Many techniques and parameters can be used to create your sound, whether it be from samples or your own recordings. To achieve this you need the right software, and in some cases hardware, to accurately sculpt any sound into the correct representation of your elements.
 Did you know that Apple used a bare casing of their Apple Watch and hit it with a percussion mallet to get their notification sound? Talk about originality, huh!

Creating your own unique UI sounds can be achieved by following a few simple rules. Sophistication and clarity will make the right impression.

  • Selecting the right sound for notifications as well as for ui elements.
  • Keeping effects to a minimum
  • Using high quality samples or recordings
  • Making your sounds line up with your action
  • Not stealing other peoples’ sounds, or violating copyright laws
  • Only using sounds that are royalty free

Who teaches Sound Design with Cubase? DesignCode (Meng To)

DesignCode (Meng To) thumbnail

DesignCode (designcode.io) is the online course platform of Meng To, a Vietnamese-Canadian designer-developer best known for the Design+Code book — one of the earliest works to seriously bridge interface design and iOS / SwiftUI implementation for designers learning to code.

The platform's distinctive contribution is the design ↔ engineering bridge: each course covers both the visual / design craft and the implementation in Swift / SwiftUI, React Native, or web. Course material covers SwiftUI app design, Figma design systems, animation in SwiftUI and CSS, the React / Tailwind front-end stack, and the broader design-engineering boundary that most pure-design or pure-coding courses don't address.

The CourseFlix listing under this source carries over 10 DesignCode courses spanning that range. Material is paid; DesignCode runs on a monthly / annual subscription on the original platform. Courses are aimed at designers learning to ship code or developers wanting to push their design craft.
