Where to buy remix sets or something similar for Kontrol F1??
Hi on the hunt for some new sounds for the F1 if anybody has any ideas?? i like the way the remix sets are setup so u just have to drop into a deck but im guessing theres not much available??
Yeah not yet, I’m expecting NI to come up with a new revenue source though
Yeah - you’ll be glad when NI release some middle of the road sample packs/remix sets that absolutely EVERYONE will have.
Grab an audio editor and make your own.
I’m assuming you got the 1.4 (I think that’s the right number) GB of Remix Packs that Native Instruments released for free?
Any and all sample/loop packs that are available for purchase online. Lot of options out there, and too many to list with out know what style you’re looking for.
I think the selling point for these remix kits will be when you can buy a track and it comes with pre gridded loops and samples from that track plus some empty slots so I can add my own samples. It would be nice for some stuff and I might buy a few but I can’t really see paying more than 4.99 for a remix kit of a single track. I could also see mash up kits being sold as well . Maybe have it so you pick one song and it automatically recommends songs to mash up that are in key and close in BPM. Then it puts your selection in one tidy package and you drag that into a remix deck and get da bitchez.
He’s so smart (and hella-dreamy) 
I am currently building out my own loops using iMaschine.
When I saw the F1, my first thought was that producers would start selling “Remix Deck” versions of their tracks. That would be AWESOME.
Do it!
The 2 NI free Hip Hop remix sets totally suck.
I’m in the process of making some of my own. It’s not as hard as I thought it might be.
I’ve had that same idea for a long time now (even before the F1 was ever talked about). Instead of making full blown tracks with arrangements, make a little 2 to 4 bar “loops” and then sell that. So now people can take those and work them however they want into their DJ set/Live PA/Original tracks/remixes and so on.
Ive got all the sets you can get from NI for free,there ok but thinking if you wanna take the F1 seriously its definetly given me an excuse to buy a Maschine Mirko. Do any of u guys own one and would it be good for making loops and samples??? from what ive seen it looks perfect but never tried one.
What I’d like to know is where we stand, legally speaking, by sharing “remix sets” with other F1 users. So for example, if I create a remix set of a copyrighted tune that contains say 16 loops from the original track, can we share this online? It doesn’t contain the original full length mp3 so is essentially just a file containing a collection of small samples.
So what would happen if I created the remix set from a preview file I downloaded from the artists website or soundcloud? This preview file is being given away by the artist so what’s the issue with re-purposing it into a remix set?
I think there’s a bit of a grey area here personally… where do you draw the line? it’ll be interesting to see how this all pans out… especially once labels/artists start releasing the remix sets themselves.
The remix sets haven’t changed the copyright law so you still can’t share a tune that you couldn’t share before. However if it’s an original track you can build a remix set and share it.
“original track” meaning some music you’ve created yourself?
Yes, if you as a producer make a track available with parts specifically geared towards remix decks.
I have made a site, www.remixdeckset.com, where I you can share and upload your own sets and I am working on creating some of my own and working with labels to put some original remix decks up for download. Let me know what you think! Thanks!
Curious to see how this website plays out
If any one has remix deck sets to share. Please upload at the site or contact me. Happy to help the community!!!
I just uploaded a nice, albeit smallish, Complextro remix set to your site. It is in the key of G and is 128bpm. I uploaded it under the same name/email I use here. Let me know if its alright!!
