sound fx/royalty free music

[Adam Keyes]

Luke,

I haven’t done a ton with music libraries, but I have found some great music (no FX) at Bluefuse. (bluefusemusic.com)

I also never purchased anything from them…don’t really know their prices, but check them out if you want.

I’m really picky about music, but I’ve found some pretty nice solutions. Blue Fuse is good, but it’s a lease. If leasing is what you’re after, there’s no end to what you can find out there. FirstCom is great for leases. More expensive though.

If you’re looking for inexpensive buy-out, try Studio Cutz, and since you’re looking at Digital Juice, I’ve really grown to appreciate the StacksTraxx libraries. The bass is rich and full, the music is customizable, and there are 50 libraries to choose from. They’ve recently lowered the price a little too. I visited a Final Cut Users Group, and the folks there liked Smartsound’s Sonic Fire Pro. I checked it out at NAB and almost bought it on the spot. Very cool software. https://www.smartsound.com/sonicfire/index.html

Another nice source is the Music Bakery at http://www.musicbakery.com. The prices are pretty decent, and I actually really like the music, and it’s a full buy-out.

I’ve never bought a sound effects library, but Hollywood Sound Effects is good, and I have a sweet spot in my heart for Sound Ideas because in the 18 years I was in radio, it was almost the only SFX library I used. https://www.sound-ideas.com

I saw the D-Juice sale…considered it myself, but need to look into it more.
