    Recomendation for Sound Library

     Hallo.

    I'm looking for a big, giant, huge and even gigantic sound library to purchase. Any recomendations? Searchability (is that a word?) would also be helpfull.

    I assume you're talking about sound effects . .

     

    Yes, I use the Digital Juice library and it's very good. I also like Hollywood Edge's Premiere Edition, and Their Cartoon Traxx.

    Re: Recomendation for Sound Library

    If you're looking for sound effects, I'd also advise you to look into Video Copilot's collection of "Designer Sound Effects".

    http://www.videocopilot.net/dsfx.html

    They're not regular sound effects like water running, dogs barking, etc....they're really useful swishes, hits, drum beats and things of that nature that you'll probably find some type of use for in nearly every single job you use.

     Yes! We are big on "whooshes" round these parts and I'm sick of the same handfull of sounds.
