anyone know any downloadable instrument sample sites.. any format or price?

i'd rather download something then wait for a cd..

i'm actually just looking for a good accordion and a harpsichord.

GIGA or akai would be nice..

Did you do an internet search?

Free quality might be a little hard to find.

yeah i've found free sound fx crap.. but i was wondering if any quality music samples are available to purchase and download online

R.I.M, sure, many free and commercial sites. For decent commercial samples in multiple formats, Sonic Implants and Wizoosounds come to mind. Both have some very good and very reasonably priced formats. I'm sure there are many other sites too.

For freebies, check the various soundfont sites. A big and growing list of these freebie sites can be found here:

The Infinite Free Soundfont list

Hope this helps.

thanks! that was exactly what i was looking for..

Hi!

If you want downloadable multisamples, check out
http://www.precisionsound.net
We have products that may interest you. For example the "Weltmeister Accordion". There are lots of MP3 demos on the site.
Other products; “Dusty Electric MKII”, “Kloo Mandolin”, “Angelic Vocal Pads” and more.

Upcoming: “Privilege flute” and later this year, a big Harpsichord recorded in SAMI studio in Stockholm.

Best regards,

Lars Westin

Argggh! Lars, I'm looking for a great accordion sample (I have the Post Accordion and find ot only occasionally useful( but yours is not available in Giga! Bummer...

Yes, hmmm we have had a great success with it. Lots of people that bought it liked it, a lot, so we should port it to Giga to reach out with it, bigger.

For now there is not possible because lack of time. In the future I hope to find time to do a giga version. However the "Kloo Mandolin" has a soundfont version (giga compatible), but that will not help you now...
