    Continuing the popular Videogame Foley Essentials series (Vol. I, Vol. II, Vol.III), Vol. IV offers an additional 1325 individual sound effects all mixed at the same volume level, carefully cleaned of any unnecessary background noise and artifacts. These sounds are ready to be integrated into any audio middleware solution, such as Wwise or FMOD. Recorded with videogame development in mind, all sounds are short, snappy one-shots with dozens of iterations, making them ideal for layering, stretching and bending to achieve surprising results. The goal is to streamline the workflow for editors and sound designers by providing ready-to-use sound batches for their middleware projects, avoiding auditory repetition and fatigue for gamers while keeping them fully immersed in their upcoming adventures.

    You’ll find in this library the following folders with clear nomenclature and corresponding metadata related to various interactions either with environmental objects or the characters in the game:

    • Cameras: foley sounds of both analog and digital cameras, including manual and digital zooming, button pressing, photographic film and battery insertion, digital power-on and power-off sounds, shooting clicks, and the handling of all camera elements.
    • Disks: CD, DVD and Blu-ray interactions, including the sound effects of respective players’ trays opening and closing, disk insertion and removal from various devices, button pressing, foley sounds of disks being placed, removed and inserted into different cases, and the handling of jewel cases and DVD cases.

    • Radio: long takes of both AM and FM frequencies.
