TAKTILE: Off-Kilter Percussion


Organic and weird Percussion One-Shots created using Household Objects and more.

Give your Tracks some Organic Texture with these Samples.


Unique and high-quality percussion one shots made by banging on, and/or shaking household items and percussive instruments. All for free and available as a convenient MPC Expansion as well.

I’ve always had a thing for percussion samples and constantly try and get usable sounds out of anything I can find around the house. This free pack comes with over 70 one shots from both traditional percussive instruments and household items. For MPC users I’ve also turned this pack into an MPC Expansion complete with a drum kit that brings together all samples with several round robins! This expansion can also be used in AKAI’s free MPC Beats software.

These samples were recorded in 24 Bit / 44.1 kHz using a Neumann TLM103 microphone (known for its ultra-low noise floor) and pristine Antelope Audio converters. Apart from normalization, only minimal processing has been used to make these sounds endlessly tweakable.

About me


Hi there! My name is Chris and I'm a sound designer and audio mixing & mastering engineer based in scenic mountain region of Berkshire County, Massachusetts. While my background has been performing and recording music, it was the process of creating my first ever musical sample pack, Low'n'Slow, that truly made me fall in love with sound design in 2019.

Since then, I've started designing sound effects for video games, sampled rare synthesizers and drum machines, turned field recordings into contemporary hip hop drum kits, and created loops for fellow producers to use. During the course of the pandemic, I realized creating sounds for film and games was something I really wanted to pursue and while working towards that goal, I also started creating sound libraries for fellow sound professionals, video editors, and multimedia artists.

I strive to provide uncompromising, meticulously captured high-quality audio assets at an affordable price and help creatives at all stages of their career find the right colors for their sonic palette. My Blog also provides insight into my process, and my gear page highlights what equipment I use to create these libraries.
