EXS 24 Logic Sampler Users Group

Hello All,

I've posted a FREE set of Suspended Slate Rocks (10 mb) for the EXS  
24 at the Bolder website. This is a demo version of the full version  
which is 140 mb.

Also posted are a couple of mp3 demos, one with narration explaining  
how I approached the process of sampling and programming these slate  
rocks.

Have fun!
Dennis

How were the rocks suspended? Did you drill holes in them or what?

It sounds excellent: fine job - thanks.

Yes. I drilled holes in the top of each rock (the top being where  
ever I determined it would be) and then strung fishing line through  
them.
I then ran a laundry line across my studio connected to some pipes on  
each side of the room.

I struck the slates with a rubber mallet, the stick end of the mallet  
as well as the flesh of my hand in different areas of the slate rocks  
which produces different colors. I have a pile of 15 of these things  
sitting in my basement of all different sizes (I ended up using 7 of  
them for this set). I'd like to do another sampling of them some day  
with a slightly different approach when I have time. I'm happy you  
like them!
