my observation is, that most of Hardtrance sounds are just distorded or variously filtered, why don't you go with Vengeance club sounds and good distortion plugin, filter unit etc...

I believe you can make any sample harder with some tube saturation, good compression, filter, LFO...

you see?

Most of those club kicks in VEC are hard sounding..and would do well in hard trance i suppose.

If you're not keen on Vengeance-Sound, there is also http://www.vipzone-samples.com - but I would recommend Vengeance Sound 10x over VipZone.

VEC or Ueberschall Trance Techno sample CD
Also, Vengeance House is great, more gentle sounds, not so extremely booming and powerful.

I would not recommend uberschall at all. It's absolutly horrible.

u guys dont know anything besides vengeance, damn

for clean, high resolution, quality drum samples there is only one.

Thomas Penton - Essential Drums and Percussion Vol 1.

Take my word on it, get it and stop browsing and searching to ultimately get half decent samples.
This has all u need , neatly organized and ready to rock!!!
if u want the sample to be dirty there are zillions of distortion, bit reduction plugs u can use
cant believe u guys havent mentioned it?
are u holding things for u
hehe

I hate those Alphazone type samples They are all banging nasty composite samples.

Anyone know of a sample CD that just has some good old fashioned 909 single shots, straight from the drum machine itself? and well recorded? No effects. No vinyl rips. No shitty overprocessed composite sounds.

EDIT: Those Thomas Penton samples sound really good.

I agree 100% I love my Thomas Penton samples. I've got a ton of other sample CDs yet I find myself always going back to the best.

For trance/progressive/hard trance (more of the drums and percussion)... would you recommend VEC 1 or 2?
