Hi Everyone,

I’m just getting started with Unreal Engine and really loving it so far! I’ve been working through tutorials on blueprints, materials, UI, and most recently AI!

The one area that seems to have a bit of a gap is sound/audio. I’ve been able to create most other assets but I’ve gotten stumped here and I’m struggling to either make or find some starter sounds to kickstart a game I’m casually developing.

There’s a few packs on the marketplace but they are generally quite specialised for a theme (e.g. medieval) and/or very expensive (>$50).

Could anyone recommend a good starter sound pack for beginners to play around with that doesn’t break the bank?

Cheers!

Because it’s sound, you can buy it from anywhere.

The two places I’ve noticed that really stand out are:

Lots of general and specialized sounds, and a free starter pack.

And when you want more specialized, go to

https://www.soundmorph.com/

You might think it’s a bit expensive, but these are the guys that do hollywood movies. They also give you some stuff for free.

Thanks, great resources. I’ll also add one I’ve found since which take a bit more sifting but there’s some gold in there:

Was just thinking it would be awesome if Epic bought out a sound design studio - similar to what they have done with Megascans to give creators access to quality SFX!
