Sound design gets harder with no timeline, no layers, no undo, and only two hands.

Kristin Bolstad performs silent film sound in real time and created a vintage cartoon foley pack in Soundly.

Soundly sound engineer Hans is such a big REAPER fan he keeps a framed photo of its creator on his desk. We’re not saying he kisses it every morning. But we’re not not saying it either.

The new Soundly, released today, includes Find Similar, a powerful feature we’ve spent months perfecting. It analyzes any sound and instantly finds others that are just the right amount of different.

And there’s much more in the new update: GetSoundly.com

Soundly’s recording artists and sound designers added a whopping 3,141 new sounds in June. She got the number permanently tattooed, a decision she will never regret! It was done in VFX by us, but the dedication still counts… we think!

#noregrets #soundly #sounddesign

We recorded some massive stadium chants.

We’re almost certain they contain eternal wisdom, but we can’t decipher them!

We’ve passed it to colleagues, friends, family, even the HR department (our office plant). No luck.

What should we name the file?

We’re thrilled Soundly could help JujuProdGames out with sound effects, generated voices, and more in this super fun look at making a game from scratch. He also shares his, ehem, mixed emotions about following the Apple App Store’s guidelines.

When a gentleman asked us for proper British sounds, we didn’t muck about. We brewed a proper cuppa, ate a full English, zipped up our rain jackets, and went on an old nosy round the UK with mics in hand.

It’s all in Soundly, mate!

We’ve collaborated with filmmaker Piotr Toczynski for years, and we’re proud to support his latest short.

His legendary strikes are now available in Soundly.

Whip it up!

While in Primm, Nevada, we stumbled upon a short-course off-road race by SNORE—engines, dirt, and tire crunch included.

We were going to make a video about recording the sounds of our fancy new Jura coffee machine. But with our history of high-quality content, that felt way too unsophisticated.

We invite you to witness not just a film, but a moment where sound and existence converge.

When we received a request for more medieval sounds, we did the only logical thing: We bought a time machine on TEMU and sent our interns back to 1337 to capture real medieval sounds!

The memory card and the time machine made it back!

The interns… not so much. 😬

Soundly’s team of sound designers and recording artists kicked off the year with a bang, adding 4122 fresh sounds to the Pro Library in January! 💥
