sampleswap.org as well.

Look around on this site, there are sampleplacks for download. Threads with only links to cool sample sites, etc..
Do try to make your own sounds though, it's good practise and the scene needs new sounds every once in a while Happy

just start off with a vst preset that you like (or any preset actually)...
then play with the nobs till it sounds good Big Grin
then save preset for future use.
over a matter of weeks, you will find you have a good
database of home made samples.
with this practice, you will also learn what nob does what,
which will make it much easier to make future samples.
synapse junglist is a good one to start on...
as is NI pro 53 and 3x osc.
vanguard is ok for leads too.
i find using these is much better practice.
write some notes, loop em, and play around with your synth
until you get excited by the sounds.
thats what i do.
