This week on A Sound Effect, we have an interesting collection of new libraries that will get your creative juices flowing.
Please share:
You can hear ambiences from busy Hong Kong streets, relaxed Adriatic shores, downtown intersections, English football matches, Rome's outskirts and city center, and even fantasy worlds!
If you are looking for something that will make you think about your design in a different way, check out tangible yet abstract textures and dramatic vocal phrases that are thick with reverb.
Plus, we have sounds for your stealth games, as well as fun, darting Fiats!
Happy listening!
