Question by icedtea26: Where can I find free sound effects and back beats for cheerleading?
Hi! I’m a new coach looking to save some money buy making my own music for our routine.

I’ve had a little luck finding cheerleading sound effects but I am looking for more! Any ideas?

There are some free SFX online but they are mostly things like cars screeching, or bells ringing, etc. Not really the standard cheer SFX, which could be good if you want to try something different.

Does your editing program not offer backbeats or is the variety too limited? You can buy SFX sets from pro DJs but they are not cheap. (Loest is $ 20 or so) http://www.cheermusicstore.com/index.php?cPath=24&osCsid=201cf111866156030e064474b72ee30e

I use this service and just mostly used the premixed music, which I put together in combinations that I like. I use Magix to put it all together, but if you don’t have a program yet and think you would like to buy music and SFX from the site above, get Sony’s Acid (even if it’s just the trial version.) The DJ uses Acid Pro and so any sony acid FX will supposedly automatically fit itself into the tempo of your mix.
