Please point me in the direction of some good sample packs Does NI's "Kontact" have a lot of these?

Cymbals there.

Bump. Looked up NI "Battery" might have to take the plunge...

Kontakt and Battery are just Samplers, but the samples that you get with them are very high quality, some of the best ive heard.

Do they both have built FX? any comments on them if they do?

any good Battery dubstep-friendly preset kits? (as a starting point)... ... not keen on the hiphop kit from what I've heard, but not tried mangling the samples on there yet?

cheers

Kontakt has built in inserts and sends, good for bass, and specific easy fix's, but you would be better off using your own 3rd party compressors and dynamics stuff. I do like the distortion on kontakt though, check out rotator, cabinet and the other one, cant remember the name.

Battery 3 has effects, not looked into it much though, but the beauty of it is, every cell has independent filters, envelopes and loop options ect. and you can load multiple samples to a cell, a layering dream.

thats my point...I use Battery all the time, but don't use preset kits... marching band/jazz/swing/orchestral/rock etc etc. I usually just make and layer/mangle my own kits, but wondered if anyone used any of the hundreds of preset kits as a starting point?

zildjian, sabian, paiste. grover for tambourines.

Vengeance, it's worth looking through the Percussion folders and sorting them out.
