Apologies, I couldn't think of anything else
to type for this section! With the above in
mind, I have created a flash file with samples
of button sounds I was considering for the project
website.
One
of my other considerations for the major project
website is to use some appropriate ambient music,
or perhaps something a little more racey.
The sounds opposite include some of those I
have found in my library or favourite sites.
3qsound
is a fantastic website and well worth a visit.
I have purchased tracks from this site many
times.
Most of the Site Sounds linked above I consider
to be appropriate for the project site i.e "Easy
Street". However, I felt that adding background
music to the site may not add much contribution
if any at all. Instead I may use sound bites
attached to hotspots to inform a user that an
action can be undertaken, for example: click
on button.
