Background music, sound effects
Hey guys,
I just wanted to know where all the video tutorial editors got their fantastic background music or sound effects from. I searched all day long, but found nothing especially for movie sounds or something similar… Nearly in every preview of an Video Tutorial (for example in the ones of Andrew Kramer) there is some kind of cool music or sound effects. Can anyone tell me where they got that from?Thank you.

Fabian –
If you have the CS4 Production Premium suite, or Soundbooth, you have access to a pretty large (and free) library of music and sound effects. They can be downloaded from the Soundbooth interface – there’s a tab for Resources which will get you to them.
There are some free (albeit fairly low sampling rate) sounds out there on the web – FindSounds.com comes to mind – I’ve used many of them, and tailored a bunch of their sounds in the past – pretty good stuff.
If you’ve got audio editing software, or music software, there’s a wealth of free stuff as well. Search on SoundFonts, and you’ll find a ton of free sound patches to be used in VST plugins for the various music/audio editing packages (such as Sonar and Cubase). If you’re a musician, the average 300 dollar Yamaha synth has a huge library that can be recorded and customized to any computer with a sound card – that way you can really get original. Good luck!

If you look around to the left, right, or top of this page, there is probably an ad for Digital Juice. They have had music and sound effect collections over the years and will probably have more as well. (I’m not up to date on their current product line).
