Similar to graphics, creating game audio often involves the sampling of various sound libraries. The games within the ''Pikmin'' series are a good example, where a large amount of audio can be sourced back to a number of different commercially-released products. These products are used to create the individual instrument samples and sound effects in the games, as well as pieces of streamed music.

The games within the ''Pikmin'' series are a good example, where a large amount of audio can be sourced back to a number of different commercially-released products. These products are used to create the individual instrument samples and sound effects in the games, as well as pieces of streamed music. All of the music in [[Music in Pikmin|''Pikmin'']], [[Music in Pikmin 2|''Pikmin 2'']], and [[Music in Pikmin 3|''Pikmin 3'']] use audio from digital instruments and synthesizers; instances of musicians performing live on real acoustic instruments are highly uncommon in the games. The [[Music in Pikmin 3#Side Stories|new music]] composed by Babi for {{p3d}} is one of the very few occasions where this was done.{{cite web|https://www.pikminwiki.com/File:Babi_email.png|Babi's response to an e-mail inquiry|Pikipedia}} | ||
Since there is a history of many different composers and sound effect programmers contributing to the games, there is a large variety of synthesizers and sample libraries that have been used. Listed below are all of these currently known products. | |||
