This sci-fi soundboard has laser guns and phasers, robots and computer beeps, electric zaps, force fields and power downs, plus spaceships and rocket launches. Every sci-fi sound effect plays in your browser, on a phone or a computer, with nothing to install.

Sci-Fi Sounds, One Tap Each

Every button on this sci-fi soundboard is a sound from the future: press it and it plays straight away, with nothing to scrub through. The sound effects are grouped by what makes them, from robots and computers to electricity and energy, lasers and blasters, and spaceships and rockets. Tap a button again to stop it, or press Random sci-fi sound and let the board pick.

Laser Sound Effects: Laser Guns and Phasers

A laser gun is a quick, bright zap and a phaser is a longer, humming blast, the two sounds most people want for a space battle, a toy blaster or a pretend shootout in the living room. Play them one after another and you have a firefight.

Robot Sounds, Computer Beeps and Sci-Fi Doors

Robots whir, computers beep and a sliding door hisses open on a spaceship corridor. These are the sounds of a machine doing something clever, and they suit a robot voice bit, an AI joke, a hacker scene or a sci-fi short film.

Electric Zaps, Force Fields and Power Downs

Energy sounds carry the drama: an electric zap, a force field that hums to life and a power down that winds a machine slowly to a stop. Use the power down when the lights go out or a plan collapses, and the force field when something needs protecting.

Spaceship and Rocket Sound Effects

Launch a rocket, fly a spaceship past and fill a room with space sound effects for a kids' party, a game night or a podcast about the stars. For scarier sounds from the dark, there is the scary soundboard, and the full soundboard has the rest.

Questions, Answered

How do I use the sci-fi soundboard?

Tap any button and the sound plays straight away in your browser. Tap it again to stop, press Random sci-fi sound for a surprise, or Stop to cut whatever is playing. It works the same on a phone, a tablet or a computer.

Is there a laser sound effect?

Yes. The lasers and blasters row has a laser gun and a phaser, the two blaster sounds people reach for first.

Are there robot sound effects?

Yes. The robots and computers row has a robot, computer beeps and a sci-fi door, the sounds of a machine at work.

Are there space sound effects?

Yes. The spaceships and rockets row has a spaceship and a rocket launch, and the energy row adds a force field, an electric zap and a power down.

Can I use these sounds in a video or a game?

The board is for playing sounds live, from your phone or computer, in a stream, a call or a room. Play a sci-fi sound right on cue while you film or stream and it lands the same way.

Are the sci-fi sounds free?

Yes. Every sci-fi sound on the board is free to play, with no sign-up and nothing to install.

Does the sci-fi soundboard work on a phone?

It works in any browser on an iPhone, an Android phone, a tablet, a Mac or a PC. Phones only play sound after a tap, so the first sound starts the moment you press a button.

For laughs only. Keep the volume sensible and let people in on the joke.
