I'm so looking for chip samples. Are there any site that has these?

Chip ain't samples. Chip is made. Make your own samples.

Check out the "chip techniques" doc at the Milky website.

Or I'll ensemble a small bunch of good chip samples for you. Although I agree it's cooler to make your own samples, but we all have to start out somewhere.

I'll bring words later when I have a bunch of good ones. Unless you would like some Pulse Dream samples (chip, but maybe not the kind of chip samples you want)?

Ok thanks for the help. So there is a document about chip technique? Where do I find that?

[Eagle]

Oh yes, there are quite a bit of documentation around here, a very good tutorial written by Vhiihula/Analogik here:

The website of MilkyTracker hosts quite a bunch of chipping technique, or they did at least last time I checked. They may have moved them to YouTube, so try make a search there. Links:
http://www.milkytracker.net
http://www.youtube.com

Then there's the pretty OK old tutorials I wrote some year ago or two about how you can apply cool effects on your samples. They work especially on chip samples.:

there's also that thing that I do....
step 1: drag non-sound files into the tracker
step 2: zoom in and look for something that looks like it'd make a good chip sample
step 3: copy and paste that one section into a new sample

repeat those untill you're happy with what you have....you can also downsample (in open modplug anyway?) to find interesting things...and then,
step 4: use this thing to tune all your samples...(I have a tendacy to skip this step, though... )

raw data files often does not fit for "classic" chip tunes which need pure square / pulse / triangle sounds. it *may* sound good, but it most cases, you won't find the original sound of a classic chiptune.
