Splice Sounds
Splice Sounds is a royalty-free library of samples, loops, one-shots, MIDI, presets, and AI-assisted sound discovery tools.
Splice Sounds lets music producers browse, search, preview, and download royalty-free samples, loops, one-shots, MIDI, and presets. Users can filter by genre, instrument, key, and BPM, or search with text and audio.
It works through the website, desktop and mobile apps, DAW integrations, and the Splice Sounds Plugin beta. A free account supports browsing and previews; paid plans provide credits for downloads, with MIDI and presets costing up to three credits and Variations requiring an additional credit.
