Source for Tran's timeless demos - Curiously better than Tran's other source releases. If you intend to figure out how it works, I suggest you start at line 127 of v.asm. Few comments, but excellent source.

Ugly, I have seen much better snow effects. This looks more like a buggy diagonal starfield.

C-- compiler,It's either a stripped down version of C or ASM on steriods. It was good and cool some time ago, but there are surely better development platforms available.

Released at event WIR94 in the demo division and ranked ??
N-Factor's first production, released at Wired'94 - a good "first-time" production for a new group. Lots of vector objects, some unlimited bobs, and textured planes - a top and bottom of the screen - but they are doing many things with this simple transform table: like really interesting flight of space ship over you (like in 2nd Reality), but textured (looks much-much better).

Tr-808 Patches For The Gus by Tek of OTM

These aren't samples from a true 808, they're from the RB-338. They do, however, sound REALLY close, are sampled at 44.1kHz/16bit, and sound a lot better than any of the other 808 patch sets I've heard. You may want to adjust the volumes a bit: they're all maximized. Included are kick, snare, clap, hihat (open and closed), crash cymbal, cowbell, and maracas. Sorry if you wanted the toms or congas or anything else, but I got lazy... Maybe I'll put those out soon.

Samples from TB Proteus 1/XR by Sam Eassa

This is the third of a series of samples extracted from the Turtle Beach Multisound Proteus 1/XR synthesizer. Whereas the first and second collections (proteus1.zip and proteus2.zip) were a collection of melodic as well as percussion samples at 22kHz/16 bits, this one is percussion only at 44.1kHz/16 bits. Based on some good feedback (thanks Jester :-) I kept all samples very basic (no combos or riffs) for maximum usefulness. The quality is also better due to the fact that the sampling was done locally on the multisound as opposed to using a seperate PC. This has yielded some very quiet and crisp samples compared to the first sets of samples. Although the samples are in .wav format, they can be ported to .smp or almost any other using a program such as Goldwave. All samples are 44.1kHz, 16 bit and were created by playing different percussion notes on the multisound, and capturing them live to RAM and then to disk. Post editing was done to optimize gain and remove the dead space.

This is the fourth and probably last in a series of samples extracted from the Turtle Beach Multisound Proteus 1/XR synthesizer. In this collection, I've tried to sample unique sounds native only to the proteus synthesizer and that cannot be found in the General MIDI set. I'm hoping to provide the means for the many composers out there to make some truly unique sounding mods. I kept all samples very basic (no combos or riffs) for maximum usefulness. The quality is also better due to the fact that the sampling was done locally on the multisound as opposed to using a seperate PC as was done on the first two Proteus packs. This has yielded some very quiet and crisp samples. Although the samples are in .wav format, they can be ported to .smp or almost any other using a program such as Goldwave. All samples are 44.1kHz, 16 bit mono and were created by playing different notes on the multisound, and capturing them live to disk using the Multisound's own digital audio sampler. Post editing was done to optimize gain and remove the dead space as well as to keep the samples reasonable small.

Oberheim Matrix 1000 Samples by Soundwave

This is yet another sample pack made for those with samplers and high-end trackers. 50 samples are in this pack, all coming from bank 0 (!) of the Oberheim Matrix 1000. The Oberheim Matrix 1000 is a nice little analog synthesizer with classic Oberheim sounds, for those who don't know. The samples were done on a Turtle Beach Tropez. Hopefully this provides a tad better audio quality than the Pro Audio Spectrum 16 (which in itself wasn't bad). Sorry, no loop points or envelopes are provided.
