It seems like something like this is in pretty high demand around these parts. I figured I'd just make one. It would be nice if it was made a sticky. I'll look after it. If any of you have something to add, just let me know. Also, I think it would be pretty cool if any new samples were posted, that it would be in this META. That way we can all keep up with them. So without further ado..... EDIT: A lot of these links are dead since the FTP went down. There are a lot of the samples in this collection that Erkan organized. I would suggest looking here first. http://www.ultimatemetal.com/forum/andy-sneap/529782-sharing-my-collection-drum-samples-here.html Andy's Samples Here are the old samples Andy posted... http://andysneap.com/media/drum samples/ Here are the Chimaira tom samples from Andy... http://andysneap.com/media/drum samples/chimaira/ Samples in the forum http://www.ultimatemetal.com/forum/andy-sneap/311456-some-new-snare-samples-me.html http://www.ultimatemetal.com/forum/andy-sneap/300039-kick-ya-all.html (a great metal kick called "best kick on earth") http://www.ultimatemetal.com/forum/andy-sneap/246210-share-sample-thread.html http://www.ultimatemetal.com/forum/andy-sneap/294860-help-china-sample-needed.html http://www.ultimatemetal.com/forum/andy-sneap/316683-few-kick-snare-samples-if-we-need-more.html http://www.ultimatemetal.com/forum/andy-sneap/331317-my-kick-drum-collection.html Outside the forum freebies...

IMHO 2 best free full kits: GSCW drums NS_kit7_free + presets I like to use Sneapforum kicks and snares + everything else from these two kits. (Why noone here ever posts any cymbals/hihats/crashes ?)
thanks y'all! I'm going to try and make my foray into midi programming using fruity loops and that free easy drummer thingy. These will come in handy!
perfect. just what i needed !! my laptop was stolent and I lost all the samples I gathered lately. Great that I can get them back in few minutes ! Thanx !
I've been trying to keep this updated. Let me know if I'm missing anything important, or if you find anything that's not here.
