I recently sold off a hardware sampler. The gentleman that purchased it told me about Splice.com. It seems like a cost effective way to have current sounds available at a fixed rate. It comes with a 14 day free trial. Is anyone using this subscription service? What are its pros and cons? Thanks in advance!

Awesome site. I use them all the time. I recently got a song placed on Fox Sports where most of the samples I used were from Splice.

No but I use Noiiz which is a similar principle.

Pro's -

Good value at $9.99 for up to 1gb downloads each month
DAW intergrated Plugin so it's easy to audition stuff
Advanced search features
Access to any new sample packs released

Cons -

Some genres underrepresented ( not really much trad stuff )
Not always that many samples within less popular keys

Generally a good experience though for those that like to use samples

Thanks for the response. Congratulations on the Fox Sports placement.

Thanks Mark. I'll check out Noiiz as well.

Yup, that's how I got Serum. Great idea.

I just started using Sounds.com from Native Instruments this week. Managing files is a lot easier than Splice. Also it's cool to be able to download samples directly to your IOS device too.

I use splice for the free unlimited storage/back up of projects and collab abilities...
