    As there are so many sample labels on the market and the polls are limited to 20 choices, I could just propose 18 of them and left 2 possibilities to vote for other labels (please precise in your post which one you chose)

    You can change your vote but cannot see the results without voting first

    Let's have fun and see what is going to happen!!!

    PS the vote is about sample packs, not about Kontakt libraries manufacturers (Orchestral Tools, Spitfire, Native Instruments, Output, AudioBro, Cinesamples, etc), thanks

    May be I'll make a poll for these later

    ok so 1 vote for 5Pin and 1 for Freak Music.
    @The Pirate Loopmasters was already in the list so we'll had one vote to the existing ones
    I thought about listing 5Pin of course but there wasnt room for everyone.... i wanted to add a little variety and outsiders ^^

    I dunno what to think of this, i don't wanna sound harsh or something. :dunno:
    Zero-G and Big Fish Audio have made some of the most premium quality sample libs ever and they 're not even in your list. Loopmasters, being the most prolific since they started distributing many others, should be third even if their quality has deteriorated in comparison with the past, when they put out less content but spot on. Those 3 companies care to produce acidized samples/loops which contain tempo and root note metadata. The rest don't, although Vengeance has made enough classics to be considered among the best. Sample Magic and Zenhiser have put out some good ones but they have a lot of bad cropping and low quality ones. Same goes for Prime Loops and Samplephonics.
    Cheers

    ok @ThePirate i'm gonna do this. please can you correct your vote by choosing Loopmasters in the list?

    @taskforce sorry mate but i really couldn't list all the labels here since there were only 20 available, that's why i left two free slots but your vote has been taken into consideration don't worry. and yeah i love zero-g and big fish too

    looks like Black Octopus leads for now... let's see if they can win this poll. but of course we need a lot more voters to get an idea.
    i'm pretty surprised i'm the only one who voted for Splice... and happy to see that Goldbaby was chosen twice ^^^

    I'll post a more complete list of labels below the OP later today for those who don't know all of them

    Black Octopus Sound is one of the most useful because of the leviathan series, but I can't use many of the sample packs because it's mostly not my genre. I think Freshly Squeezed Samples is my fav label. They mostly have the most useful samples for trance or real classiv progressive house (not the martin garrix progressive house).

    Zenhiser is nice too, but many stuff is not useful for me, too. But the packs I use are great.

    Vengeance is really great for happy hardcore stuff or something like that, all sample packs are great for me, but I don't really like the brand anymore xD

    My first vote goes to Other 1, Freshly Squeezed Samples!

    Splice,Capsun Pro audio and Origin Sound (a recent favourite) for me.Splice covers almost all genres and manages to release quality sample packs from known artists and not, consistently...Capsun Pro audio has released some dope packs in the music genre I'm in...And lastly, origin sound.A new favourite of mine ever since their latest hip hop sample pack releases...I found ice cold,ice cold 2,hard af and more (my opinion always) to be LIT!!!

    I'm just like you a recent absolute fan of Origin Sound (I have 120 packs from them now :disco:) and i also voted for them ^^ just like for Splice. (you can try Production Master too as they are pretty close to Origin Sound) And my 3rd was Goldbaby because I have a love story with that company even if it's been a while since they've released new stuff

    Complex question, because answer is mostly genre-oriented... As an exemple, my personnal favs are "the Drum Broker", "Goldbaby" & "Rawcutz".
    You can guess i'm not into hard techno! :no:

    In my "area of expertise" (ok, I could simply call it hiphop, haha), those 3 companies offers what I expect from a good sample label :
    - very good "generic" sounds : you know, the ones you've already heard a dozen times on different productions, so when you choose to use them they need to be spot-on and not destroyed by a clipper maniac
    - and a more personal/unique way of choosing or mangling some sounds or drums.

    I'll add SoundMorph to the list.
    Great cinematic stuff, top quality.

    Loopmasters because of their huge variety, i.e. ArtisanAudio, one of my favorites.

    Goldbaby. Quality.
