Sound Effects
Brush Ninja supports playing audio effects.
Note: These sound effects will not export with an animated gif. They can only be played back by playing the Brush.Ninja file.
To add sounds effects you should:
- Start by creating your cartoon. FX are added to frames so you need some that have been drawn for it to work.
- You should then decide which frames you want to play sound effects on.
- Select a frame that will play a sound and then look for the small Speaker icon under the frame image.
- Tick the sound(s) that you want to play and then press ‘Use’. You can preview the sound before playing it.
- Now when you play the animation the sound(s) will playback when the frame is displayed.
Some things to note:
- Free users have a collection of sound effects they can use for free. Paid Members get a larger collection of sounds to use.
- The sounds can take a little while to load so there may be a small delay in playing them the first time. Once they are loaded properly they will play smoothly.
