where can i buy floppy disk samples?

By EarlGreenMusic Sat Jan 03, 2009 1:22 am
i need to get stuck into learning. ive learnt how to create my own floppy disks with mpcpgmmaker but it still takes a while especially if i want to put the right sounds on the right pads . does anyone know where i can buy amazing sounds all ready on floppy disk? theres so much junk out there.

mpc 2000

Thanks

ebay man,
or what you could do is create your own kits by just getting the samples from your computer by getting sample cds of different kits and just loading them on your disk

Placing your own samples is how you get your own sound, not by buying stuff that everyone has access to.
More satisfying when you have your own stuff.

And don't pay for sounds!


Try opening the floppy on your Computer, and if you can do that, try to put the files onthe floppy onto a fresh floppy, and it might work!
I did this, and it has worked for me before.

Pz!

Floppy is the way forward :P

Yes it's a VERY good idea to back-up all your floppies on PC and
it's very simple to do: just copy your MPC Floppy content to a folder on your PC.

I think having a library of drum machine samples is a good thing even if you have to buy them. They are good to layer with sampled stuff. I am all about sampling and being original but it does not hurt to have other peoples hard work at your disposal too :) . Use both.....

i've found it easier to look and find my own samples than buying kits that have sounds worth using.
