Amazing website. Sound effects packs can be incredibly expansive for what you actually need when you don’t own a professional studio. The concept of being able to buy individual sounds is really nice... See more

Very good SFX library but BAD website/payment
Very good SFX library for horror. My problem was with the payment. I’ve never had such problems with paying with creditcard internationally, but their website demanded 3D secure, which I cant get from my bank. And I wasnt able to pay with paypal either. Support helped me with an invoice but the invoice demanded paypal or wire transfer (which both take at least 3-7 days for international payment.) and the support put 1DAY due date for me to pay. That is impossible. I will not be buying from there again. We’ll see how the payment will be resolved..

Hi Cindy !
We also hate 3D secure, but its the card issuing bank that requests it sometimes (not us).
Please contact support and we will be able to help immediately, we can set you up with an account and figure out payment later.
The music is not good
The music is not good. I should have check more thoroughly before purchasing. Effects are useable. I wrote to you about issues and never received a response. It’s a self serve website for sure.

Search engine
A comprehensive and useful archive of sound recordings, by my experience, needs a really good search engine. Soundsnap is built around one.

Soundsnap go to for post-production and sound design
Soundsnap is very sound rich and intuitive platform, sound libraries they offer will cover any post-production and sound design project. Still havent explore new music library but it looks promising.

A good investment
Honestly, this subscription has already saved me so much time, and I've only had it a week or two.

Please add more User Interface and Tech sound effects. I've quickly exhausted the library of those types of sounds. Thank you! Otherwise, it's been a great tool in the sound design arsenal.

You guys are fantastic
You guys are fantastic. Always offering options for whatever I search for. Giving me options and sometimes rewarding me with sounds that even I was not expecting. Thank you for doing such a great job.

Soundsnap really saved me with a few crucial sounds I needed for a movie project I was working on. They have a massive and easy to use database with thousands of great sounds. Will definitely use again.
