This week on A Sound Effect, we have five new libraries that are useful for all sorts of genres. We have a collection of gun shells that ring and ping as they bounce off various surfaces, police and ambulance sirens from all over Europe and the Americas, detailed whooshes for your spaceships and film trailers, delightful UI SFX from the master of onomatopoeia, and beautifully immersive soundscapes from Canada’s wintery wildernesses. Whether you’re looking for subtly authentic sounds or ones that captivate (and might even influence your animation), we have a great selection this week!

If your film or game needs a little speed, this is the library for you.
'Sirens' by Audiohero gets you 170 sounds of sirens from all over the world. In this library you'll hear sirens belonging to police cars, ambulances, and fire trucks with their country-specific wails, blips, and screams from Mexico, the United States, Denmark, Spain, France, and Germany. It also includes recordings of the engines and horns from internal perspectives, as well as external recordings of pass-bys and arrivals. If you need sounds of an ambulance fast, this library should have you covered.
When you find out a library is created by George Hufnagl from Sounds Like George, you know it will have lots of charm, and 'Human Interface' is proof!
