- Soft: lower level, slightly rolled-off highs and lows.
- Hard: increased transient, slight saturation, boosted presence bands.
But let’s be honest—dragging a dusty MP3 from YouTube into your DAW in 2024 isn't going to cut it. You lose the punch, the stereo width, and the transient clarity.

14) Final EQ, dynamics and loudness
- Apply gentle bus compression or glue (2:1 ratio, 1–3 dB gain reduction) only if grouping samples that will be used together as a kit.
- Use linear-phase EQ to fix any resonances; avoid over-processing pre-export.
- Maintain headroom: peaks < -0.5 dBFS; prefer -1 to -3 dBFS full-scale headroom.
- Export samples in 24-bit float or 32-bit float WAV if supported; for SF2 conversion you’ll need 16-bit or 24-bit PCM—export 24-bit if possible and let the SF2 tool convert.
