We have used two sources for the music in our videos. One is the canned music available in Pinnacle Studio, a video editing software package. The other is royalty free music available from Freeplay. Since we purchased these packages, we have full rights to use this music in our animation. We only use 3dsMax to animate, and then move the clip into a video editing program to put the final animation together. We render in 3dsMax at highest quality, and do our compression (Cinepak) with the video editing software.
We have also recorded sounds from our robot interacting with the playing field (pneumatics, gripping the bar to hang in 2003, etc.). These are very easy to place using a video editing package.
