The Best Old School Samples FOR YOUR PROJECT

What are old school samples?

Old school samples are the sonic DNA of countless hits—think dusty drum breaks, soulful vocal runs, and jazzy chords pulled from vintage vinyl. They come with built-in character: the warmth, the crackle, the vibe that you just can't fake. For us, these aren't just relics; they're powerful ingredients you can chop, flip, and process to give your own music a serious dose of texture and history.

Co-Producer taps into our massive Arcade library, giving you instant access to a deep collection of royalty-free, musician-made sounds. Our AI finds the perfect fit for your track, whether you need gritty synth stabs, classic funk basslines, or any other old samples to build on.

What is Output Co-Producer?

How does Co-Producer work with various types of old school samples?

Co-Producer analyzes your track’s harmony and rhythm to find complementary, royalty-free old school samples from our library, matched to your key and tempo. And no, it doesn’t train on your audio—all our sounds are handcrafted by our own expert sound designers.

What’s included in Co-Producer apart from old school samples?

You get our entire Arcade library—a bottomless pit of royalty-free sounds that goes way beyond dusty breaks. For the whole shebang, upgrade to Output One to add all our FX plugins like Portal and Thermal, plus every expansion we drop, to your setup.

Are these copyright and royalty free old school samples?

Yes, every sound in our library, including all the dusty breaks and soulful chops you find, is 100% royalty-free. We clear everything, so you can use them in your commercial releases without a second thought. Go make some hits.

Why does Co-Producer go on my master track?

For Co-Producer to work, it needs to hear your whole track. Place it on the master bus or main output so it can analyze the audio and serve up the best-fitting samples from our library. It requires active audio input to do its job, so press play.
