Exploding into our number
10 spot on the countdown
is a sound effect that
reverberates through the room.

impactful sound that will echo through
the listeners thoughts will
benefit from utilising this effect.
Number 9 - Kids Playing in Park Ambience by SoundJay
This sound effect may
leave listeners reminiscent of
the good old days, playing
in the park with friends…
or it could be the ambient
background noise picked
up in a crime scene
investigation TV show or movie.
The scope of this effect
is practically limitless.
Number 8 – Window Break by Sound-Ideas
The sound of a window smashing
might cause you to wince,
but it’s the perfect way to add a
dramatic edge to your media.
A short film, a
theatre production
or an advertisement
for a local glazier could
all use this sound
effectively to garner
attention and draw
listeners or viewers in.
Number 7 - Collect Item by GameChestAudio
This sound is every
gamer’s delight!
Perhaps you collected
an item on the quest
to find an invaluable
lost treasure or
completed a side-quest
while tracking down an
evil wizard who stole
the key to immortality.
What’s your next move?
The choice is all yours!
Number 6 – Missile Launch & Explode by applehillstudios
War films, video games and
documentaries would all be perfect
matches for this missile launch
and explosion sound effect.
Pair it with some
gunfire, some exciting
visuals and a
captain frantically
yelling orders and
you’ve got yourself
a riveting cinematic
production.
With a bang and a crash,
and a snap-crackle-pop,
we’ve reached the middle of
this top 10 sound effects list!

Number 5 - Mysterious Synthesized
Howling by MountainAudio
If you’ve been
searching for an eerie
sound effect, this
one takes the cake.
Our number 5 sound
on this list of Envato
Elements best sound
effects of 2020 will leave
your listener’s skin
crawling, and their ears
protesting at hearing
this super creepy tone –
all the better to hit
them with a jump scare to
shock them silly while their
senses are preoccupied!
Number 4 – Splat Down by Cinematic_Designs
This sound effect is the
epitome of a “sickening crunch”.
If you use your imagination,
there are many ways to
utilise this feature
to really make an impact, both in
your media and on your audience.
It is perfectly suited to any project
requiring cartoon or animation.
Number 3 – Pencil Scribbles &
Strokes Pack by SchwartzSound
An array of scribbling
sounds and pencil
strokes make up
this sound effect pack.
From drawing one long,
aggressive line across a page,
to scribbling out a
word that was spelled
incorrectly in an
exam these effects
provide more than
enough options for use in
any type of project
involving penmanship.
Number 2 - Small Bar Crowd
Ambience by StormwaveAudio
Think of your favourite sit-com.
There’s a high chance that at
some point, a scene was set in a
bar, café or crowded environment.
This is the perfect sound
effect for those such scenes.
Cheers, Friends, It’s
Always Sunny in Philadelphia;
by incorporating this
ambience track from Envato
Elements, your production
could be the next big hit!
Number 1 – Record Scratch by SoundJay
The number one entry on this
Top 10 list of Envato Elements best
sound effects for 2020 is one
that you all should recognise:
the highly uncomfortable
sound of a record scratching.
Usually used to signify
the end of a feature,

interruption within a
form of media, this
is an effect that every
creator should have
at their disposal.
