Filters
Narrow results by pack, by duration, or to favorites only. History filters by date instead.
Tabs
Search several packs at once. Each search keeps its own tab, named after what you searched for and holding its own filters and selection.
Packs
Every pack is produced and mixed by our award-winning composer, with its own (human-made) artwork, description, sound count and total runtime. New packs arrive regularly and sync in the background.

One-click Sync
Every sound carries a hand-picked Cue Point™ marking its impact. Add drops a sound at your playhead with the cue on that frame. Swap replaces a clip where it sits. Cue layers another sound onto the same moment. Set an Auto-Mix range and nothing lands at 0 dB dead center.
Auto-Mix
Set a volume and pan range once and everything you place lands inside it. Each parameter has its own switch, so you can randomize pan and leave volume alone.
Add
Every sound carries a hand-picked Cue Point™ marking its impact. Add drops the sound on the next free audio track with that cue landing on your playhead.
Swap
Wrong sound? Select the clip, pick another, hit Swap. The clip is replaced where it sits with its Cue Point™ on the same frame. No re-trimming, no nudging.

Swap
Wrong sound? Select the clip, pick another, hit Swap. The clip is replaced where it sits with its Cue Point™ on the same frame. No re-trimming, no nudging.
Cue
Cue layers another sound onto a new track, aligned to the same Cue Point™ as the clip you have selected.
Auto-Mix
Set a volume and pan range once and everything you place lands inside it. Each parameter has its own switch, so you can randomize pan and leave volume alone.
Mixing
Every sound in your comp is a point in a dome, where distance from the center is volume and angle is pan. Drag a point and the clip on your timeline follows.
Audio Skins
Turn on Audio Skins and the selected sound draws lines to the ones before and after it, with arrows showing which way the mix is moving.
Constellation™
Your whole project becomes a constellation. Every sound takes a place in the field, and mixing is a matter of moving through that space until everything sits where it should.
The Project List
Every sound you’ve placed, with its volume on a slider and its pan on a knob, reading out in dB and degrees. Sort by any column, search within the comp, and select rows to mix them as a group.

Auto-Mix & Distribute
Select the sounds, set a volume and pan range, and preview it as a wedge on the dome before you commit. Auto-Mix randomizes inside the range; Distribute spreads the selection evenly across it.

“I use it all the time when adding final touches, aka subtle SFXs to my project. Love how convenient it is, as I hate manually downloading every little sfx and dragging them inside premiere.”
Raphael T.
“Boombox saved me so much time doing sound design. Everything is right inside Premiere, rather than roundtripping out to an SFX library site, listening, downloading, importing, testing, purchasing, re-downloading and replacing...FOR EVERY SINGLE SOUND. Boombox is an incredible idea and a great execution on that idea. Gamechanger.”
