Hymnal Plus - The Leading Worship Music Solution
Whether you have trouble finding good, reliable organists (or other musicians), have no instrument or simply want good music available for outreach, the Hymnal Plus is the solution.
As well as churches, the Hymnal Plus is widely used by Schools and Colleges, Chaplaincies in the Armed Forces, Prisons and Hospitals, Retirement Homes, Retreat Centres, Christian Holiday Centres, Cruise Liners, Crematoriums and private individuals â all of whom find the Hymnal Plus provides their complete worship music needs.
As well as providing a complete worship music solution, the Hymnal Plus can also be used to fill in when the regular musician(s) can't make it. Use it for weddings, funerals and outreach. It's ready to play any time, anywhere.
Thousands of Tunes
The HT-400 Hymnal Plus takes music accompaniment for worship to a whole new level. Straight out of the box the HT-400 plays thousands of traditional hymns and modern worship songs, plus music for weddings and funerals. The standard UK repertoire includes over 2880 recordings, covering over 7300 hymn book entries.
Easy to Use
All the great features of the the HT-400 would be worth nothing if it couldn't be used by the average non-musical person. The HT-400's backlit LCD touch screen guides the user through the simple process of selecting a tune and then playing it. Whether changing the speed (tempo) and number of verses, adding an introduction, altering the pitch (key) - it's all laid out in the same clear, straightforward fashion.
Hear the Difference
The HT-400 utilises a unique high quality soundset, custom-voiced specifically for church use. Professional musicians have crafted the palette of over 200 sounds into 246 preset musical styles.
Star Wars. The Lord of the Rings. Home Alone. And most recently, Guardians of the Galaxy. Each of these films are outstanding.
I wasnât even born when Home Alone premiered, but 24 years later, it still holds up (itâs my favorite Christmas movie, by the way). And while Macaulay Culkinâs penchant for mischief and Joe Pesciâs inability to curse are two of the more enjoyable elements of Home Alone, the soundtrack is what truly holds the film together.
From beginning to end, the soundtrack of Home Alone â and the soundtrack of each the aforementioned films â provides the bedrock that supports the entire film.
Suffice it to say: John Williams will find you.
But what if you donât have John Williams scoring your latest church video? To answer that question, I point to Guardians of the Galaxy. What I find most interesting about this film was the soundtrack. Instead of an original score, the memorable music from the movie was comprised of songs from the 70âs. And this wasnât just a way to set the tone for the movie, it was a central plot point as well.

Point being, using existing songs in a soundtrack can be just as powerful as creating originals. It all comes down to finding the right song. Which, of course, leads to the question: Where can I find awesome music for my videos?
Before I list my favorite sites for finding audio tracks, I want to quickly cover the dull, but necessary, topic of licensing. The sites listed below all sell audio tracks that are âroyalty-free.â This means that once you purchase these tracks, you have the license to use them without needing to pay royalties.
Guardians of the Galaxy did not have this right with the songs they used. For instance, their use of Hooked on a Feeling by Blue Swede would be subject to royalties. The song belongs to the artist, so each time Guardians of the Galaxy uses it, a fee has to be paid to the owner of the copyright). Licensing fee administration can be a complicated and expensive procedure, so this article focuses solely on royalty-free tracks. If you want to know more about using licensed tracks in your videos, this is a helpful article.
Hereâs my personal suggestion. I use only music that is royalty-free in all my church videos, and I suggest you do the same.

Iâve listed eleven excellent sites below that sell royalty-free audio tracks. Truthfully, there are thousands of sites that do this across the web. But Iâve made hundreds upon hundreds of videos and Iâve never strayed from these these sites. Iâve always been able to find what Iâm looking for. Iâm confident you will too.
Each of the sites below comes with a brief description and a rank out of 10 when it comes to price, quality, and my overall experience with them.

1. Soundstripe (The Single Best Option)
Soundstripe is the most important site on this list. Why? Because theyâre disruptors. Licensing audio has always been an expensive task. A single track can easily cost upwards of $100. But Soundstripe has flipped the licensing model on its head. Instead of paying a flat fee for individual tracks, Soundstripe operates on a subscription model. Unlimited music for $10/month. Itâs insanity. And this is the single best option for churches.
Bottom Line: Soundstripe offers unlimited access to every one of their tracks for just $10/month. Itâs the best option for your church.
Price: 10/10 (You wonât find a better deal than this)
Quality: 9/10
Overall Experience: 9.5/10

2. Art List
Similar to Soundstripe, Art List uses a subscription model for licensing their audio tracks â but instead of a monthly cost of $10, they charge a yearly fee of $199. More expensive than Soundstripe, yes, but a great deal nonetheless (remember, a single track can easily cost $100 from other music sites). At Pro Church Tools, we use Soundstripe and Art List as our two primary sources for royalty-free music. Unlimited access to every track at these prices just canât be beat.
Bottom Line: Art List offers unlimited access to every one of their tracks for $199/year. A tremendous bargain.

3. Marmoset
Marmoset wants to help you find the perfect soundtrack for your next story. Personally, what I love most about Marmoset are the playlists. Every month Marmoset releases a mixtape for the given month and, more than that, Marmoset releases timely playlists. For instance, when the Stranger Things phenomenon was at its peak, Marmoset released a playlist called Stranger Things. And considering how many churches did knockoff sermon seriesâ based on Stranger Things, this mixtape likely came in handy for a bunch of them.
Marmoset also offers a podcast license. Podcast licensing can be tricky because the track needs to be re-used over and over. And this can get pricey. But Marmoset has a license dedicated to podcasting thatâs very affordable. Marmoset is where we found the music for the Pro Church Podcast.
Bottom Line: Marmoset does a great job of compiling playlists based on season and culture. They also offer the best podcasting license.

4. Storyworks
Storyworks is a newer royalty-free music site (as of this writing itâs still in beta). Storyworksâ claim to fame is that every track available on the site has a single licensing fee of $129. Obviously, for most smaller projects this isnât exactly a bargain. But as Iâve mentioned several times already, royalty-free music licensing can get very expensive, very quickly.
For instance, productions with a large audience can easily require audio tracks licensed at more than $1000 each. And thatâs where Storyworks really shines.
Bottom Line: Storyworks isnât the best option for churches working on small projects. But for a bigger production that would typically require a hefty licensing fee for audio, Storyworks may be the perfect solution.
Price: 6/10
Quality: 9/10

5. Jukedeck
Jukedeck wants you to have the ability to create your own audio track tailored to your precise acoustical needs. When you land on Jukedeckâs homepage youâll see a simple formula: Style + Mood + Length = Your Custom Track. Fill in the variables and Jukedeckâs algorithm will pump out a custom tune for you with your exact specifications in 30 seconds or less. Itâs a novel concept, but it can be helpful if you need a track of an exact length.
Naturally, the quality of the tracks arenât as high at Jukedeck as other sites on this list, but that can only be expected when youâre enforcing as many restrictions on a track as the Jukedeck formula demands. Though, what wasnât expected was the pricing. If your church has 10 or less employees, Jukedeckâs tracks are free if you give the site credit, or just $0.99 if you donât want to them credit.
Bottom Line: Jukedeckâs formulaic generator is a novel concept, but the quality of the tracks leaves something to be desired. With that being said, the pricing is insanely affordable at just $0.99 per track â and having the ability to set the precise length of your track can be very helpful.

6. Audiojungle
Audiojungle is one of the most inexpensive sites on this list. The cost per track ranges from $10-$18. AudioJungle is part of the Envato marketplace, and that means artists from all over the world are contributing to the selections of music. AudioJungle also has a wide selection of sound effects â not just audio tracks. I used AudioJungle almost exclusively when I began creating videos. You can find higher quality tracks elsewhere, but the price is hard to beat when youâre just starting out.
Bottom Line: The majority of music youâll find in the Audiojungle marketplace is very low-quality, but if youâre willing to spend some time digging, you can find hidden gems at a very affordable cost.
Price: 9/10
Quality: 5/10
Overall Experience: 7/10

7. PremiumBeat
One of my favorite features of PremiumBeat is that your purchase of a song comes with loops as well as the full version. This is especially useful for video announcements and interviews where the length of the video is always undetermined. Iâve used PremiumBeat in the past for podcast music, and The Church Video Series music. Each track will cost you $49. And that will give you the full version of the track, the loops, and a short version as well. PremiumBeatâs licensing is also very generous: simply purchase the license once and you can use it for an unlimited number of projects.
Bottom Line: Every PremiumBeat track comes with three different versions: short, long, and loops (Iâve found the loops to be especially helpful). Moreover, PremiumBeatâs license allows you to use your purchased tracks for an unlimited number of projects.

8. Musicbed
Musicbedâs current tagline is âLicensing quality music to the worldâs biggest brand.â And thereâs a reason that Nike, Netflix, and Google all use Musicbed when they need to license royalty-free audio. Musicbed is the cream of the crop when it comes to royalty-free music. Their websiteâs UI, their catalogue, customer service, and quality of music are all world-class. But, in this instance, if you want the best, youâre going to pay the most. The exact price of a track depends on a variety of factors (you may even need a custom quote), but you can expect to pay approximately $100 per song.
Bottom Line: Musicbed offers the largest catalogue of high quality royalty-free music, but at the highest price.
Price: 5/10
Quality: 10/10

9. Seeds by Church on the Move (Free)
Even though Church on the Move hasnât hosted a Seeds Conference in a couple of years, their catalogue of free resources is still a treasure trove for churches. Here youâll find close to 100 original audio tracks composed by the good folks at Church on the Move. Theyâve used these tracks in the past for productions of their own, and now theyâre passing them on to you for use at your church.
Keep in mind, Church on the Move distributes these resources for churches only. So unless youâre a non-profit religious ministry/church spreading the good news of Jesus Christ, donât go and start using these tracks in your productions.
Bottom Line: Church on the Move has produced close to 100 original tracks over the years for their own productions, here you can download these tracks for use in your own church.

10. YouTube Audio Library (Free)
YouTube offers its creators a free audio library searchable by genre, mood, instrument, and duration. Youâll also find sound effects here too. The tracks youâll find in YouTubeâs Audio Library arenât exactly geared towards cinematic storytelling, but depending on the project you may be able to find a track that works for you.
Bottom Line: If you have an account with YouTube, you have unlimited access to their YouTube Audio Library. The quality of tracks youâll find here is hit and miss, but hey, itâs free.

11. Soundcloud (Free)
Soundcloud has a special distinction for tracks uploaded under a Creative Commons license. Youâre free to use these tracks in your productions as long as you follow the rules of the specific license. Granted, finding these tracks on Soundcloud can be difficult. There isnât a Soundcloud moderated playlist or section of tracks so youâll need to go digging yourself.
One way to do this is search for tracks with the âto modify commerciallyâ setting applied to filter results (you can do that by clicking here). Another option is to find a playlist compiled by a Soundcloud user of Creative Commons tracks â hereâs the best one Iâve found so far.
Bottom Line: Soundcloud has thousands of free tracks that you can use under the Creative Commons license, though it will require some digging to find the right track for your production

Conclusion
The royalty-free music landscape is changing rapidly. Companies like Soundstripe are coming along and undercutting the market with insanely affordable subscription models. And this is forcing longtime juggernauts of the industry like Musicbed to change their focus.
Musicbed used to be the site for indie filmmakers to find their perfect track, but now that more affordable sites have come along, Musicbed has shifted their focus to the biggest brands in the world. All of this has happened in just about 18 months â which that speaks to the fluidity of the industry.
With that being said, each of these sites has their own claim to fame and their own strengths and weaknesses. How you use each site can and should be different, but Iâm confident youâll be able to find whatever you need for a wide range of projects.
