I’ve used these tools a few times before, but couldn’t remember the names just now. Figured I’d post this for my future self. The next time I can’t remember, I’ll search my own blog.
Anyway, two cool tools, one a port of the other. The original is sfxr and you can get it here:

That’s Windows only, so if you’re on Mac, check cfxr here:
Both allow you to make random, or not so random 8-bit type sound effects for games, UIs or whatever. If nothing else, they are really fun to play with. 🙂
