Hi, I have this recurring problem. Whenever I am "done" with the music, i like to add voice samples. Usually I get friends to record me just anything on the messenger: reading book parts or wiki pages. That's awesome. Lately, they neither find the time or the recording quality is to bad (wind noises and other background noises). I googled of course, but only find the same 5 lists of "free samples". Point is, i am happy to pay for it. Just can't find sites where to buy sample bundles for vocals.

So, where are you getting your vocal sample bundles?

Cheers and happy new year.

Also, finally i am a proud owner of an M8 :D

Eliminate made some nice vocal bundles on Splice that I like. Granted, there are tons of vocal samples on Splice.

Do you mean the Cyber trap Vol 1 samples?

That one has some vocals, but Cyber Vocals Vol 1 is entirely vocals with dry and wet options

You could search on fiverr for a freelance vocalist and they can record whatever you want.

That's a good idea! Didn't thought about that! Thanks

Your comments gave me another idea. I took some lines of Wikipedia, fed it to ChatGPT and let it read it aloud. I recorded it and its not bad at all - here is a taste of the Wikipage about Adaptive Optics http://www.sndup.net/vb5fd

Could just field record people talking. Or checkout Citizen DJ. It’s a sample library run by the Library of Congress.
