When I mention sample packs, who do you think they’re made by? Are you picturing a male producer, busting out some beets in his LA studio? Just me? This week, Isobel speaks with composer / producer Neeta Sarl about her work making sample packs for major music software brands, like Ampify, and how you can get started using these powerful, creative tools in your own music too. The best bit? You can start on your phone and you DON’T have to be an expert.
