What is Soundsnap?

It was originally started by a small group of sound people from all over the world. Our common belief is that sounds and samples should be free for everyone to use in their projects, commercial or not.

Our users are a diverse mix of sound designers, sound artists, web game developers, filmmakers and music producers. Hobbyists and home video makers are welcome too.

What Soundsnap is NOT:

  • An alternative to Myspace, Limewire or BitTorrent.
  • A place to upload your band's songs or your favourite mp3's. Soundsnap is only for sound effects and loops.
  • A place you can upload or find sounds from commercial libraries. All sounds here are original- made or recorded by its users.

We encourage everyone to upload high quality sound FX and samples, helping us make every kind of sound available on Soundsnap.

We are looking for feedback from the community to constantly improve, and we depend on our users for that. So please feel free to leave a recommendation or feedback in the special section of our forum.

Hello--

I just got a Roland SPD-S sampling pad and I'm trying to figure out how to create different sub bass sounds. Do I need to music editing/production program for this?

Or is there a site or CD I can buy that has these type of samples. I'm looking to make electronica beats.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

Matt

I don't kow anything about

I don't kow anything about the Roland sampling pad but pitch bend on your synth/controller will do it, or alternatively, assign the synths mod envelope to the pitch control.

I haven't tried this but maybe an editing program like Soundforge will give results if you load in a lengthy bass sample and automate a pitch bend?

Hope this helps...:)
