    This isn’t a typical Drone library. These sounds, for the most part morph and change over time. Some rise, some fall, while others are constant and dark. Creating tension and uncertainty was the direction I was headed.
    There are some ‘light-hearted‘ tracks that are intended to shape a more positive feeling, while the majority of the tracks are in a sense, denser, darker and more emotive, intending on creating uneasiness, uncertainty, and most definitely tension within a scene.

  • Animal Sound Effects Collections Animal Hyperrealism Vol II Play Track 2000+ sounds included $180

    Animal Hyperrealism Vol II is a library containing sounds themed animal vocalisations, from real to designed creatures totaling more than 2000 individual sounds in 283 files.

For these sounds an additional microphone was employed, specifically the CMPA by Avisoft-Bioacoustics which records up to 200 KHz. This microphone was actually used to record most of the library but the 384KHz format was preserved only where energy was found beyond 96KHz not to occupy unnecessary disk space.
    All files are delivered as stereo bounce of these for mics, though in some instances an additional couple of CO100K was added to the sides.
    The resulting ultrasonic spectrum is rich and allows for truly extreme manipulation of the content.

    Bonus: Two extra libraries included for free:
