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!

I've only seen it once so

I've only seen it once so can't recall the FX for when it transforms. Can you explain a little further on that? Or, even better - find a clip?

Cheers,

I did some detective work on

I did some detective work on this. To hear the sound go to: http://www.mtv.com/overdrive/?id=1567490&vid=169853

This is a full episode of the show. I think the sound you might be looking for is what you might call a Electrical Whoosh with a big back end boom at the end. Anyway, the show on that sight is broken up into 3 clips, the sound you want is in clip #3, at least that gets more people aware of what you're looking for.

Good Luck, Happy Hunting.
