crowd metal glass sound effects Asbjoern Andersen

Posted by Asbjoern Andersen in New sound effects libraries


After a brief hiatus, it’s time to take a listen to some of the new SFX libraries here on A Sound Effect. And from the crashes and hits of metal and glass to the ambiences of busy crowds and European cafés, to the ripping and crumpling of paper, there are lots of excellent sounds to check out:
Sounds of Europe 1 - Busy Places
 
'Sounds of Europe 1 - Busy Places' by Resonant was created with TV and film in mind. It contains the sounds you need most often when designing for a European background with ambiences from cafes, train stations, churches, pubs and other public areas. Each track has been cleaned to remove unwanted sounds; however, a few tracks have kept perceptible words from various European languages in Venice, London, Prague, Vienna and Annecy. For a great assortment of European flavor, give this library a listen.

  • Mattia Cellotto Animal Hyperrealism 2 Animal Sound Effects Library
    Mattia Cellotto Animal Hyperrealism 2 Animal Sound Effects Library
    Animal Sound Effects Collections Animal Hyperrealism Vol II Play Track 2000+ sounds included $180

    Animal Hyperrealism Vol II is a library containing sounds themed animal vocalisations, from real to designed creatures totaling more than 2000 individual sounds in 283 files.

    The sounds were partly recorded with animals trained for media production, partly recorded in zoos and wildlife centers. The asset list includes but is not limited to: amur leopards, bottlenose dolphins, californian sealions, pacific walruses, red ruffed lemurs, owls, parrots, dwarf little fruit bats, hamsters, guinea pigs and many more.

    The content has been recorded at 192KHz with a Sanken CO100K plus a Sennheiser 8050 for center image and a couple of Sennheiser MKH8040 for stereo image.
    A special section of the library features samples recorded at 384KHz. For these sounds an additional microphone was employed, specifically the CMPA by Avisoft-Bioacoustics which records up to 200 KHz. This microphone was actually used to record most of the library but the 384KHz format was preserved only where energy was found beyond 96KHz not to occupy unnecessary disk space.
    All files are delivered as stereo bounce of these for mics, though in some instances an additional couple of CO100K was added to the sides.
    The resulting ultrasonic spectrum is rich and allows for truly extreme manipulation of the content.

    Bonus: Two extra libraries included for free:
     This library also includes two additional releases from Mattia Cellotto - for free: Crunch Mode delivers 230 crunchy sounds made with a variety of vegetables, fresh bread, pizza crust and a selection of frozen goods. The Borax Experiment gets you 158 squishy, gory, slimy and gooey sounds.
