As on many forums out there such topic exists, I allowed myself to create similar one here too. I post it in off-topic as it applies to making music in general. Many of you might be looking for a fresh inspiration. I hope these links will be of some help:
- http://www.soundbible.com - the title tells it all
- http://www.freesound.org - a large repository of free (Creative Commons mainly) sounds. Sometimes weird, sometimes amazing. It's like a treasure chest or a candy shop 😄
- http://www.philharmonia.co.uk/explore/sound_samples - sampled instruments of London Philharmonic Orchestra
- https://www.lucidsamples.com - large amount (ca. 1GB) of free samples + good shop with electronic music dedicated sample packs
- https://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=42 - sample section of a great audio forum. Numerous topics with further list
- http://freemusicarchive.org/ whole free tunes/songs
- http://sampleswap.org/filebrowser-new.php?sid=ce21df4fd4b4a66258c1da2bb520dfa4 another sample repository
- https://samplefocus.com/ - pretty new, but already nice online sample library. Right now it is free, you can upload new and download existing samples there
I think that is it for now as far as I can remember. What are your sources of samples?
