Where You Can Use Epidemic Sound: App, Plugins, and the Web Catalog

You can reach Epidemic Sound in three places: its website (the full music and sound-effects catalog), its mobile app for iOS and Android, and a plugin for Adobe and DaVinci Resolve Studio. Which one you need depends on whether you are browsing and downloading tracks, editing on the go, or soundtracking inside your video editor. All three draw on the same licensed catalog, so the choice is about workflow, not access to different music.

The web catalog: browsing and downloading

The site is the main library. Tracks and sound effects are organized by genres, themes, moods, and sound effects, with use-case collections such as Ads, Promos & Trailers, Vlogs, Cinematic, Travel, Corporate, Workout & Wellness, Sports & Action, and Nature. An "Explore all music" entry leads to the full catalog.

Two search tools sit alongside normal browsing:

• Search by video — you supply video frames and the system suggests tracks based on what is in your content.
• Find similar — you supply a reference piece of music (a riff, hook, drop, or bridge) and it returns tracks with a similar tone and sound.

The site also surfaces exclusive tracks from named artists and producers, plus playlists and product news. This is the place to start if you are choosing music for a project and want to audition options before downloading.

The mobile app: discovering and downloading on the go

The Epidemic Sound app is listed on the App Store and Google Play. Its stated purpose is to discover and download music while away from your desk — useful if you shoot or edit on a phone or tablet and need a track before you get back to a computer. It is a companion to the web catalog rather than a replacement for the editing-side tools.

The plugin: soundtracking inside your editor

The Epidemic Sound plugin is available for Adobe and DaVinci Resolve Studio. This is the option for keeping your editing timeline and your music search in one window instead of switching to a browser and importing files manually. If your work happens entirely in Premiere Pro or Resolve, the plugin is the most direct route.

Studio: the soundtracking tool

Studio is Epidemic Sound's own soundtracking environment. The site describes it as syncing human-made music and sound effects to your video "at AI speed," and notes recent updates that improved creative control, user experience, and audio quality. Studio is the tool to look at if you want the music to follow the pacing of your edit rather than placing tracks by hand.

Choosing between them

Practical notes before you start

• Licensing is consistent across access points. Epidemic Sound states its music and sound effects are royalty-free, with worldwide use and all rights included. The same catalog terms apply whether you download via the site, the app, or the plugin.
• Account creation is free and requires no credit card, per the site's "Create free account" prompt. That gets you in the door; the site also offers a "Contact sales" path, which is aimed at teams and organizations rather than individual creators.
• Check current pricing on the pricing page rather than assuming a plan tier — the site links to a dedicated Pricing page but the page evidence here does not list amounts or plan limits.
• Verify plugin compatibility with your specific Adobe application or Resolve Studio version before relying on it in a deadline project.

If you are unsure where to begin, open the web catalog first to find the sound, then decide whether your editing setup justifies adding the plugin or the app to your routine.
