It looks like there has been some design work for the Openverse interface, yellow colors, etc, but the big news is a beta search for CC licensed audio.
So I have to see what they have by searching on “dog”
I see a mixture of music tracks (don’t you want to listen to Batman Loves My Dog?) as well as sound effects like Sheep, Dogs, Horse, and Light Rain.
Results provide a player, download, license details, tags, and one one of the best things-- cut and paste text for attribution. Here take a listen to Dogs Drinking Water
Search filters include by specific license, category (music, sound effects, or podcast), duration (short, medium, long), file type (mp3, ogg, flac, but I note I saw wav results too) and source ( FreeSound, Jamendo, or Wikimedia Commons). This is beta so I would bet more sources will be added – among my favorites for audio is the Free Music Archive and ccMixter)
But I am excited to see audio media tossed into the search, and that you can be sure more will be added.
Openverse sounds like a good place to find open licensed audio…
