I’m really thinking that I should make this into some kind of series. More and more frequently these days, I come across adverts for increasingly ridiculous plugins.

I had a quick look recently at my hard drive. I have around 250 clap sounds in my collection. I use around 5 different sounds very frequently, and a couple of others less often. The rest have never been used at all.

Pretty much every scenario you could ever think of is covered there. Or so I thought. Apparently, this is now a thing.

$49 to make my own personalised clap sounds, when I could just download any one of the millions of samples already in existence or even record myself clapping my hands?

“A fool and his money are easily departed” goes the old adage. That still seems to be true!
