most sensitive) and less of the lows and highs. This  is related to something called the Fletcher-Munson effect, which involves how different frequencies are heard differently depending on the playback volume. So check from time to time how it sounds at different volume levels.

7)  When you think you’re done, go to bed, and listen again the next morning.

MilkDrop

What is MilkDrop?


MilkDrop is a music-visualization "plug-in" for the Winamp music player. 
As you listen to music through Winamp, MilkDrop renders the soundwaves in a
visual feedback loop, driven by 3D graphics hardware, to create a
rich visual journey through sound.  MilkDrop can also be driven by a live
audio feed (microphone or line-in) - see the documentation for details.

MilkDrop 2 is a major upgrade to the original MilkDrop visualizer, opening up
the power of modern graphics chips and programmable pixel shaders to the realm
of music visualization.  Pixel shaders allow dozens, even hundreds of complex
instructions to be executed for every pixel on the screen, every frame. 
Other new features include jpg textures, gaussian blurring, a preset "mash-up"
feature, and a prest "back" button.  MilkDrop 2 is backwards-compatible with
presets from MilkDrop 1.
