You can search for samples by key, genre, and tempo. I use splice find samples, backup my sets, and enter remix competitions. Many of my songs start here, and the workflow is very close to what I teach in my workshops. Captain Plugins – these plugins are amazing for getting a quick sketch down with matching chords, bass, and melody.Cost: $20-$250, they run sales periodically. Finally, if I want something glitchy I’ll bounce it to audio and mess around with the final clip. I experiment with different Groove Monkee MIDI patterns and adjust notes to taste. Here’s my general workflow: I have a 128 drum rack that is filled with royalty free percussive samples I can quickly cycle through using knobs on my MIDI controller. It features over 34,000 royalty free drum loops and fills across a dozen different genres.

I purchased their Mega Pack some years ago. Groove Monkee is particularly nice because their clips are not quantized they have a “human feel.” It’s easy to quantize them more if you want to, but it’s harder to humanize something after the fact.
