Restricted Sound Effects

What are Restricted Sound Effects?

Restricted Sound Effects include the voices of individuals who have not signed releases for the use of their voice in commercial or other production applications. The Sound Ideas End User License Agreement does NOT cover your use of these Restricted Sound Effects and any use may infringe on a person's right of privacy or publicity. To use these Restricted Sound Effects legally, you must license the use separately from the purchase of the product from Sound Ideas or any of its dealers or distributors.

 Licensing the Voice of NASA

 When NASA released their audio files into the public domain, some of the tracks included the voice of Jack King, the Voice of NASA. As an individual and not a public figure, Jack King was entitled to control and license the use of his own voice. Use of these Restricted Sound Effects in a production or presentation absolutely requires special licensing directly from the Estate of Jack King, and probably requires additional licensing fees.
