Online Free Samples?

Online Free Samples?

2005-09-29 by Mark Falchook

Greetings,

Though I've had logic for years, I've only started making use of EXS
recently, thanks to my new G5. Out of curiousity, are their any sources of
free online samples for EXS? Any "mother lodes" I should be aware of?

Thanks,
-Mark

Don't forget the EXS will import soundfonts as well.
A good place to start looking for them:
www.hammersound.net - has gazillions.

Hi Sascha, I have the ns_bass sound which is a .sf2 file and it works
fine. After visiting www.hammersound.net and downloading a bass which
is a .sf2 file compressed into a .rar format which opened with no
problem, I placed it in the exs sample instrument folder as directed
and the exs does not see it. Any suggestions. I'm on Logic 6.4.3. and
have been told to get Logic Pro 7 but I'm not going to do that. Will
soundfonts work with my system? What's up with soundfonts that some do
and some don't work? Thanks Wayne

This is really quite a long list!  If anyone actually has the time to  
go through all of that looking for good, useful sounds it would be  
super cool if they share best of lists for each type of sound...

I agree; isn't there some list of well known "must-haves"? There seem
to be so many less-than-professional soundfonts out there, and no way
to weed out the good from the bad, other than downloading and
installing so many of them.

Regards,

Move to quarantaine

This moves the raw source file on disk only. The archive index is not changed automatically, so you still need to run a manual refresh afterward.
