"With literally MILLIONS of pieces of audio, it would be incredibly intimidating to work with were it not for the amazing search functions baked into the Alpha experience. Any type of music bed you can imagine is at your fingertips, often with lots of stems and work parts included to play with. Plenty of sound design and radio-friendly imaging tools as well make Alpha a superior one-stop shop for our production needs. Also love their openness to feedback and responsiveness!"

"For the last 4 years I've used Alpha libraries for commercial production. I Voice, write and produce for New York City, Washington DC, Philadelphia, Atlanta , Baltimore, Hartford, Radio.com and other large markets here in the U.S. Alpha has the absolute best music and SFX library that I've ever used. Hands down, if you want to sound like the best, you got to use the best. In 20 years, I've never seen a library so comprehensive in all music genres. The last three awards I've won were spots using Alpha Libraries music and SFX. I can create anything the client wants with Alpha Libraries. The best in the business."

"Just wanted to send a note of thanks for the incredible work you all do at Alpha Libraries. From a production director’s perspective, the music is such a vital component to any spot/commercial. It is what tells the story… Since we have become a client of Alpha Libraries, several of our regular Underwriters/Sponsors have actually replied back to us stating how “the sound is exactly what they wanted”. As we continue to work in an environment that is constantly changing, it is a blessing to know that we have a company like Alpha Libraries that we can rely on to continue to provide amazing production music that is spot on.. Steve, outside of the outstanding music, I also want to express my thanks to you for being such a great representative for Alpha Libraries. Your attention and dedication to your clients is commendable. Thanks again for everything!!!"

"The team at Alpha Libraries has over and over gone above and beyond for me when I’ve needed help to either find an old music bed from years ago or even give ideas and options for something fresh for a client. The library is fantastic with so many options and what I love about Alpha is they have so many options to help out either on your own or to even reach out to someone like Steve Wall who I’ve easily asked multiple times for assistance and not only does everything get to me in a timely manner but every time they knock it out of the park with their suggestions. I’m very thankful to have the Alpha team be a big help with us here at WCBS 880!” You have been a great help especially you Steve!!"

"When you’re producing as many pieces daily as we are at the iHeart National Imaging team, having access to the right music for EVERY request is essential. Alpha Libraries ensures I am able to find the perfect building blocks to anything that comes up, and will even act as a source of inspiration for things we have yet to see someone ask for.
Whether it’s music, sound design, or even foley sound effects, I know I can count on Alpha Libraries to deliver the goods. I never have to run down the hall to a storage closet looking for the right SFX CD (or find a CD ripper), and I know that even the odd polka track for an Oktoberfest promotion will be a snap to find.I’m confident that I wouldn’t be able to deliver the amount of finished audio to our stations in the timeframe that keeps everyone happy without the help of Alpha Music Libraries!

National Imaging Producer at iHeartMedia Inc.
"Call me if you don’t believe me because it might sound like they paid me to write this. They didn’t. Alpha Libraries is MASSIVE. It’s so easy to use even the Market President uses it. The best part, our Sales Team uses it and they’ve turned great sounding production from it into $$$$. Because the library is so huge we can find the perfect music to fit a new client and guarantee it’s theirs exclusively. I have never heard or seen a better library than Alpha Libraries."

"One of the most challenging things a creative director can face is finding that perfect bed or effect to make their spot or segment. You can spend HOURS searching through some libraries, but the comprehensive search engine filters on Alpha Libraries make finding your perfect element a breeze...and there is so much variety that your production will never have the cookie-cutter sound of a single production-studio library!"
Randy Brooks
KIX 102.5 Program Director Zimmer Radio Joplin MO
"Alpha Libraries is by far the best sound effects and music library on the market in my opinion. I have used many others in my career in commercial and public radio & TV production. Alpha comes out with new albums daily, so I always have a huge selection that stays fresh. Their music is never outdated, it is always relevant to the current sound and music styles of the present as well as old school sounds. Overall, this Library makes my life easier and elevates the quality of the sound on all formats. Having this tool has been a game changer for me and my staff. Thank you!"

”I LOVE your music service. I always thought our previous library was the best. However, after using Alpha Libraries for Radio for a couple of months I was a convert. Alpha Rocks! I think the overall sound of your music is better, the variety is better, and the web interface is better (much better!).” {Years later I still feel exactly the same. Hands down the absolute best in the business.}

I have almost 20 years in the radio industry and Alpha Libraries for Radio is my all time favorite music library. It is the most comprehensive music library I’ve ever used. I love the search features. I’m really able to narrow down just what I’m looking for. If I can’t find it, they are quick to help. Having it completely digital makes working remotely a breeze. No matter where I’m working from, I have access to millions of music beds, imaging elements and sound effects. They get my highest recommendation. I won’t use anything else!

"Music selection has always been the absolute most tedious and time-consuming part of any production project, often wasting hours culling through a dated CD library to find just the right beds. Alpha Libraries for Radio has simplified and streamlined the process beautifully with their massive collection of music and SFX literally at my fingertips. Spots and promos are completed much faster now, thanks to Alpha Libraries."

“Elvis always wants the best and that’s what we give to him. Alpha Libraries for Radio has taken our imaging and production to the next level.
The fact that I feel we were already pretty close to the top in both those areas just goes to show how comprehensive this library actually is!”
Nate Marino
Producer, Elvis Duran and the Morning Show
“I started on a sonic journey of discovery with Alpha Music Libraries 5 years ago. To say that “after all this time” we’ve barely scratched the surface, is a fact. They constantly add new libraries and sound design, and that keeps my ears buzzing. When I started down the road of audio production and sound design 26 years ago, we had “a smattering” of a CD Library to work with. Times have indeed changed. The depth and volume of music and effects in this library are like the stars dotting the heavens, and I’m not even close to being done exploring it. I’ve said it before and it remains true to this day, it’s the best production library in existence.”

”What we create between the songs on our stations is what gives us the edge. Alpha Libraries for Radio has taken our stations in Honolulu to the next level in sound production. From creating sizzling imaging packages for our stations to selecting tracks for promos and commercials. I haven’t seen anything else that even comes close or compares. I’ve always enjoyed being on the cutting edge with my stations and with Alpha Libraries on my team you can hear the advantage. This is the production library my staff can’t live without!“

"With the amount of produced things we do at one Putt Broadcasting, from spots, promos, reads, or anything that can help us in a highly competitive marketplace, Alpha Libraries for Radio gives us that edge we need to produce and execute, both for clients and the sound of our 7 radio stations.”
Jason Squires

Alpha Libraries for Radio is the most comprehensive music and SFX library we have ever used. Tracks are added weekly. The SFX section includes Voice Clips of people saying different things and one of our sales people used clips from that category to create almost an entire ad and it won a broadcast award. I can search for a style or mood of music and usually find what I'm looking for within the first 5 tracks that populate.

"I've been in radio forever, and I've seen many production music libraries. Some of them are very good. But Alpha Libraries for Radio is beyond good. It's not just A library. It's a library of libraries. It is THE best and biggest production music library I have ever used. You're like a kid walking into the neighborhood candy store. But as soon as you open the door, you realize you've walked into a huge warehouse, no the manufacturing plant, where every single candy ever conceived is available to you. You know that scene in Harry Potter? When they walk into the little pup tent. But after they enter, it's like a hotel suite. That's what Alpha Libraries is like. And the library keeps getting bigger. Oh, and it also comes with a suite of sound effect libraries. That's a cool bonus. Bottom line: if you're not using Alpha Libraries for Radio, you're not using the best library out there."
