Vocal Samples + Construction Kits Big Fish Audio + EWQL
 

Hey everyone,

I am looking to buy some vocal samples for backing vox tracks.

I found these:
EastWest Vocal Samples

http://www.audiomidi.com/ProSamples-...als-P1944.aspx = $40

http://www.audiomidi.com/ProSamples-...irs-P1945.aspx = $40

http://www.audiomidi.com/ProSamples-...use-P1961.aspx = $40

http://www.audiomidi.com/QL-Voices-o...pse-P3964.aspx - $400

Are they any good?

Also, I found the Big Fish Audio site and am wondering if there construction kit/sample CDs are any good. The demos sound OK, but not earth shattering. I use my Virus KC / Motif ES Rack as my bread and butter power combo but am thinking it can't hurt to have some other stuff to throw in a mix, especially if it is cheaper than buying new synths...

:lol:

Any info is greatly appreciated.

Hey Luke4421,

Interesting to read your response almost two years after my initial question!

I'll have to check out those products again. Since then I have bought some acapella tracks from Junodownload.com, bought an acapella collection of DVDs from eBAY (actually supplied by an acapella forum if I remember correctly), and bought just a few clips from www.playinmusic.com (they let you buy just a portion of their vocal sample CDs so you don't get stuck with material you don't need, very cool of them actually), and been messing with them.

So many of the free vocal samples I've found on the web are from singers who try to be Whitney Houston or who are way too emotional in their expression. Very, very hard to get just what your looking for. I'm actually considering asking around at the local universities' music departments to see if there is a real live singer out there that's willing to do a recording session or two, but time is hard to come by nowadays too!
