Neat google trick for samples

Decided to put this little trick in its own thread

Awesome google trick to find samples on the internets

Say you need some snares. Type in the following:

?intitle:index.of? wav snare

and voila, you have 5 pages of open directories full of snares. Change snare to whatever kind of sample you are looking for and it will most likley show up on there.

Doesn't just work for samples either, works for any file type. So you could change wav to jpg, and do a search for blonde, brunettes, twins, etc......

I suspect this would be counterproductive to producing.

Unless by twins you mean layering the same snare.
