We make tools for producers. Quality sound, fair prices, no hassle.
Our Philosophy: You Bought It, You Use It.
We are an audio company, not a law firm. Our purpose is to help you make great music, not to get in your way with complicated legal restrictions.
Royalty Free
All sounds, samples, and presets you purchase from Initial Audio are 100% Royalty Free. Use them in your beats, songs, film scores, and commercial productions without owing us a cent in royalties.
Simple Rules
- Use in commercial & non-commercial music.
- Use in TV, Film, and Advertisements.
- Don't re-sell the sounds as your own sample pack.
- Don't share your license/files with others.

Refund Policy
Because our products are digital downloads, we cannot "take back" the product once you have it. However, we want you to be happy.
We provide free demos for our VST plugins and audio/video walkthroughs for our expansion packs. Please try before you buy!
Refunds are generally not available once a digital product has been downloaded/activated. If you have a technical issue, our support team is here to help you solve it.
