Broken sample links are now working again.

I mentioned in the last post that some of the sample packs on Voltage-Controlled were hosted on the file sharing site MegaUpload. As MegaUpload was recently shut down the samples were made unavailable for you guys to download.

I've just finished re-uploading the lost sample packs to minus.com and they are once again available for you to download free of charge. The sample packs that I've had to re-upload are:

• Voltage controlled sample collection vol.1
• Free FoundSound percussion loops and one shots
• Punished 909 kit (MC-303)

Luckily I haven't been using MegaUpload for long so only three of the packs were lost but it's still a bit of a hassle have to re-upload them.

Just to make it clear, all of the samples available from Voltage-Controlled are copyright free. I created them so that musicians, sound designers, film makers, etc. can use them in their productions and creations for free of charge.

If you have any other questions or problems then please get in touch with me at DanWeatherall@Voltage-Controlled.com

Shakie - Pellet Percussion for iPhone & iPod Touch

The beauty of Shakie lies in its simplicity. You’re not confronted with endless menus and settings; it does what you expect it to do. It’s a percussion instrument for your iPhone or iPod touch that’s controlled using the accelerometers and gyroscope that are built into your iDevice.

Shakie relies on a realistic physics engine, when you tilt or shake your iDevice the on-screen pallets will respond and trigger a number of samples. This gives the app a really natural feel and makes playing really fun.

The UI consists of just three pages: the main shaker page, the menu page and the info page. Everything is clean, simple and ready for you to pick up and play.

The app comes with 10 high quality built in sounds:

• Bells
• Castanet
• Chimes
• Maraca
• Rattle
• Shaker
• Shaker Dry
• Shaker Gritty
• Spoons
• Tamborine

Free hand played percussion loops

This pack contains 10 hand played percussion loops in .Wav format.
I'm not saying I'm the best percussionist in the world but I played these percussion loops myself.
These loops are an ideal way to give your track a little bit of human feeling.

All loops are played at 120 bpm.

Happy music making and be sure to check back for future updates and more free samples. =]
