Where do you get your loops and samples from?

Hi guys,

Im new to this forum and new to music production. I bought a novation launchpad today and im very please with the product so far. Now im wondering as to where to get some good loops and samples from. Im mostly interested in Dance/Techno/Dubstep. I looked at primeloops little pricy but looks good still. Hope to hear some feedback on this!

Happy Holidays btw

I just loop/sample songs that are already in my library but would be interested to know about direct loop/sample sources

You can always make your own.

i make my own. never really ventured into buying any. maybe since you are just starting out, learn to make some of your own or use the ones that come with your software!

I probably wouldn’t look into buying loops until you need a certain one or maybe get inspired by a certain sound. good luck!

90% of the samples I use are grabbed out of songs I’m playing. The rest are the free ones that come with Traktor or given away by the big sample stores.

As to making my own, i am using ableton live 8. And im having a hard time to making my loops. Any one got any tips on how to split a song? Or any have a good tutorial that they know of?

I never use loops and use free sample packs (only the very best of course there is a lot of crap out there)
