Idea Pool for A New Crowdsourced Library
Posted: March 21st, 2014, 7:49 pm
UPDATE: I will try and update the poll list with what everyone is suggesting in the thread. The poll only supports so many potential answers so I will need to swap out suggestions that are looking less desirable as we go.
Thought I would start a post to circulating ideas for a new community library. I'm all for trying to record really exotic and less obtainable sounds but it will drastically reduce the contribution level and probably make the library suffer in quality overall. I've posted some of the ideas I've had for libraries below. What would you like to see our community put together? What would interest you and make you want to go out and record?
