New Sound Effects: Tropical Ambiences, Indoor Firearms And Money

new sound effects - tropical, firearms and money sounds

Posted February 28, 2016 by Asbjoern Andersen in New sound effects libraries

This week we have all the sounds you need for a mafia’s dream getaway. After grabbing all the cash they can find, the mobsters barely escape a stairway shootout before they escape on the next helicopter to tropical Central America. They plan to live lavishly off the grid, but will they make it through the night before the backstabbing begins?

The coins and bills used were a mixture of various international currency.

Money by Hzandbits contains dozens of sounds of various international currency being handled, counted, dropped onto tables, and poured into cash registers. These sounds were recorded to be as dry of reverb as possible while maintaining a natural sound. Also included in this library is the handling of paper money as it is counted and sorted for a quick, concise collection.

The London Warehouse Firearms Library

Firearms Sound Effects The London Warehouse Firearms Library – Indoor Guns Play Track 291+ sounds included, 240 mins total
Rated 5.00 out of 5
$199

Audiobeast is proud to present our first sample library; the first library of its kind to focus entirely on weapons being fired in interior spaces!

The London Warehouse Weapons Library contains over 6 GBs of weapons being fired in a large warehouse, medium warehouse, stairwell, office and small room. 291 WAV files all recorded at 96 khz 24 bit, with heaps of information on microphones used and distance from the firearms.

Various distances were captured, from the DPA4062 on the guns themselves, to the distant other end of the warehouse 50 metres away. To add, some mics were positioned behind doors and walls to capture the occluded gunfire.

As well as all the firing we’ve included all the foley as well, because while convolution reverb is great, nothing beats actual content!

Minimal cleanup on the recordings was carried out very carefully by Steve Whetman in his room at Pinewood Studios, so as not to introduce any artefacts into the recordings, they are presented as raw as possible.

Weapons fired in the large and medium warehouse spaces:
• Browning M2 .50 Machine Gun
• Steyr HS .50 M1 Sniper Rifle
• H&K 416 5.56 Assault Rifle
• Remington 870 12g Pump Action Shotgun
• Brown Bess Black Powder Musket
• Colt M1911 .45 ACP Pistol

Weapons fired in the stairwell, office and small room spaces:
• H&K 416 5.56 Assault Rifle
• Colt M1911 .45 ACP Pistol

Due to safety restrictions it was not possible to fire the bigger weapons in the smaller spaces, the ceiling was shaking while recording the Assault Rifle in the office and stairwell and came close to collapsing. Physically the Browning M2 .50 calibre Machine Gun would not even fit on the stairwell or in the small room.

Audiobeast has released their first sample library, and it is an extensive one! The London Warehouse Firearms Library contains over 6 GBs of machine guns, sniper rifles, assault rifles, shotguns, muskets and pistols being fired in warehouses, stairwells, offices and small rooms. Even if you already have an extensive firearms library, this one is worth hearing as a reference point for natural indoor reverb.

Tropical Ambiences

Environments & Ambiences Tropical Ambiences Play Track 52+ sounds included, 126 mins total From: $69

‘Tropical Ambiences’ delivers 52 pure, immersive tropical soundscapes, meticulously collected from each subset of tropical ecosystems in extremely-bio-diverse Central America.

It includes rainforests (jungle), cloudforests, dry forests, mangroves, and many other settings.

Recorded at different times of the day and spanning diverse range of weather conditions with various scale of rain and wind forces, this sound pack provides access to a complete array of wild tropical soundscapes.

Each of the 52 files is a careful selection of 1 to 4 minutes high-quality binaural stereo ambiences.

It has been precisely produced so that each track is able to LOOP in a seamless manner allowing for the ambience to last as long as desired, and the files are embedded with metadata (Soundminer/iXML/XMP/BWAV/ID3). The metadata descriptions provide the identification of many animal species from the recordings.

In total, this library delivers more than 2 hours of pristine, tropical ambiences.

Select options

Is there anywhere more peaceful than a rainforest, besides your own bed? Tropical Ambiences from Articulated Sounds captures a Central American haven saturated in complex bird calls, fricative invertebrates, and giant leaves protecting those below from the stormy rain and wind. Even with all the vaccinations needed to enter a rainforest, it is hard to not envy Stéphane Fufa Dufour for capturing all these rare animals. Each track seamlessly loops and may just lull you to sleep.

Animal Sound Effects Forests and Mountains Play Track 96+ sounds included, 220 mins total $110

Forest and Mountains features nature and wildlife sounds from California, Washington, and Oregon. Included are a number of bird recordings and forest ambiences, along with some insects, winds, rivers, and rain.

These were recorded over the past three years in various forests, foothills, and mountain environments. A lot of these took place in or near Southern California’s Angeles Forest and San Gabriel Mountains, an area that spans 1200 Square Miles and varies vastly in terrain.

Also included are some sounds from Northern California, along with recordings from the Pacific Northwest.

The recording techniques for this varied as sometimes I went with the recorders running unattended to capture night, dawn and early morning. Other times I’d record while being close by.

Working as a Sound Effects Editor I’ve curated this collection with Editors in mind. Background Ambiences and Spotted FX can really bring a location to life and give it so much story and character and that was a lot of the inspiration behind putting this all together.

The Locations

California (61 Files) – This is where a majority of the sounds from this library were recorded and specifically Southern California. Variety of areas and different environments, mostly around Angeles Forest, from Lower Elevation Foothills to more rugged mid-elevation Mountain Canyons and then much Higher Elevation and more remote terrain. Also included are a few recordings from the Eastern Sierras and Northern California.

Washington (19 Files) – Southern WA in Gifford Pinchot Forest and various Northwest Forest areas near Puget Sound.

Oregon (16 Files) – Lakeside Recordings in forest and marsh at Klamath Lake in SE Oregon.

The Birds

Prominent / Specific Birds (36) (Closer Mic Perspective and more detailed) (* denotes multiple versions)

Rivers (5) Smaller detailed creeks to faster moving rivers.
Wind (11) A mix of calm to heavier with gusts, vegetation, and tree creaks.

Metadata
Detailed with descriptions and markers and photos to easily navigate and allow for options when searching. UCS was used to categorize and various bird species are identified. I’ve also labeled the metadata with what I consider Lower Elevation (up to 1500 feet), Middle Elevation (2000-5000 feet), and Higher Elevation (above 5000 feet). Included are the season of the year which was mostly Spring and Summer. Using Open-Tier in Soundminer you can use these to help get a bit more specific to particular environments.

Making-Off

All this sounds were originally recorded with a Zoom H6 (cardiod microphone), and were processed in Logic Pro X, mainly editing the recorded material but also I used the Logix Pro X sampler.

Some considerations

1. Keep in mind this sounds can be used in a variety of situations, I put a name to the SFX but this doesn’t mean it can’t be used in other contexts.

2. The sounds are in 44.1Khz/16 bit format. I have the original files at 96khz/24bit also, if you need this format, please contact me.
