• Is the Soundly Library Trustworthy? Possible Stolen Audio?

  Now, I've also been using Soundly to help catalog and search through the sounds I have downloaded. Soundly also has their own audio library that users can download, and I was looking into whether this library could help justify their subscription cost for the pro version. When searching, I came across the following files:. Source: about 3 years ago

• Any good, LEGIT sound libraries for indie/solo devs out there?

• Categories of Percussion Sounds

  Depending on your needs, a sound librarian like Soundly might work for you. This way the name of the file doesn't matter too much, and you can add meta data to describe the sounds. Source: over 3 years ago

• So with all this talk of risky sound effects libraries with stolen audio, How do you find safe, credible ones?

  Https://www.asoundeffect.com/ is a great place for indie libraries - It's used by professional sound designers, including myself, and to get your pack listed you need to be vetted first so the risk of someone using sounds from another commercial pack is low to non existent. There's also providers like https://hissandaroar.com/v3/ (high end, professional field recordings), As well as https://getsoundly.com/ (has... Source: over 3 years ago

• SFX

  Originally, I was using Freesound.org. These days I'd suggest using Soundly which both makes searching Freesound a little easier, adds some extra free sounds of its own, and makes it easier to manage sound effects you've found/created. Source: over 3 years ago

• What synthesizers lend themselves to creating ambient or abstract sound effects, rather than music?

  I’m a motion designer (animated graphic design) and I’ve lately been really interested in exploring sound design in my work. Part of this is using recorded sound effect samples from sites like Soundly or freesound. However, I’d also really like to be able to play with making ambient, atmospheric sounds and abstract sound effects. I like the idea of having a hardware interface to play with for this purpose, so I’m... Source: over 3 years ago

• What are some good and affordable sound libraries, similar to Soundly?

  Soundly has been my go to for small game projects right now. It's $15/month, $7.50 for students and gives full access to their whole library. The problem is it's far from complete and doesn't have as many sounds as I'd like, and there is some variability in the sound quality. I love it but want more options. Source: over 3 years ago

• Ideal sample managers for sfx?

  Forgot it in my other comment but there's also soundly, which is like a sound-effects version of splice which comes with it's own database tool. It can also index local files but not sure if it only lets you do that with a subscription, maybe worth trying out as the professional tools I named are quite expensive. I don't know exactly where the metadata is usually stored and if it's easily readable with basic OS... Source: over 3 years ago

• What’s the name of the sound effect Drew used in Hard Rock Nick video?

  It could possibly be from one of HardRockNick's videos. Another guess is this program called soundly which I know Danny uses for sound effects and I wouldn't be surprised if Drew also uses it. Source: over 4 years ago

• Where do you get your sounds effects? Which ones do you use the most?

  I use the soundly app and I can honestly say its the most efficient platform I've used for sfx. Highly recommend if you're an editor who uses sfx in work. I don't have time to hop on the internet and download files. Time is crucial always. Source: over 4 years ago

• Epidemicsound.com - Anyone use? Have a question...

  If you're just looking to drag n drop music, Epidemic should be fine (or I saw Artist.io in the responses, I think?). But if you want music options and some quality SFX my go-to recommendation is Soundly. I use them exclusively for clients of all types when I'm in a pinch. Source: almost 5 years ago

• Audition CC users, do you have a better alternative for Media Browser for previewing files quickly?

  But recently I've looked very seriously into some asset management plugins/software, and the ones that seem the most promising to me would probably be Soundly, ADSR Sample Manager, Resonic, Sononymn, and Sound Q. I think most of these are either free or reasonably priced. Source: almost 5 years ago
