"Some of these may be obsolete now but you'll hopefully be able to get at
least something out of these."
 
as impressive as that list looks... about the first 10 links I tried were all useless....either obsolete, lousy samples, bad fidelity, just obscure noises...stuff like that. Not one link that had a decent, high fidelity sample. After trying 10 or more... I felt the track record of what I was getting, persuaded me not to try another 10... maybe I'm too lazy.

but thanks for the list...at least from me
 
Again,

"Some of these may be obsolete now but you'll hopefully be able to get at
least something out of these."

Dont let the above comment discourage you, In the past I found several useful samples from these links..

BTW, Ive never found a sample that didnt need some magic... Its what you put into it that can make it great!
