Synchronization is the term that describes the way in which the sound effects you buy on Pro Sound Effects .com can be utilized in productions that you create. A sound can be synchronized with a visual presentation (the sound of a creaky door timed perfectly to be heard when a door opens), or with other audio material such as a voice over - as in the case of a radio commercial. A sound can be synchronized for use in many media: television, radio, film, multimedia and audio-visual presentations, Web sites, computer games and music. All of our products are royalty free and are sold with their synchronization rights.
The rights to re-sell, re-publish or otherwise distribute sound effects and music are not obtained with your purchase. When you use the sound effects and music, they must be synchronized within a multimedia presentation, film, Web site, game, audio-visual production or broadcast.
Yes, you can synchronize sound effects for playback only on your Web site, so that button rollovers "bark" or a banner crackles in the "wind". This type of use is absolutely legal. But you are not allowed to distribute the sound effects in any way - whether you intend to give, trade, loan or sell them. You are not permitted to present the sound effects in any way that would allow access to the sound effects or sounds as downloadable audio. This would be a violation of proprietary property rights and is therefore unauthorized without express written permission.
.

If you decide to sell your hard drive at a later date, however, ALL audio files MUST be removed from the disc before you transfer ownership. You are not authorized to sell copied versions of our audio files under any circumstances - this practice is an infringement of copyright.

All of our products are designed to work perfectly with any type of computer, DAW or console. If you are using an Audio CD, chances are your audio or video software program will allow you to import tracks from the CD. As an alternative, you can use a “ripper”, a software application that digitizes the audio to your specification, such as 44.1 16-bit .wav files. To find free rippers online we recommend performing a Google™. Once you’ve digitized the Audio CD, you’ll want to edit the resulting files in your application of choice.
Other products, including CD-ROMs, DVD-ROMS, hard drives and downloads all come pre-digitized and pre-edited as either .wav or .aiff files. Both of these file types work with most audio and video software and will be readily recognized by both Mac and PC computers.
.
Yes, almost all of our libraries have high-quality audio demos in MP3 format. Your computer’s default media player (i.e. Windows Media Player, QuickTime, iTunes) will allow you to preview the MP3’s. If you do not have an appropriate player, click on the links below to download one:
