Sound and video files

The sounds and videos on this site use industry standard formats that your computer is likely already able to play. Sounds are encoded either as MP3 or MIDI files, and all videos are H.264 encoded in an MP4 container.

If you have the Abobe Flash Player plugin installed (version 9 or better), you will be able to view the videos and play most of the sounds directly in your browser. If not, you will be able to download the files to your computer to play them back in another program. QuickTime 7 is able to playback all of our sound and video files on both Mac and Windows computers.
