    Default How much do you spend on Loops, Samples, and Presets?

    Hey Everyone,

    I'm currently working on a research project at school and need to find out how much money producers spend on Loops, Samples, and Presets in total per year. It doesn't matter whether they are bought individually, or in packs. Feel free to post your favourite vendors as well eg: Loopmaster, etc..

    A. I don’t buy or download any
    B. I only download free content
    C. 1-40 dollars per year
    D. 40-100 dollars per year
    E. Over 100 dollars per year


    Just to clarify:

    Loops: Individual Loops, Loop Packs, Traktor Remix Sets etc
    Samples: Sample Libraries/Packs, Sample based instruments (Kontakt), Maschine/MPC Expansion Packs or similar
    Presets: Presets for software synthesizers and effects (Absynth, Massive etc)

    The poll does not include:
    - Vinyls
    - Presets for hardware instruments
    - Songs or Albums

    Anyhow, I'm super grateful for your input and feedback!

    not a penny.. Loops and samples should be made by yourself.. Presets. Even worse lol


    Only thing some people would pay for is remix deck pack.. but with it being a remix pack of a couple songs.

    Can you point me towards the right direction please? I looked under "additional options" but couldn't find anything.
