Where do the sound effects on Sonic Sound Effects come from?
We work with independent sound recordists and sound effects creators from around the world. This gives our catalogue a wide variety of recording styles, locations, subjects and perspectives while supporting the people who create the sounds.

Are the sound effects compatible with my editing software?
Yes. WAV files are supported by virtually all major audio, video and game production software, including Pro Tools, Logic Pro, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, Reaper, Ableton Live and most other professional applications.
What file format are the sound effects supplied in?
Most libraries are supplied as high-quality WAV files. Recording specifications can vary between libraries, so we recommend checking the individual product page for information on sample rate, bit depth and included metadata.
Do your sound libraries include metadata?
Many of our libraries include embedded metadata to help you search and organise your sounds more efficiently. Some libraries also follow UCS naming conventions. Check the individual product description for specific metadata information.
What does 100% Royalty Free mean?
This means you can use the sounds purchased in our libraries for any commercial project without incurring additional royalty charges. Once you purchase your library of choice, it's yours to use and keep forever.
What's the difference between a single user license and multi user license?
A single user license allows an individual to use the library for personal and commercial use, meaning for projects such a film, online video, podcast, radio ad, content piece, etc. A multi user license is for a professional studio or business that has multiple users that will require access the library. For a multi user license, the number of licenses you will need will depend on how many studios / edit suites / work stations that will have access to the library within the facility. For example, a facility with 3 studios will require 3 license for the library being purchased. You can select how many licenses you require above the "Add to Cart" button on the product pages.
