Last week I told you about The Freesound Project and I’m sure you’ve been finding all the samples you’ll ever need there. If you still can’t find that needed sample, here is another site called SoundSnap which currently at the time of writing has 30,000 sound samples, again supplied by generous people from all over the world. All sounds are provided free for you to use Royalty Free and there is a great search and category layout which makes it easy to find the sound you want.


The sound preview feature is very good and very fast. Samples are available in wav or mp3 format and sometimes aiff format. I suggest you get the wav format ones if your using the sounds in your music as they should be the better quality. There is also a ratings system to rate the sounds. We like SoundSnap a lot and I have started searching it quite a bit and best of all, it’s Free (my favourite word ).
