All Aboard! The Cartoon Express from Sound Ideas offers 10 jam-packed CDs that feature over 5,600 royalty free cartoon sound effects. It's a sound effect collection that's designed to make you laugh until you cry!

And that's not all - Cartoon Express also provides several octaves full of cartoon and comedy sounds from more than 30 different musical and percussion instruments. Choose just the right comedy accent from more than 3,700 trills, plucks, wobbles, twangs, bends, scratches, whistles, squeaks, squawks, honks, animal sounds, toots, zips, boings, pings, warbles, snaps, and hits, not to mention instruments that talk and laugh. And the Cartoon Express has an extra special caboose along for the ride - a DVD version of the CD content, offered in broadcast WAV format that has been embedded with a full set of search metadata. All the files have been mastered so that the sound effect descriptions, categories and other library information is stored within the file, making it visible and ready for immediate use in many different software applications in both the PC and MacIntosh platforms. These 16 bit 44.1 K BWF files can also be played on any conventional WAV media player.

Cartoon Express - your ticket to the funny fast track.

Sound Ideas has prepared this fully digital product on DVD ROM by converting their original Red Book Audio CDs to the broadcast WAV file format. The library's metadata is already embedded in the broadcast WAV BEXT containers, ready for easy access.

So, if you are using an asset content manager like the Sound Ideas MetaDigger software, you can simply download the digital audio files from your DVD ROM discs to your system and use MetaDigger to display, search and export their metadata information, audition the audio content and perform other functions with wav or mp3 files. It's that easy - the ripping and metadata work have already been done for you by Sound Ideas.
