#49 Soundsnap

Soundsnap is a free library (there are paying memberships too) of over 30,000 sounds, it allows you to download sound effects and loops in MP3 or upload your own sounds to the site.
I found - magical and celestial harp and windchimes in an ascending phrase, ideal for an animation of fairies,angels or casting spells, and a Rhyhmic and percussive klaxon I'm sure someone has for when a nuclear reactor melts down. I can't see a way to embed them in this post, but do have them saved for either a placid moment or a crisis.
How would you use these if you’re not an electronics geek? Often people want sound effects – slamming doors, footsteps, phone ringing, rain falling (even if its virtual rain). You could use my rhythmic and percussive spaceship alarm at closing time.
