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 use Firefox as my preferred browser.
It does nor work on you site.
Downloads fine.
Will not preview sounds.
I used a 2sec sound clip as an example
When play sound selected
Buffering started
Speaker icon was animated
Progress bar started to move
No indication of percent buffered
Buffeibg does not work
Let it run for 10mins
no percentage displayed
bar travelled maybe 1/3"
at that rate would take over an hour to buffer 2sec clip
ALL WORKS WELL WITH IE7
NOTHING ABOUT BROWSER COMPATIBILITY CAN BE FOUND ON SITE HELP OR FAQ

I use Firefox and it works fine. Perhaps it's something else?

Hi Robert,

We are aware of some bugs, but some are known bugs caused by the browsers and the OS, and not caused by Soundsnap.

Also, have a look at this:
