What it is

LANDR Samples is a royalty-free music production library with over 3 million samples, including one-shots, breaks, loops, chords, beats, single hits, and sound recordings. Users can browse by genre, instrument, sound effect, BPM, or key, and the Selector uses AI to suggest related sounds based on a chosen sample. Samples are provided in WAV format, with stems and vocal content included. LANDR says samples can be used in recordings, including commercial releases, subject to its terms. A free collection lists 62 packs and 1,423 samples, and LANDR says users can access a selection of over 6,000 free royalty-free samples. The free Samples plugin connects the library to a DAW for browsing, auditioning, and dragging sounds into tracks; it works with DAWs that host AU or VST3 formats. Plugin support lists macOS 10.13 or later and Windows 10. Paid downloads use credits: each sample costs one credit, while packs may have different credit costs. Unused credits roll over while a plan is active, but remaining credits are lost at the end of the billing cycle after cancellation. A LANDR account is required.
