Royalty Free and Copyright Free Sounds Bites

I have now been making YouTube videos for a number of years now, over that time I have collected many sounds. You will often see me out and about with not just a camera, but also with a sound recorder. Sometimes, I can be seen in the early hours of the morning, pushing shopping trolleys around an empty car park. I am sure that many onlookers and perhaps CCTV camera operators are wondering what on earth I am up to. My sound recorder is only small, so not being able to see that, they must think that there is a bit of a nutter doing strange things. I have now started small library on my Google Drive that is free for you to use in your videos, or wherever else you need to add sound clips. If you just want to jump in and see what is available, then check out Royalty Free Sound Bites.

Royalty Free Ringtones

Some of the Royalty Free Sounds, I have made a little longer so that they can be used as ringtones. I would say though that the collection of ringtones is not exactly massive, but maybe there is something in that section that suits your needs. I would also say that, if you have a certain request for a sound bite or ringtone, then just leave a comment below and I will see what I can do for you. Royalty Free Ringtones.

Royal Navy Ringtones

Amongst the collection of ringtones and sound clips, I do also have a small selection of sounds and Royal Navy Pipes that may be of interest to ex- sailors, or maybe even current serving sailors, if only to use to annoy your oppo’s. Once again the list is not massive, but I do encourage you to contact me and make a request for a particular pipe that you would like to hear again. If you are looking for the RN Sound Effects, then just scroll down to the section that starts with RN or Royal Navy. The two links shown above can be followed in order to find the Royal Navy Sound that you are looking for. Within those sections, you will find such things as; Hands to Action Stations; Whoop Whoop Sound, Royal Navy Fire Alarm; Various Royal Navy Pipes, Duty Tanky Flight Deck, Duty Watch Muster on the Quarterdeck. Just check out the list in both sections.

Free Sound Bites for Videos

When making videos, one problem is keeping the the viewer interested and entertained. It has now been well proven that by adding additional sound clips to a video, will enhance the viewers experience. It has also been shown that using a different sound when an action takes place, will enhance the viewers experience. For example, you may have a scene where the lens is being attached to a camera, you could then use the sound of a gun being cocked at that point. Sometimes, just by adding the wrong sound, or a different sound can hold a viewers attention for longer. You may enjoy this post on how to use sound to boost video retention.

As well as a link above to the free sound clips, I have also created a playlist on YT of some of the sound clips that are available: Royalty Free Sound Clips
