Freesound and Soundsnap

[Crispy]

Just in case it's helpful, I discovered this site a couple of months ago. It has lot of sound effects, of varying quality; some bad, but many quite good, at least to my untrained ears. Most will likely require some editing, but maybe it'll be useful: http://www.freesound.org/

 

Edit: Also see http://soundsnap.com/

Some of my composer/student colleagues ran across that site a couple years ago. I used some of the sfx in Krellek's Labyrinth. It's a great site & I wish they had it when I was doing more sound design work for college theater.

Bumping this thread to re-iterate the existence of Freesound, and to add a new site which someone just recommended to me: http://soundsnap.com/ They swear by it. I haven't checked it out much yet but it looks good, and the licence is free and quite permissive.

 

With the chronic lack of SFX artists around here, perhaps some of our more audio-inclined members could check out these sites to see if they can find some good sounds for lockpicking. As the lockpicking thread in Current Build is demonstrating, these are crucial for gameplay.
