Splice
The royalty-free sound of music.
Overview
Splice is a multifaceted platform for music producers. Its core offering is a massive, subscription-based library of royalty-free samples. It also offers rent-to-own plans for popular plugins and DAWs. While its initial 'Studio' collaboration feature (a DAW with version control) has been de-emphasized, it remains a central hub for producers to get sounds and tools, indirectly supporting collaboration through asset sharing.
