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

Sorry for the ad, but I thought some of you might appreciate this. I have just released a Circuit Bending sample DVD called Electronic Critters.

The project idea came about when I started a marathon circuit bending spree for my last album. I spent a lot of time chopping up the sounds and processing them to create interesting sounds for the album. I enjoyed this so much I carried on doing this, and thus Electronic Critters was born :-)

The package contains:

- Over 750 raw and un-processed circuit bent samples.

- Over 250 sound textures and atmospheres created from the above samples.

- All samples are provided in both 16bit 44khz and 24bit 44khz.

- Free promo album with some tracks off my previous albums.

There is a FREE pack of 20 samples from the DVD which you can download and use as you wish from the link below... I will add the FREE samples to SoundSnap over the next few days..

You can hear more at http://www.electroniccritters.com

Also you can join us on myspace.com/electroniccritters

The DVD is available for pre-order at £20 + p&p with international shipping.

Cheers :-)

Steve

Hello Creature, Why don't

Hello Creature,

Why don't you share a few sounds on Soundsnap as a teaser- perhaps the ones that didn't get on the DVD?
A lot of people do that for commercial libraries.

You have to give something to get something.. :-)
