Sample packs
Drums, loops, one-shots and breaks from people who record their own. The numbers below are the maker's; where buyers have rated a pack, that count is printed too, because a rating count is a fact and a recommendation is not.

Questions people ask
Are these really free?
11 of the 22 on this page cost nothing at the time we checked. Free here means a price of zero on the maker's own page, not a trial and not a cut-down edition. Some makers ask for an email address before the download; their page says so, and we do not.
What formats are these in?
Of the 22 listed: WAV (6), MIDI (2). Where a maker does not state a format we leave it blank rather than guess, so an entry with nothing listed is one whose page did not say.
Do any of these need something I might not have?
Some do: Decent Sampler, PO-133, PO-33. That requirement is printed on the entry itself, because it is the part people find out after downloading. Where a maker ships a wrapper for one host beside a plugin that runs anywhere, the requirement belongs to the version being sold, not to both.
How were these picked?
They came through the same filter as everything we post: a maker's own page, read and stored, with every number checked against it. 7 of the 22 here carry buyer ratings, which are printed. We do not rank things we have not measured, and nothing on this page claims a listening test we did not do.
