SampleSwapProfessional quality free audio samples and electronic music

[canton]

Use the following page to upload your original music to SampleSwap. It will automatically create a posting in this forum:

http://www.sampleswap.org/upload-song.php

You will be uploading an uncompressed master of your song -- a full-blown 44 Khz / 16-bit WAV or AIF file. NO MP3s. This is because the server will be creating two super-high quality mp3 versions of your song on the fly.

You can upload one or drag-and-drop many songs at once onto the uploader, which will accept songs of up to 100 MB (10 minutes) each.

During the upload process you will have an opportunity to specify genre, MP3 tags, and the Creative Commons license under which you'd like to share your song with us.

Does the song need to exclusively include SampleSwap loops? Or can others be used as well?

no number of songs limitations ?

The uploader doesn't seem to be working for me, all I'm getting is a blank grey area with a message in the status bar of 'not found' when I activate the control.

Interesting uploader. Moving a raw wav is time consuming, but the subsequent steps of adding information, the Creative Commons license and then finally encoding are actually quite nice. I like it.

Hi I managed to upload several files successfully, but it seems your file conversion of them results in them being full of static. They still sound like my files but with shedloads of noise on top.
Am I the only one this has happened to?
To be honest I am not willing to go through the process of reuploading all of the files as there seems to be an error with the file conversion process, and it took me all day last time, and there's no way I'm spending all day uploading files again for them to be converted badly, so is there another possible way to drop files onto the server?

With regard to the grey box, I got round that issue by hitting reload.

[rhythmsickness]

yeah I loaded 16-bit mixes.

[crashboomkapow]

I have a song that is 100.7 mb. Any chance that I can still upload it?

[canton]

[rhythmsickness]

yeah I think thats the problem, that it was done on a mac and not a pc. sounds like the bit has been inverted. which means I have to reupload as well as re render them all. sorry. you really should have mentioned that in your initial message.

Hello,

I have a small problem with the uploader: I already uploaded three songs and tagged 2 of them, but when I finished uploading the 3rd one I was told that I have two untagged songs and I got the page to tag one of the songs I had already tagged. What should I do? How can I get the page for the right song to tag it?

Thank you in advance for any help.


P.S. Sorry for posting this twice, but I didn't know exactly where to post.

Canton, would you please delete the one that is not in the right place?

maaan, im sorry to tell you, and no offence, but this upload thingy needs to be better than what it's now cuz it's really faggy and poorly functional! I've been trying to uplad my mixes for past week,16bit 44.1 wav.'s, and it hasnt worked once for me. i was almost ripping my hair out cuz i wanted into the contest so badly, but due to this i couldnt participate. oh, what a shame :)
P.s. No exuces accepted :P

I've had no probs on my own PC but I first used my bros to upload because of the setup i have on my own pc with trusted sites. He runs XP no service packs and I installed the java app that you need and there were problems with it. Lets just say it's a very good job that my PC worked otherwise I wouldn't havre been able to participate either. The only difference between our pcs is that I have XP SP2 and he doesn't so I don't know if that's why it didn't work. Strange. But, it's a really cool uploader once it works for you!

I'm only running service pack 1 and no updates at all and i've had no problems, so i think the problem must be something else. It seems to be quite a rare problem so i don't think it would be anything major like service packs or the like. Maybe some types of antivirus/firewall don't agree with the uploader? Who knows.

[Tozzy]

I think it could be software conflicts or possibly a viral related issue. My PC is as clean as a whistle. I know the majority of people who have stupid programs running at startup, stuff going on in the background etc like my bros computer downstairs, but I can only think it worked on mine because mine is fully functional.

anyone knows if uploading here will risk any potential to get a tune released?

i mean the labels might not like if people can get the tune here for free!?
