Dicing With Design: Role Playing, Wargaming, Card 6640c

Music isn't essential. The show's all about your voice, after all. But there's something special about hearing that familiar riff, just before your favourite host starts to speak. It's memorable, it puts you in the mood, and, let's face it, it makes the host sound PRO! So, as a part of our mission to help podcasters to get their voices out into the world, we've released a library of free podcast music to help you get started in building your own audio brand. You'll find a few free podcast music libraries around, but ours is the only one that offers themed podcast music packs, with all the elements you need to brand your entire show, start to finish.

Alitu lets you add theme music to the start and end of your show automatically. It also makes it super-easy to pop transitions and sound FX in between transitions, through it's podcast episode builder. The thing is, a nice bit of theme music makes you sound great. But a full pack makes you sound like you're a podcast professional! Here's how it works: Your show starts with a 10s to 20s bit of theme music, which fades out naturally into the voice You speak your intro, and then a 4s ‘transition' plays, between that and your interview. It sounds just like your theme music, but short! Your interview finishes, and a 6s ‘transition' plays, leading into your outro Under your 3 minute outro, a loop plays which, again, sounds just like your theme, but is tailored to loop. From there, your outro music plays, 30s+, perhaps with a standard voiceover which offers your standard call-to-action. That's what a music pack includes. An intro, and intro, a background loop for longer segments, and then some stinger transitions. They all sound similar – all variations of the one theme tune – so you sound like you've been professional produced, like a radio show Is it Really Free Music, for Any Use? Yep!
