I released SoundKit ( https://soundkit.io ), a library of UI sounds a few years back. At the time, there weren't really people marketing sounds for UI, so people were interested in discussing. I learned a lot from the feedbac

I do too a little. So I left that wording out of our rewritten license. Like the beginning of ours says "We're all adults here." The point is, don't steal by giving it away and otherwise use it like crazy.

I should also mention, all feedback is greatly appreciated. The original kit is meant as a general purpose pack. As we learn exactly what works and doesn't for users, we'll build out specific packs to add on.

I'm not sure if there was a playback issue, but I've replaced the sample anyway to be safe. The point of the product is to be a good value for the price. I encourage you to listen to all of the sounds available in the videos and l

Thanks everyone for the support today. The biggest concern has been the license and uses. In trying to make it easier to understand, we have rewritten the license in simpler terms. For anyone who purchased previously, no rights have been re

The license works the same as any other license you probably have for fonts, images, sounds, etc. For example, if you load a web font in an app, you most likely have a single use license, but thousands of users may use the font when they us

I appreciate your concerns. Let me see if I can ease them. The intention is to make this product as useful as possible at a good price. The license is in place to try and keep a few basic things from happening. 1.) Purchaser buys SoundKit t

A question for the group here, would a per project license be preferred over a per user license?

We just fixed the link. Thanks for catching this!

The license is designed to work like a font or stock photo license. It's allows for a specific user individual or within a company to use the sounds for as many projects as they'd like. From my experience this is typical for most

On the software side it's a combination of Reason for synth sounds and Audition for recording and editing. Sounds were recorded with the Reason Balance box and with a Zoom H6 portable recorder using various mics. Everything was mastere

CC can be great for a lot of things. The biggest issue is that many people require attribution which can be tricky depending on the project. But there are some good options for CC that work well.

Both good answers. I suppose that "serious" was unclear, and my point really was that there seems to be bias against these solutions. I'm trying to find out why and where the best developers are who use these solutions.

Ask HN: Are there serious developers working in CMS's like Drupal and Joomla?

Most of the time I just use Flickr. I search for what I'm looking for, then click the advanced search tab. Checking the "Only search within Creative Commons-licensed content" limits the results to stuff that copyright owners are willing to
