I'm currently working on making a lot of new snare samples for a sample pack and figured this would be a good moment to show how I would start a project like that.

In this video I show you the full process of setting up a sound design template for making loads of snares. Setting up such a template is a bit of work (hence the almost 2 hours long session), but when you are done with the template it will be a piece of cake to make more samples quickly.

Since this one is unedited there is no Patreon shoutout at the end of this one, but I seriously couldn't be bothered doing a 2 hour long video render just to add the Patreon shoutouts and nothing else, I wanted this video to be out quicker instead.

Next one will be shorter again I promise haha.

Cheers,
ARTFX

Everything you need to know about making DNB SNARES! (building a sound design template)

This is the third episode in a series of videos in which I take an in-depth look at making Drum & Bass drums. In this episode we will set up a template to design new snare samples quicker. I decided to upload the entire almost 2 hour long session, so you can see the whole process. 'A DEEP DIVE INTO DRUM & BASS DRUMS' playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLFF4GNypydQ3Y-GxMN1m08CpjraQdDJKc In the future I will keep adding more videos to this series so that eventually we will have a gigantic playlist of videos for people to watch if they want to learn everything about making drums for Drum and Bass. If you have any specific things you struggle with and you would like to see me do a video about the topic breaking it down, then leave a comment below and I'll add it to the list of ideas. If you liked this video, please take some time to leave a like (or dislike of course if you hated the video). Also if you have some extra time to spare, it would mean a lot if you could share this video with your producer friends to help me reach more people.
