Synclav Linndrum comprehensive sample library for Akai MPC range by INHALT

Hey everyone, thrilled to announce the release of the next INHALT sample library, Synclav Linndrum for the Akai MPC’s as well as any sampler that can read 96k/16 bit files. This one is very special and really captures the sound of the unique Synclavier PSMT STM A/D converter with a timeless drum machine. Full copy demo video below:

From professional sound designer Matia Simovich (Akai Pro, Roland, Sequential/Oberheim…) comes the latest sample library for the entire Akai MPC product range. Synclav Linndrum is a comprehensive 64 pad sample set of the legendary Linndrum drum machine sampled directly into a 1986 Synclavier PSMT sampling workstation.

The Synclavier features a discrete milspec A/D converter that samples at up to 100 kHz / 16 bit complete with an analog front end. The Linndrum was hooked up directly to this converter and all stock sounds, as well as additional Linn eproms (including the Tears for Fears Bell and Triangle eproms) were sampled directly to the Synclavier. Though the Synclavier saves audio files in a native format, this system is equipped with Synclavier3 software which allows for a direct conversion to wav files. No post processing was done on these samples and because the initial sampling was performed at 96 kHz / 16 bits, no additional dithering or sample rate conversion was used. As such, the resulting sound is the unmistakable extra large and punchy “vibe” of the Synclavier (a vibe that makes any sound recording the best it can be) imparted onto a complete Linndrum kit, directly off of the Synclavier hard disk.

While this library is formatted for the Akai MPC range, the samples themselves are 96 kHz / 16 bit mono wav files that can be loaded into any sampler such as Ableton Live drum rack, Logic Pro, or hardware samplers that can read wav files. For MPC users, 1 kit with sensical assignments of all samples (including mute groups) is included. This is an instant download.
