hey, i feel i've used the samples i've got as much as i possibly can and really need some new samples...
the ones i've got are alright sounding but i could really use some new snare and bass samples, straight forward but good sounding, if ya get me
ive got loads of bass that have click for some reason and some fake sounding snares
i normally use sampleswap and looperman but they haven't been any use

Your samples don't necessarily have to be from a 'Dubstep pack' as are usually just taken from electronic/garage/reggae packs. Although i recommend you check out some of Primeloops packs. They're pretty good, i usually have a few of their samples in each off my tracks. Otherwise just do a google search for 'free sample packs', theres plenty out there

oh yeah bro i know,
i have a funk sample pack and stuff, just i have some that i started with and they just dont sound nice to begin with..
wondered if anybody has any direct links to some great ones! haha
edit:
ive tried all combinations of dubstep/reggae/drum n bass and also none of those combined with "drum" "sample" and "packs" and nothing useful...

yo koosh

hope your well dude
you should dig for samples to ensure originality
if everyone had the same samples as each other ... tunes would be boring
plus when you find a wicked sample you'll appreciate it x10

Find a few songs which start with a drum loop or feature drums playing in isolation and sample them. Much more fun and you don't feel as dirty.

Check freesound.org and troll the net. Also sampling older songs is kool (its a bit harder work - and you may need to cut out some freq - but results are sweet). Good luck cuz - keep sampling!!! Z.
