Beta Test Invitation and Free Sound Effects
Recently we shared that we are making some big changes here at Airborne Sound. We’re taking a new direction with the website and our sound library.
Part of this is the new design you see on the site. Another aspect is a different philosophy of sharing sound. We’ll share details about this soon.
Right now we’d like to invite you to be part of this evolution, as site beta testers.
How to Be Part of the Beta Test
What do you need to be part of the beta test?
Not much! All you need is a few minutes of your time.
Over the next month we will be releasing over two gigabytes of free sound clips. They’re collected in bundles on the free sound effects page. We’ll release a new bundle a week.
These are all sound effects from our collection of 20,000 downloadable sound clips. They are 96 kHz, 24-bit WAV files. All have bonus Soundminer metadata baked in.
The first is a Train collection. It’s a mix of passenger, freight, and locomotive sound effects. I recorded, and mastered them myself. I also applied extensive metadata to them to help you learn more about the tracks, and find them in Soundminer.
Simply choose the bundle, add it to your cart, then checkout. The bundles are free, so you won’t be charged at all. The checkout total will come to $0.00.
Click the “purchase” button and you’ll immediately be presented links to download the free sounds. We’ll also email you a “receipt” with links to download the sounds, too.

Bonus Steps
What else can you do to help?
If you’d like (and this is purely optional), you can share this post with your friends. You can find sharing links at the bottom of this article.
You can also email us with ideas, feedback, and suggestions. If you catch bugs, and want to let us know, that would be helpful too. You can also leave a comment at the base of this post.
But you really don’t have to. You can just take the free sound effects and add them to your collection however you like. (Just please don’t share them elsewhere, even for free.)
Thank You
Thanks in advance for being part of the beta program. They helps us test our store and bring us closer toward our goal: giving you great tools to help in your creative projects.
We have more big changes planned, stay tuned!
