Having an extensive sound library is essential to productive and professional work flow, due to the fact that when inspiration hits, you want to be prepared with all the tools and building blocks you need to transfer what is in your head, into the D.A.W.

Sample packs are not cheating.

They are are tools to better your overall production and to spark creativity.

I can remember countless times where I had no direction, no idea of what song I was going to make – I simply started off with applying effects, time-stretching, or even looping a sample pack file like a vocal shot.

Before I knew it, a few hours later I had a very solid work in progress (WIP) that I could share with my producer friends to give feedback and direction on.

Without samples, creative inspiration would be a lot harder to come by.

CONCLUSION

Hopefully these sounds, samples, and presets we listed above

Keep experimenting.
