What is Soundsnap?

Soundsnap is the best platform to find and share free sound effects and loops- legally. It is a collection of original sounds made or recorded by its users, and not songs or sound FX found on commercial libraries or sample CD's.

It was originally started by a small group of sound people from all over the world. Our common belief is that sounds and samples should be free for everyone to use in their projects, commercial or not.

Our users are a diverse mix of sound designers, sound artists, web game developers, filmmakers and music producers. Hobbyists and home video makers are welcome too.

What Soundsnap is NOT:

  • An alternative to Myspace, Limewire or BitTorrent.
  • A place to upload your band's songs or your favourite mp3's. Soundsnap is only for sound effects and loops.
  • A place you can upload or find sounds from commercial libraries. All sounds here are original- made or recorded by its users.

We encourage everyone to upload high quality sound FX and samples, helping us make every kind of sound available on Soundsnap.

We are looking for feedback from the community to constantly improve, and we depend on our users for that. So please feel free to leave a recommendation or feedback in the special section of our forum.

I hope you enjoy your time here and Happy Snapping!

Hi all,

I 'm very proud to announce that we have developed an easy and user-friendly function that allows multiple simultaneous uploads.

This should make uploading much easier.

Registered users can access the multi-upload from the link in the upload page or directly from this page:

Thanks to the following users that asked for this function:

Hi, is it possible to apply to the batch common category and tags? I didn't find a way to do that. Thanks in advance for your help!

Hello and welcome

Hello and welcome nonlinear!
Thanks for sharing some useful loops.

We have thought about allowing mass tagging, descriptions and categorizing, but its not that easy to implement.

Additionally, we think that mass tagging could worsen the quality of the tagging, descriptions etc, since many people will leave them like that and won't take the time to add different descriptions and tags.

I hope that makes sense.
