AudioSparx (www.AudioSparx.com), originally named
UltimateSoundArchive.com, was the first site ever created on the
Internet for selling sound effects, loops, production music and
ringtones. The site, which went live in August, 1996, was created
by Quinn Coleman to provide an easily accessible sound effect
resource for anybody doing production work needing instant access
to any type of sound effect.
In July 2006 the company started
selling all tracks on the site for download as mobile phone
ringtones. The company is based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and is
now one of the top on-line destinations for finding digital audio
downloads. At present over 270,000 sound effects, loops and music
tracks are available for immediate licensing and download in WAV
and MP3 formats for personal or commercial use.

== Company Name and
History
On August 10, 1996, UltimateSoundArchive.com became the
first site on the Internet to sell sound effects. The site was
originally created by Quinn Coleman both as a learning project to
learn how to develop an e-commerce Web site, and to provide an
easily accessible sound effect resource for anybody doing
production work needing instant access to any type of sound effect.
The site grew in content and sales and then in February, 2001 the
name of the site was changed to AudioSparx.com when the site also
started publishing production music. In July 2006 the company
started selling all tracks on the site for download as mobile phone
ringtones, and created a mobile version of the site
(audiosparx.net) to facilitate mobile access to the audio content.
In December, 2006, a music-specific site was launched at
www.StockMusicSite.com to focus strictly on the marketing of
affordable quality stock music.
