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!

How do I change the category of a sound I uploaded? I could not find this answered anywhere.

Do I have to delete it and start over?

Thank you for any guidance given!

Hi Michele, To change the

Hi Michele,

To change the category for your sound:

1) click on the filename of the sound

2) This takes you to the 'sound detail' page. Click on the edit tab

3) Change the category and hit 'submit'

This way you can also change the tags, description etc.

You are like a web guru! :)

You are like a web guru! :) I bet it was you who cleaned my extra comments (i.e. 2 extra signatures). curious though...do you know why three of the sounds i posted are gone? i did not delete them and they did not violate any rules that i saw. and i did create them but now they are gone. i don't see any notifications. any chance you can help me figure out what happened? i am sorry to bother you with it.
