9 new sound libraries Asbjoern Andersen


This week on A Sound Effect we have a variety of sounds for all different types of projects. Are you making a crime drama? We have something for that. What about a futuristic, machine-centered world? Yep! It doesn’t matter if your project takes place on a boat, in a private aircraft, in a fantasy world, or out on a hike as a Bald Eagle flies by, we have lots of new libraries for you to check out, so dig in!
Predatory Birds
 
  • Sounds for this library were recorded over 5 sessions – in a private zoo and in the field, all in cooperation with professional birds trainers.  All of them were recorded outdoor (and just a few in an outdoor aviary). Trainers helped us to get variety of bird calls and vocalisations, like: shriek, cry, squawk, screech, whistle, scream.

    Three sessions, were recorded extremely close to birds on very quiet big field. The intention was to grab very isolated and rich sounds, useful for sound design. For this sessions we used Sanken CO-100k and Sennheiser MKH-8060, which were super close (just a few centimeters away from brids beaks) and Schoeps CMC-6XT MK41 a bit wider for more natural/open sound. Although sometimes Sanken and Sennheiser sound very similiar (they were in similar position), we left both files. Sanken recordings (@192kHz) are amazing for pitch shifting, yet sounds recorded by Sennheiser are very natural in neutral pitch.
    When pitch shifted, all sounds become very evocative and emotional sound design sources.

    All files contain natural sequences and rhythms of calls. There are also close wing flaps, movements and even sounds of birds eating recorded in macro close POV.
    The library is extensively metatagged in Soundminer.

    Please note: Pitch shifted files in the demo are presented only to show potential of those recordings and aren't included in the library.

'Predatory Birds' by Sound Mind – Michal Fojcik has sounds of those interesting, intimidating birds that make us pause when we hear them. With sounds of a Harris Hawk, Northern Goshawk, Saker Falcon, Bald Eagle, Great Horned Owl, and more, you will get a variety of shrieks, cries, and whistles from these professionally trained birds. They were also recorded with a variety of mics at various perspectives, giving you wing flaps, eating, and natural call sequences, too! Whether you are creating an authentic interactive soundscape or a flying monster, you won't regret buying this one.
