The original CDs are, of course, AIFF files that probably approach 750GB. In all, about 100GB (in MP3 format to save space on my HD). All high end discs from Lucas Film, Hannah Barbera, The General, etc. It sat in the studio for about 2 weeks before I could really go thru them. He asked for and got $200 for the whole shebang. The one I bought came from the box (first one out), But there were dozens of sets. He asked if i was interested in sounds (duh.). It looked semi professionally useful and at $3, why not? The head librarian happened by the desk as I was paying and noticed I bought the disc. There was a sound FX CD in their SALE box. area, I highly recommend a visit, but I digress.) Unfortunately, I don't subscribe to these libraries.Ībout 12 years ago I was at the Brand Library in Glendale (hey specialize in fine art and music. Please let me know what you use and recommend.

Also, all of SM's wonderfulness and value may not be immediately apparent just messing around with the demo. And, whereas SoundMiner is expensive, it's more of an industry standard. For me, I'd need to upgrade my OS to a newer, less DP-snappy, version to use Search, which only runs on MacOS 12 and up (I tested on a Mojave volume). ![]() ![]() Also, with Search and SM you can select just one channel of the audio to drag in as a mono audio file - though you have to buy a $649 version of SoundMiner for that feature!
