I dont get how some of you say you were doing a tune and quit it because som1 released a tune with the same sample. Is your sample that important?!

Its really not hard to find original samples guys.

Delete them sample packs:)

yea if you download a sample pack off the biggest dubstep site on the net bare people are gonna have them and use them, make ya own watch off key films sample them, then you carnt moan about someone else having it, if someones song get released why it matter the song you just made might not , but on another hand there are songs using the same samples out there that have been released, if you dont like it dont make a song with samples pack simple

Even when I do use say drum samples from Battery that I know tons of people probably use, I always have to change them up a bit and make them different enough. As a producer you want to feel your music is strictly unique.....

Alot of dub step tracks have used reggae samples and they have all been done before, it's just re-using something and putting a new twist on it. Not necessarily a bad thing if you are the first. It's not great to be the 2nd, 3rd, 4th person to use the same sample in a dubstep track though.
this is one off the biggest amount off bullshit, ok then so everyone uses the sine wave so that means your not aload to use it by goin on what your saying

i find it funny people get so annoyed over using the same sound twice.

its basically what most popular music is based on, its hardly a sin.

I recently lost ALL of my samples. Don't know how it happened. I saved everything to an external HDD, and I went to make a tune, only to realize that all of my samples had been deleted.


At first I was a bit crushed, but it did give me time away from the sequencer. , and since I didn't have any samples, it really gave me a fresh template to start from. So instead of downloading a bunch of samples off the net (which I had plenty of before) I started going trough my music collection sampling everything I could find. I'm here building up my new and improved library, staying away from downloads as best I can.

It worked out for me. And actually, I'm glad this happened this way. Gave me a chance to think of where I am - production wise - and where I want to go. Also got some time in with the real world. Meeting with people who I haven't talked to in ages, and going to parties when I can.


maybe off topic, but meh.

ya for sure, like the people have said if u download samples of a dubstep forum, then expect that they are all used to death abotu a week after theyre firs tuploaded, and were probably rinsed out before they even made it to the pack. The ent has tons of great sounds to download if u look in the right places, and some people dont care about using already sued sounds. Myself though I wouldnt use samples downloaded from here to make dubstep, not to make serious dubstep with anyway. Too much music sounds the same nowdays, if u wanna be truely original with ur sound then u got to go get the sounds yourself, or use things no one else is using in ur given genre. Obviously if ur really creative with how u handle the sounds then u can get somehting unique witht hem, but as a rule of thumb it stays true.
