Spitfire Audio have a free drum kit sample pack up till 3rd Jan but maybe more importantly they have a UNICEF fundraiser too:

An indian banjo, wonky wurlitzer and a frame drum up for grabs for £2 donation each. You need Kontakt though (so not for me unfortunately).

A big thank you to rekkerd.org for pointing us to these additional freebies!!!

For Mac users:

An update to the free MiniSpillage Drum Synthesizer from Audio Damage - http://www.audiospillage.com/en/mini...drum-synth.php

For PC users:

A refurbished free synth from Krakli "RMPx" - http://www.krakli.com/the-krakli-blo...akli-fans.html

For Mac & PC:

From Darrell Barrell - "DtBlkFx" - http://rekkerd.org/dtblkfx/
"This effect works differently to most others – instead of filtering or distorting audio data directly, it finds the frequency spectrum via a fast-fourier-transform and then does stuff to that."

Thanks for the topic ho66it! Cool to see the Radar synth mentioned, as I can also be found hanging out at Music-Society now and then ;)
If you like things that are good at making strange noises, you might enjoy playing with any of the three freebies offered by Wolfgang Schweizer here. Just scroll down a bit to find them.
They're all similarly structured, and they might not be the result of years of experience and refinement, but I enjoy them, and the rest of the man's music, art and jewelry is pretty darn cool too- a regular Renaissance man, is Herr Schweizer!
