Why ReadySFX
Sound effects for games, videos and film — made the fair way.
Made by people
Every sound has to be substantially its creator's own work. Sounds that are mostly AI-generated aren't allowed.
No Content ID
Sounds sold here may not be registered with YouTube Content ID, so they shouldn't trigger claims — and every purchase comes with a licence certificate if you ever need to clear one.
Custom sounds, made for you

Separate parts included
A crossbow's shot and reload can come as their own files too, so you can time each one to your animation.
Try it in your edit
Download the watermarked preview and test it in your video or game before you buy.
