New Sound Effects: Unique Metal Atmospheres, Lots Of Game Foley, Voices, UI Sounds + Auto Shops

Posted August 14, 2016 by Asbjoern Andersen in New sound effects libraries

This week we have five new sound libraries with three that are ready to be implemented into your game, featuring sounds of AI, UI, gun foley, body foley, and doors, item sounds and wind. We also have recordings of metal as it is captured in an automotive shop with a close mono and distant stereo pair, as well as outdoors across desolate, rolling landscapes with contact mics attached to fences and rails. If you’re looking for a specific or versatile library, this recap has something for you!

Metal Atmosphere

Materials & Texture Sound Effects Metal Atmosphere Play Track 29 sounds included, 120 mins total
Rated 5.00 out of 5
$85

Metal Atmosphere is a collection of contact microphone recordings of wire fences vibrating in the wind.

The library consists of 29 recordings ranging from 1 minute to over 10 minutes in length. These have been recorded by taping JrF contact microphones to wire fences and other structures through which sound travels easily.

Most of the sounds are made by the wind “playing” the wires as a huge stringed instrument, while a few others are recordings of submerged wooden fences. The tone is generally dark, even menacing, bringing desolate spaces to mind.

The sounds can be used as backgrounds even if they technically aren’t proper ambiences, as there is a certain degree of similarity between the two channels which creates a fake stereo field. About half of the files also include wind gusts and wind-specific dynamics which renders them easily identifiable as wind sounds, only with extra metal elements added. Additionally there are countless impacts, risers and swells included which can easily be cut out and used as spot effects. All files are recorded and mastered at 24/96 quality which makes them excellent sound design elements ripe for serious processing.

In total, more than 2 hours of metal atmospheres and resonances from unique sources – tagged with comprehensive metadata.

'Metal Atmosphere' by Mindful Audio takes you into the mind of this shiny element. This library has over two hours of metal atmospheres that were captured with two JrF contact mics. These mics were attached to rails and fences as they resonated with wind, producing dark textures, boinging hits, creaks, drones and much more. The mics were also attached to submerged wooden fences for sounds you may never have experienced. If you need dark ambiences, sounds to thicken your audio, or something that sounds out of this world, check out this library.

Auto Workshop

Environments & Ambiences Auto Workshop Play Track 72+ sounds included, 83 mins total $35

Want the sounds of a garage / auto repair workshop? The Auto Workshop SFX library features lots of different tool sounds and general ambiences from automotive workshops (originally recorded for scenes in the Bulgarian feature Godless).

The idea was to capture the sounds at both closeup and off-mic, to be able to fade easily between them. A mono microphone was placed close to the source, and a set of stereo microphones was set up further away, capturing more of the room and echo. The result is very usable, and the ability to fade between closeup and wide shot works very well.

'Auto Workshop' by SonicSalute features tools and ambiences from, you guessed it, an automotive workshop. This library features sounds of compressed air, ceiling winches, hammers, doors, gates and wrenches, as well as skills such as welding, sawing and pressure washing. These sounds were captured with both a close-up mono and a distant stereo pair to allow you to fade between them whilst maintaining proper perspective and reverb. If you need sounds from a shop, this is one to listen to.
