Freesound Forums

I just joined this site. Great sounds but how do I download them? When I try to save them the extension is .htm and not wav. Bob

Don't hit ctrl+s or file--> save (that way you will save the web page, which will usually be saved as a .htm).
When you go to the particular sound you want to download, you hit the yellow "download" sound button on the right.

Your reply is much appreciated. Thank you for helping.

Well I guess I am still missing something. I found a download button on one page but have searched and played a number of sounds with no download option.

You need to go to the sound's download page to download it. Searching for the sound will give you a "results" page and a lot of sounds will be displayed. Click on the name of the sound you want to download and it'll take you to that individual sound's page; that's where you download it from.

Also, this doesn't seem like the issue, but jsut in case double check that you are logged in to freesound when you're trying to download the sound.

Mission accomplished. Thank you.
