I work for a verry small community theatre that is doing a stage show that needs sound fx and was wondering where is your go-to place to get cheep royalty free sound files.
I have found more royalty free sound effects there than anywhere else on the internet.YouTube is gonna be your best friend!

1) The computer we have doesn't have web access
2) how do you eddit out adds?
Freesound.org has a few types of free licenses with various (sometimes no) conditions.
I'm not saying you'll end up in court, but I'm pretty sure ripping anything from YouTube violates terms of service regardless of what the content creator thinks of it.
Utilizing services that can provide you with a certificate of use is the best way to go. If the YouTube sound effect has the download button and states terms of use, then go for it.5. Your Use of Content
In addition to the general restrictions above, the following restrictions and conditions apply specifically to your use of Content.
- The Content on the Service, and the trademarks, service marks and logos ("Marks") on the Service, are owned by or licensed to YouTube, subject to copyright and other intellectual property rights under the law.
- Content is provided to you AS IS. You may access Content for your information and personal use solely as intended through the provided functionality of the Service and as permitted under these Terms of Service. You shall not download any Content unless you see a “download” or similar link displayed by YouTube on the Service for that Content. You shall not copy, reproduce, distribute, transmit, broadcast, display, sell, license, or otherwise exploit any Content for any other purposes without the prior written consent of YouTube or the respective licensors of the Content. YouTube and its licensors reserve all rights not expressly granted in and to the Service and the Content.
Unfortunately for some content creators such as myself, YouTube is the easiest means to publish.
Whenever you see sound fx on YouTube, always make sure it is clearly stated that it is free to use by the owner.
Sometimes you may get lucky and find a link to a free download of the file.
At the end of the day - YouTube is a tool to express everyone’s creativity and if your form of creativity is repurposing already made sound effects; then go ahead and use all the resources at your disposal. It may not be the most kosher way of doing things but it certainly will get the job done
Facebook has a sound collection built in! Good to start...I work for a verry small community theatre that is doing a stage show that needs sound fx and was wondering where is your go-to place to get cheep royalty free sound files.
