the first 12 packs, combined they have 1189 samples (406
MB).

Pack 10, November 2021
This pack includes 4 different collections. In addition to the wav files, it has 34 instruments and 1 multi for Native Instruments Kontakt 3.5 and 9 sfz definition files.
- Black Swan bell: small handbell recorded and processed through a Nintendo DSi, guaranteed LoFi!
- Cheap Bells: Two handbells bought at a dollar store for the Holidays. Contrary to the Black Swan bell, it's the bells that are cheap not the recordings. Includes single hits and hand ringings.
- Honks: Samples made with 2 different vehicle horns, 17 honks with or without the sound of the air pump release and 3 "air" samples. The air pump release can easily be trimmed if you don't want it, as I did with Honk 14 that has the 2 versions. This pack also contains some Kontakt 3 mappings and processing including random pitch variations and 4 melodic Honks.
- Spindle Chair: Collection of samples made by hitting the spindles of a wooden chair with a drum stick. Was recorded simultaneously in stereo and mono with 2 different recorders. Thus both sets of samples sound different. There are 19 patterns and 16 single hits, the hits are NOT extracted from the patterns. Kontakt 3 mapping of the single hits has the Harp Glissando script in the performance view. The patterns are not mapped.

The source videos are old and the sound quality is not the best. Contrary to the Memory Collection packs, the samples are not classified in folders. All have the same narrator with various background musics. 68 samples (53.4 MB)
___________________________________________________________________
Pack 15, April 2022
A special treat for this pack, some of the very first sounds I released commercially!
This was back in 2003 on the original of the Sound Effects Library. They were never available on my website and as the original SFX lib ceased its operations in 2015, they have not been available since. In fact I had kind of forgotten them and when I wanted to listen to them, I had to search through my backup CD’s.
I found some great loops and SFX and they are included in this pack, basic vibe is SciFi. Some of the sounds were the basis for later sets, like the jawharp and vocoder samples that led to the creation of the Out There sample set.
- 13 unique loops, great starting points for unusual ambiences!
- 6 jawharp samples
- 6 vocoder (MicroKorg) samples.
- And synth SciFi SFXs!
Total of 53 samples (93.7 MB) including 10 previously unreleased ones. Most samples are stereo.
Wav files and a Koala Sampler kit of 16 samples with 3 sequences.
___________________________________________________________________
Pack 16, May 2022
Samples are from the first half of an episode of the 1950's Robin Hood TV show, the one in which he helps Queen Eleanor.
83 samples (28.7 MB), like all the Memory Collection packs, the samples are classified in folders and they include voice/spoken word/dialogs, sfx/foley and music.
- SFX Plus : sound effects, music and everything that is not specifically a speech sample
___________________________________________________________________
Pack 17, June 2022
Samples from the second part of the Robin Hood episode above.
76 samples (58,4 MB).
All new samples and NOT part of any other Memory Collection pack.
___________________________________________________________________
Pack 18, July 2022
Two different sets in this pack (number 18).
1 - Recordings of a small triangle with 9 natural samples and 26 stretched and pitched down versions to create deep low tones and strange ambiences.
2 - As you may have seen, I released 2 free kits for Fred Anton Corverst Drumkit app.
Drumkit voices combines a drum synth and a sample player. The sample player has several controls to modify the playback of the samples. This means that the sound heard for each voice can be quite different (or not) from the source sample.
To better illustrate this, I have sampled FAC Drumkit’s output and you will find in this pack the 16 sampled voices for each kit and their respective original samples so they can easily be compared. They both have the same names except that the sampled voices have “FAC” at the end of their names, like this:
Sampled voice: 01_vocalfx_1_FAC.wav
Original sample: 01_vocalfx_1.WAV
So you can enjoy the sounds even if you do not own FAC Drumkit, and if you do, the kits are freely available on PatchStorage:
https://patchstorage.com/platform/fac-drumkit/
99 samples (41 MB), three samples are duplicates because they were used more than once in the kits. So there are 96 unique samples.
___________________________________________________________________
Pack 19, August 2022
Sounds from recordings I made of acoustic sources, no synths or computer generated sounds!
Most are stereo and some have pitched down and/or stretched versions as sound manipulation examples. All are previously unreleased.
Objects sampled are two alarm clocks (names beginning with c), a wooden frog percussion instrument, a flashlight that is recharged with a crank, a furnace grate and a kind of toy that produces bouncy hits!
Many samples are long and can be trimmed and edited to create shorter hits suitable for sequencing and kit creation.
A small but punchy collection of unusual SFX, ambient hits and dramatic noises.
Total of 68 wav files (82 MB).
___________________________________________________________________
Pack 20, September 2022
Samples are from 10 vintage TV ads part of the Prelinger Archives.
The 2 calculator ads are probably from the 70’s, the 4 toothpaste and the 4 shampoo ones are from the 50’s and early 60’s.
Note that the toothpaste and shampoo ads are full of the stereotypes of their time in the USA. Meaning married women do not work, stay at home and take care of the kids.
My Memory Collection disclaimer is even more true here:
"Some samples may reflect stereotypes and prejudice of their times and original creators. They may express racial prejudice, sexism, social stereotypes, ignorance and/or poor knowledge of other cultures (for instance accents that are deemed insulting today).
The views and opinions expressed in these are those of their original creators and do not reflect my opinions."
But they're fun to use in absurd context like I did in this short video example.
Pack has 60 samples (20 MB)
_____________________________________________________________________
Pack 21, October 2022
Halloween special pack for this month!

Even if the Memory Collection samples are also available in their respective packs, this is a special Halloween selection!
The original samples are from 2 sources. First an ambient track I made in 2002 and the others are heavily processed vocoder (MicroKorg) samples of my voice. Included formats are wav, Battery 3 kits, Kontakt 3 instruments and soundfont. These and the included and brand new elf-audio Koala kit used in the video demo are not available anywhere else.
Pack has 106 samples (29 MB)

Pack 22, November 2022

Bicycle Bells
4 summery bicycle bells. It contains 71 samples (40.8 MB) in two folders.
The first one named "natural" contains the original 44 samples. For the sounds with "mute" or "rattle" in their name, I was touching a bit the bell to prevent it from ringing fully.

Five bike horn samples are also in the first folder, more will be released soon!

Bicycle Bells
4 summery bicycle bells. It contains 71 samples (40.8 MB) in two folders.
The first one named "natural" contains the original 44 samples. For the sounds with "mute" or "rattle" in their name, I was touching a bit the bell to prevent it from ringing fully.
The second one, named "transformed", features 27 pitched down and stretched samples. Some are heavily processed to create extreme sonic textures. They are examples I made to encourage you to further experiment.
Five bike horn samples are also in the first folder, more will be released soon!
