@ArtistSynth Makes sense! What kind of stuff do you usually look for?

@etherdiver depends of what I need. most of the time I need sounds like swords or that stuff to make SFx to games, sometimes just claps...

@etherdiver I sometimes use the free Music Radar samples packs, mainly for drums and sound effects, then I'll usually snip sounds and spoken word stuff from films, TV, news, documentaries and YouTube, anything really. I've used an online text-to-voice generator when I've wanted more control over what I want. Haven't done any foley stuff yet, I've not exhausted everything just yet.

@etherdiver Oh, and I've snipped a couple of samples from some old video games, haven't worked with those yet.

@etherdiver Honestly, I'm pretty omnivorous. Drum loops, individual hits, weird textures, long atmospheric sounds, field recordings, vocal samples, wavetables, multisamples, you name it, it's probably been in my music somewhere.
I will say that I have been using more multisamples lately, they tend to give me a really solid launching point with a lot of range. E.g. yesterday's jamuary techno track used a bunch of "from mars" multisamples of old soviet synths that I further mangled up.

@etherdiver @elsemusic I like loops, and single hits. Bass licks and riffs, pad chords, and environmental #sfx (water, waves, rain, rivers, streams, etc). #SamplesFromMars #FileEffects and travelogue recordings from #FreeToUseSounds - https://ftus.gumroad.com/l/allinonebundle

Self recorded stuff. Weird sounds and field recordings. Mangled and manipulated. -

@etherdiver Field recordings, now that I've accepted that "samples" is widely interpreted to mean "snippets of other people's music."
I record some myself, but have also built up a collection drawn mostly from asoundeffect.com.
What kind of thing? Mechanical sounds, mostly. When I first heard the term "industrial music", I took it literally. I'm still smitten with the idea.

I used to always do sound design from scratch because I found working with samples tedious and difficult, but I've come to appreciate them over the past couple of months, especially with old Jungle sample packs, but also vocal synthesis and field recordings -

@etherdiver
Drum kits definitely. I usually want natural sounding drums. I wish I had a drum kit, but alas, I have to make do with sample packs.Weird SFX are divided into two types - weird digital effects I try to play with synths to create my own. Weird recordings (bird chatter, ocean surf, explosions) I either go for samples, or I find a way to record them myself.
Regarding pads, do virtual instruments that are based on samples count?

@etherdiver Weird FX, field recordings, sometimes drum loops and most of all I am looking for acapellas.

@etherdiver If I need sound FX or background ambience, I often go to freesound.org. Sometimes I take odd moments from films that aren't music but have a musical feel to them. Everything else I make myself.

@etherdiver Thinking on this more today, I guess I would add that the one thing I *don't* generally use is clips of other ppl's songs, as A) seems like a huge can of worms in terms of copyright, and B) While I can appreciate the work of artists who do this well, I'm looking for individual lego bricks, not fully built sets, if that metaphor makes sense.

@etherdiver i use drumsamples.. but i have mostly what i could ever utilize.
so from time to time i download vocals, specific noises from devices , animals or enviromental stuff. Freesound.org or ubuweb are great places for that -

@etherdiver are you asking because you are considering using samples or considering releasing sample packs?
