Freesound Forums

Hi, I'm fairly new to this website, and I'm having a difficult time finding the right sounds for the production I'm in. Right now I'm in desperate need of:

-a single gunshot (from a revolver)
-a motorboat horn

and possibly creepy scene change music? That I can likely find myself. I've looked on the sight for both those sounds, and have found minimal results. Any help, even if it's very little would be appreciated.

Plenty of gunshots on here.

As for the boat horn, what about this? http://freesound.iua.upf.edu/samplesViewSingle.php?id=23452

Came up #1 on a search for "boat horn".

If these samples aren't what you're looking for please say why...

Your requests sound similar to cues I designed for a production of
Agatha Christie's: "And Then There Were None" or "Ten Little Indians"

Hmmmmm

I used a simple Air horn (as used at your less fashionable sporting events) for the motorboat.

And as said before - there are plenty of gunshots around here.

As far as creepy music - you have a couple of choices. If you can drop some cash - you can put together some good underscoring with Sony's Acid application and various libraries (for creepy, try: Cinematix, Orchestral, Abient Realms, Bill Laswell, and Liquid Planet)- There are also Stack Traxx and BackTraxx 2 (a royalty free music library) from Digital Juice.
