    I’m producing a video for a company where I’d like to create an animated opening with mission / military style (greenish grid, typewriter text) and I need sound fx for that (typewriter, zooming sound and similar).

    Where can I found those and are they maybe already included in Soundtrack Pro or Garage Band (I’d search for them, but don’t know the file names).

    Just by searching “typewriter” on my mac brought up a couple of loops, which are in one of the loops for Soundtrack Pro folders. They’re .caf files which will need to be rendered in FCP so it would be convenient to convert them to aiffs. Once you’ve found the folders and have a look in them, it might turn out that you have whatever you need on your mac already.

    In the bottom right of STP is a pane called ‘search’

    Make sure that sound effects are chosen on the drop down.

    Then search for: typewriter, Whoo (which will bring up a bunch of clips named Whoosh)….

    and just explore the library.

    Obligatory “whoosh” clip

    Best,

    If you are looking for more I recommend the Designer Sound FX library. It is awesome.

    No I didn’t do the promo. I think you will be very happy with the library.

    It says: “RRequires: After Effects 7, CS3, CS4, or CS5”

    So, I cant use it directly in FCP 5 or 7?
