LIBRARY TAB‌

Mixcraft’s Library tab contains thousands of loops, samples and sound effects, as well as number of song kits for royalty-free use within your own projects! Feel free to mix, loop, and edit them to your heart’s content. Mixcraft also offers direct browsing of Freesound.org’s massive online library of samples.

The Library tab includes categories and an easy-to-use search function that filter which sounds are currently displayed. This makes light work of navigating Mixcraft’s vast sound library. Following is a brief overview of each, but you can learn about them in detail in the subsections that follow.
