In their own words
SoundBits
SoundBits is a web service offering sound-effects libraries and bundles for multimedia projects. Its free Sound Effects Collection contains 285 files in a 2.1 GB download and includes metadata. These sounds may be used in linear commercial or non-commercial projects. The Starter Pack costs 10.00 EUR once, provides a selection from an original library, and includes a 10€ coupon toward that library. Paid library sounds carry a lifetime, worldwide, royalty-free synchronization license that is non-transferable and non-exclusive. The license covers musical, video game, and multimedia projects without a limit on usage frequency. Files arrive as BWF-tagged WAV, mostly 24-bit/96 kHz. Just Whoosh includes metadata and follows the Universal Category System. One purchaser may use sounds on two same-owner workstations; additional users need licenses. Downloads follow PayPal payment, and downloaded sales are final except at SoundBits’ discretion.
SoundMorph
SoundMorph sells downloadable sound-effects libraries, sound-design software, and drum products for film, games, music, trailers, and interactive media. PHUZE creates layered sounds through instant shuffle-based generation, including impacts, movement, creatures, weapons, interface sounds, and evolving textures. Its engine has three frequency bands and 12 sound emitters, with controls for each emitter and drag-and-drop sample loading; each band can hold up to 60 samples. PHUZE supports VST3, AU, and AAX, with AU limited to macOS. SoundMorph also offers DUST and Wave Warper 2, along with DR01D, a free retro sci-fi instrument that runs in a browser. Free demos of PHUZE, DUST, and Wave Warper 2 are available for Mac and Windows after newsletter signup. Products are digital downloads accessed through a SoundMorph account. A personal single license covers one user’s personal computers; more users require a multi-user license. Prices include PHUZE at $149.00 once and the Universe Bundle at $999 once. Purchases are non-refundable once made.
