Melon Baller = hi hat

I sampled a variety of kitchen items as examples in my Skillshare course. Here they are!

While building my Skillshare class on iPhone sampling, I recorded the melon baller shown in the picture above. It became a pretty usable hi hat!


Come on back every Friday for new downloads containing 2 components each: an original, unprocessed recording of some non-musical thing; and a GarageBand for iOS project containing the Sampler instrument(s) that I’ve made with that recording.

Want to learn how to do this yourself? Check out my Skillshare class on turning found sounds into instruments using just your iPhone. If you sign up, you’ll get a free month of membership!
