Free to Use Sounds


Music and sound effects add a lot to projects. Just because you own a CD by your favourite band does not give you permission to add it to your work. You can contact the creator to ask permission. Otherwise, find another source for music.
  • You can create your own. Software like Garageband on the Mac or Aviary, found online are great ways to explore musical composition.
  • You can search through online sound banks with licenses that allow you to use their sound files
Read the licensing information. Some sites only allow you to use their files for classroom use - not for public performance which includes school events and publishing on the web.
