Scroll-stopping audio in seconds

On social media, you have about 1.5 seconds before someone swipes. The right sound effect in the first frame is often the difference between a scroll and a view. Effct is built for the pace of social content creation. Upload your short-form video, choose Energetic or Playful, and get punchy, attention-grabbing sound design that matches the energy of the platform. No more scrolling through Freesound.org for 45 minutes to find one swoosh.
