This week on A Sound Effect, we explore 17 new sound effects libraries covering a wide stretch of ground – from a two-month field recording expedition through South Africa and five hours of long-form rain to 597 Tesla coil sounds and a creature toolkit of tearing flesh and cracking bone.
You’ll also find household room tones and hardware, pre-war city ambiences from Kyiv, Lviv, and Chernivtsi, an hour of foliage foley made without real plants, distant gunshots captured at 32-bit, 192 kHz, a family-run Spanish hotel, 360 JRPG interface sounds, nine bundled horror libraries, five vehicle collections running from a hybrid estate to a Vespa scooter, and the complete Dromos 5.0 surround catalog.

Over five hours of long-form rain recorded throughout North America, from forest and grassland beds to gutters, drainboxes, and rain hitting steel plates and plastic bins.
