Installing Sounds

You can use curated sounds or add your own! Here’s how:

• Download sounds from the assets folder (curated by us).
• Or, find and download your own sounds from sites such as Pixabay or YouTube.

Supported formats: .wav, .mp3, .ogg, .flac, .aac, .m4a, .opus, .webm

Adding Sounds

1. Place your audio files in the plugin's assets directory:

   .obsidian/plugins/tick-tones/assets
   

   Note: You may need to create the assets folder if it doesn't exist.
2. The .obsidian directory is hidden by default. You can find it in your vault’s root folder.

Why do I need to manually install sounds?

Obsidian plugins cannot bundle large audio files directly. This keeps the plugin lightweight and lets you choose only the sounds you want.
