Hi y'all, does anybody recognize these sounds https://freesound.org/people/FilmmakersManual/sounds from sound libraries? The level of quality, effort and intension of these uploads make me suspect they might be ripped but I lack the industry experience to be able to recognize anything from big libraries.

Sure you spotted this qubodup, but I write to warn the community at large, which I quite understand would be unprofessional for you to do.

Very questionable "www.filmmaker..." spam links in profile. They put you into a spam loop when you try to use the browser back/forward buttons to return to freesound.

Users downloads seems randomly legitimate but no activity visible since 2020.

Sorry I can't help with legitimacy question of the uploaded sounds I'm afraid.

If you can't get a response DMing the user I think it safer to regard it as spam and delete the account simply to protect the integrity of FSound.

Currently deferring the sounds, its pretty clear this user has stolen these sounds from Boom Library and many other sources such as the video game title "Halo" and probably many others.

Create what you want to hear.

There is only one sound from FilmmakersManual left now.......remarkable...

To hear, you first have to listen
