Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these sound effects really free?
- Yes. Every sound was synthesized from scratch by us — no recorded samples, no third-party library — so there is nothing to license. Use them in personal or commercial work, including monetized YouTube and TikTok videos, with no attribution.
- Will YouTube's Content ID flag them?
- No — they are not in any commercial sound library or rights database, because they were generated here.
- WAV or MP3?
- WAV is lossless and what editors prefer; MP3 is a tenth of the size and fine for social clips. Both are 48 kHz stereo, the video standard, so they drop into any timeline without resampling.
- How do I put a sound effect on my video at a specific moment?
- Click Add to video: the sound opens in the audio mixer, where you drag it to the second you want and set its volume, then download the video with the effect layered over the original sound.
