MusicTech Magazine Sample CDs

[1DJ666]

I have a fair few of these now, what programs do I use for them?

[JonnyB]

can you give me a link to them? like to show me the specs, i havnt heard of them

but if they are just simple wav files you should be able to use them with any DAW or any software man

what do you want to use them for?

[Mitch]

if your talking about sample packs, they are just audio files, you can use them with any software you wish

[1DJ666]

I know they are sample packs, I just need to know will they work with VDJ and Traktor and how to import them.

[Mitch]

just copy them from the cd to a folder on your computer and import them like you would any other song you have and it should work fine man.

they would probably work better in traktor than vdj as you can enable sample decks in traktor

I will try mate

[yizzle]

mitch has pretty much said it. thats prob the best advice you will get.

my mate buys a lot of music mags and hands me off the CD's once he has used them. i do exactly what mitch said

just copy them from the cd to a folder on your computer and import them like you would any other song you have and it should work fine man.

I just tried and can't a folder for Tracktor to put these samples/effects in. BTW I have Traktor 2 LE.

[Mitch]

(presuming you use windows) just go start -> music. Make a folder in there called "MusicTech CD Samples" (or whatever you want to call it really)

Now open the CD, find the samples on the cd and copy them to the "MusicTech CD Samples" folder you just made.

Now when you open traktor you should be able to browse to your music folder, then the musictech folder will be in there

[1DJ666]

So don't I put them into sub-folders for Traktor? Will Traktor remember the folder if I do it your way? Sorry for all the n00bish questions.

[Mitch]

yer man you needa copy them onto a folder on the comp like i just explained, then you can browse to them in traktor and add them all to a playlist if you wish

[1DJ666]

OK cool thanx Mitch!
