I watch a lot of funny gaming moments videos from YouTubers like MiniLadd and VanossGaming. One thing that got me curious is how do they get sound effects and music that's heard every where else, and know if it's copyrighted or not (or usable in a video)? Like cartoon punch sound effects or dramatic sneaking music.

Most of the music they use is royalty free, sound effects are less than 1 second most of the time so noone would bother claiming that, it also falls under fair use.
If they are big enough YouTubers it's possible that they can mak deals with record companies.
Lots of royalty free sound effect sites around also.

With the Freesound you got to remember to credit but you can sometimes get a content ID on your video that you may have to flight it.
The site offers free sounds that you are able to use I believe... I haven't looked into their license agreement in a while but I'm pretty sure it's fine.
I use the site before and got a account. When you upload a file, you pick the license agreement you want e.g.
- zero (cc0): http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/
- attribution (by): http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

Yeah, not sure then. I see many other YouTubers using the site or epidemic sounds which you have to pay for after a 30 day trial.
Wait epidemic sounds 30 day trial?[DOUBLEPOST=1520700593][/DOUBLEPOST]That is free[DOUBLEPOST=1520700638][/DOUBLEPOST]https://www.freedom.tm/dashboard/epidemic
I think so yeah. With a limit on how many sounds/songs you can download per day or hour. Something like that.
