FAQ

HelloSamples has been clearly a beatmaker focused place, but we are sampler fanatics, synth addicts, Rhodes lovers, CV explorators… So, everyone interested in electronic music experimentation is invited to take a trip and explore our site!

This adventure began back in 2010 when we started up a blog focusing on MPC kits. With a basic web design knowledge we started to build the site and the beta version site began to run. Soon we added versions for Maschine, Ableton and finally we came with our first PREMIUM libraries.

Today we are proud to say we have brought more than 100,000 free downloads for you, several Premium Kits for Maschine, Ableton, MPC, presets for the Moog Sub 37, TE OP-1... but this is just the beginning.

Since we are just a few musical geeks running this humble project, we ask you to support us by spreading our work in your social networks. Just share and download. Easy!

Yes indeed! HelloSamples offers a Creative Commons BY-SA license for ALL the FREE STUFF. This license lets others remix, tweak, and build upon our work even for commercial purposes, as long as they credit us and license their new creations under the identical terms.

This license is often compared to “copyleft” free and open source software licenses.All new works based on our will carry the same license, so any derivatives will also allow commercial use.

HelloSamples is the owner and master licenser of all the products for sale on www.hellosamples.com. Purchasing any of these products gives you a lifetime, non-exclusive right to incorporate the sounds in any musical production.

You may not distribute these products, either in native or reformatted for use as samples, multi-samples, programs or patches in a sampler, sample playback unit, website or computer.

Finally, understand that this is a very little company. We balance this handicap putting a lot of efforts and love in what we do. Uploading our PREMIUM sound libraries to cloud storage services and spreading the links in warez communities is a way to slow down our work and discourage us to continue doing it. We hope you'll understand.

We normally bring kits pre programmed for Akai MPC samplers, Native Instruments Maschine, and Ableton Live packs. Our Premium Sounds are usually delivered in 44.100Hz – 24Bits. The free samples are usually in 44.100hz – 16 bits so you can import them wherever you want, even if it’s a hardware sampler or soft sampler…
Since January 1, 2015 changes have been made to the VAT policies (value-added tax) in the European Union. Before 2015, VAT was based on the location of the business, but now it will be based on the location of the customer.
Corrupt external hard drives, dropping milk over your computer... we've all lost files in some point of our lives. nSince there's an expiration date set to all download links, you can send us a message through our contact form with your purchase e-mail address, and we'll provide you with new download links right away so you can keep on making beats!
