Six new sound effects libraries Asbjoern Andersen


This week on A Sound Effect, we have new libraries for your visceral impacts, creepy backgrounds, and sci-fi interfaces. We have sounds of street fighting and falling bodies, designed Ambisonic atmospheres, Halloween effects, a passionate double bass and violin, and lots of robotic HUD sounds. If you’re looking for something new, you’ll find it here!
Bodyfall vol 1-4
 
  • Foley Sound Effects Bodyfall vol 1-4 Play Track 929 - 3804+ sounds included From: $35

    Bodyfall is an exhaustive multi-volume sound library, designed in collaboration with prize-winning French Foley artist Florian Fabre, and recorded in the famous Hiventy foley studio.

    Each volume features 2 different falling surfaces. On each of them, sounds of different parts of the human body:

    Chest (simulated with 4 textures of distinct densities, labeled M1,M2,M3 and M4), feet, knees, and hands, have been separated.

    All recordings were made from 3 distances (close, mid, distant) with 3 strength levels (hard, medium, soft). Finally, this huge toolbox provides you with infinite combinations to make your own and unique bodyfalls.

    Bodyfall vol 1: Generic / concrete & Hard Metal:
    Files included: 972 .WAV, stereo & mono files , 24 bit / 96 kHz (416 MB)

    Bodyfall vol 2: Wood / Rustic & Metal Grid:
    Files included: 974 .WAV, stereo & mono files, 24 bit / 96 kHz (438 MB)

    Bodyfall vol 3: Dirt & Wood / Hardfloor:
    Files included: 929 .WAV, stereo & mono files, 24 bit / 96 kHz (433 MB). No distant files for Dirt soft impacts.

    Bodyfall vol 4: Metal / Composite & Wood / Parquet:
    Files included: 929 .WAV, stereo & mono files, 24 bit / 96 kHz (433 MB)

    Bodyfall Bundle:
    All files & surface variations from vol 1-4 included

'Bodyfall vol 1-4' by The Red Libraries has all the thudding, tumbling sounds you need for that rough fight scene or poorly timed jump. Within these 4 bundles, you'll get sounds of a body hitting concrete, wood, metal, dirt, and hard floors - and the sounds of the impacted feet, knees, and hands have been separated to help you match your image. You'll also get even more variety with close, mid, and distant perspectives and hard, medium, and soft impacts. With nearly a thousand sounds in each individual library, it's quite the massive bundle!
 
Robotic Creations: Heads Up Display – Toolkit
 
'Robotic Creations: Heads Up Display – Toolkit' by Boom Box Library is the toolkit version of their library by the same name. With sci-fi HUD and UI sounds, this library covers your needs for sounds of data processing, countdowns, alarms, power ups, access granted, and more. You also get multiple iterations, seamlessly looping tracks, and a toolkit that will allow you to control the sounds with a MIDI keyboard or TouchOSC layout! If you have a vintage robot, android, mech suit, or exosuit in your project, this library will get your AI up and running in no time.
 
Double Bass Sound Effects
 
  • This Double Bass & Violin sound effects library not only includes weird low double bass bow strokes, stabs, vibrating strings, drones, harsh harmonics, string scrapes, bow stroke voices, and bright violin tones and screams. It also includes the opportunity to open up a whole new set of sonic adventures.

    Why? All double bass sounds have been recorded at 192K/24 bit, with an amazing stereo set of close up Sanken CO100K microphones, and a stereo set of Sennheiser Mkh 8020 microphones, capturing low end and room. All violin sounds have been recorded with a single Sanken CO100K microphone.

    Common for all Sanken files is that you're able to either extreme time stretch/time compress, or pitch up and down the files, and by this discover a whole new world of sounds – without adding nasty degenerating artifacts or muffling the sound. The ultra-high frequency range of the Sanken microphones does really make a great difference!

    Recordings these sounds was a pure blast. The amount of versatile organic material in the set is great. The bass instrument has been played in a very innovative way, using both regular bow on strings and bass body, but also finger cymbals attached to specific places for a vibrating ring or rattle noise, creating some really other-worldly sound effects, and almost vocal-like patterns.

    While the double bass material produces a massive low end without any further processing, the violin recordings really benefit from being stretched and pitched. This makes all the non-audible bright sounds captured by the Sanken microphones come through.

'Double Bass Sound Effects' by SonicSalute is an experimental library that features two highly expressive string instruments. You can hear sounds of a carefully recorded double bass with its low rumbles, body noise, chaotic strokes, and intense plucking. You can also hear a violin screeching and scraping, as well as performing melodic strokes and stingers. Whether you're making a Hitchcockian horror film or you want to experiment further by pitch-bending these 192kHz recordings, you're sure to find something interesting and new here!
 
Hand-to-Hand Combat – Body Hits & Vocal Excursions
 
'Hand-to-Hand Combat – Body Hits & Vocal Excursions' by The Chris Alan is a clean, closely recorded library of combat sounds for your action-packed street fighting game. With nearly 400 sounds, you get punches, kicks, slaps, and slams, as well as masculine exclamations of the "hyah!", "hee!", and "hyuh!" variety. You'll hear sounds from cinematically lethal situations like getting choked, powering up, dying, and winning, too! For a great pack of vocalizations and impacts, check this one out.
 
Ambisonic – Synthetic Sphere
 
  • Ambisonic Sound Effects Ambisonic – Synthetic Sphere Play Track 10 sounds included, 51 mins total From: $5

    Synthetic Sphere is a collection of spatialised synthetic pads, mixed in an ambisonic format for a complete 360 interactive soundtrack.

'Ambisonic – Synthetic Sphere' by Sen6 gets you 10 interesting pads to bring a certain atmosphere and tone to your project. These tonal ambiences are each 4 to 9 minutes and offer complex design both in their chosen sounds and active imaging. From emotional church bells and ohmming monks to tense guitars and creepy music boxes, these 360 soundscapes harken back to the ambient backgrounds in classic RPGs. You can also get the stereo-only version here. Whether you're looking for the perfect sound or just some inspiration, give this one a listen!
 
Haunted House
 
'Haunted House' by John Silke is a grab bag of classic Halloween sounds for your radio plays, TV shows, and whatever else needs a little spoooooookiness. In this collection you'll hear 165 sounds of creepy accordions, bone crunches, creaking floorboards, door rattles, bumps in the night, laughing clowns, and more.
