We’re back with our biggest-ever highlight of new sound effects libraries – and we’ve got tons of new sounds to share with you, including vehicles of all shapes and sizes, and diverse sources and creative designs.
If you are looking for automobiles, check out the Peugeot jeep and station wagon. For something bigger, like a WWII tank, listen to the Sherman M4A3 and Stuart M5A1. If you need something lighter and buoyant, we have sounds of Kawasaki, Sea Doo and Yamaha jet skis. And for something that flies, an F16 should do, or perhaps a collection of 10 different models at Heathrow!
We also have ambiences of worldwide airports, Central America, the city of Kolkata, the Saharan Atlas Mountains, quiet deserts and leafy foliage; plus sounds of cameras young and old, molecular soundscapes, household fans, presets for Serum, abstract guns, various canines, aggressive doors, game UI events, transitions, AK-47s, ethereal metal, manual and electric tools, various props, expressive winds, blockbuster booms and hits, and Surround Sound Lab’s full offering of libraries. And if you haven’t already, check out the new tool Igniter for all your car behavior needs. Happy listening!
