Hey?!! What?

I got back to making music yesterday after spending the majority of the morning tracking down whatever was causing a CPU spike in Cubase 4. (Turns out the MOTHERFUCKING COCKSUCKING PIECE OF SHIT DONGLE needs to be plugged in a USB2.0 slot or it causes spikes. What the fuck?)

In any event, what I rapidly discovered is that I have no sounds. I’m used to my large (around 25GB) sample library that I’ve made over the last 10-odd years being handy. As it no longer exists, I keep finding myself annoyed that I don’t have a sound I’m looking for. So I need to go get some sounds.

So, what’s your favorite bread-n-butter loop and sample site? Or loop CDs that don’t fucking blow. I don’t mind paying for shit, and I’ll even pay a lot, but what I don’t want is having to sift through tons of shit. Obviously, I have BFD and Guru, so most of my stock drum needs are taken care of. And the first person that mentions Freesound is getting their IP banned. That site is a nice concept, but a useless tragedy in execution.
