new sound effects las vegas military vehicles lasers Asbjoern Andersen


This week we have sounds that travel far and others that focus on intricate design. You can find libraries that feature the beaches of the French Normandy or the busy streets of the Las Vegas Strip. We also have small wooden, plastic and metal mechanisms, as well as powerful armored infantry fighting machines. Finally, check out synthesized sounds modeled after lasers and force fields and experimental sounds extracted from frozen H2O. Whether you’re seeking a physical or designed world, there are many unique libraries to hear this week!

Vegas may be the place of both high hopes and utter defeat, but once you step away from the excitement and just listen, the city has some truly unique sounds.

You can hear sounds on the strip with indistinct voices in hotels, arcades and restaurants, the melding of nature and nightlife with crickets and street performers, and beeps and boops of traffic, as well as areas far from Sin City with ambiences of the Hoover Dam, Grand Canyon and even thousands of feet in the air in a helicopter ride. If you need sounds from this notorious city, check out this library.

'Designed Ice' by Solar Audio is an experimental library based on our favorite frozen liquid. These sounds of ice have been mangled and distorted beyond recognition to give their 'essence' through textures and moods for otherworldly experiences. These sounds crackle, tear, shatter, evolve, excite, glitch, and emote, imitating both living things like aliens and insects and instruments such as bells and horns. These sounds are designed to be used straight out of the box; however, don't think they won't inspire you to play with their 192kHz sample rate—or see what new effects you can achieve in your own recordings! If you are looking for an experimental or design inspiration, give this library a listen.

    Things that whirr, rotate, grind, click and clack. Strange machines that defy categorization. Levers, cogwheels and camshafts. Wood, metal and plastic, scrapes and screams. Some are simple loops of a single sound, while others are more complex movements.

    Most of the sounds lend themselves best to small-ish mechanisms, but pitching down works well on many of them, for creating more substantial sounding movements.Sources include everything from an antique coffee grinder to old 8mm film cameras, and various nameless props and gadgets – perfect for designing sounds of strange machines and mechanical contraptions.

    Metadata included in CSV and ODS (OpenOffice)

'Elegant Machines' by Hzandbits is a sound library full of mechanisms created by various elements—from metal and wood to glass and marble. It has little machines with squeaky wooden teeth that roll and rattle, metal chains, plastic spinning wheels, scraping aluminium, and marble balls winding in glass bowls. As a collection of over 150 uniques sounds, you will also receive sounds of analog cameras, antique coffee grinders, cranks, air releases and much more. If you are looking for intricate sounds of complex contraptions that go beyond the typical metal machines, this is the library for you.

  • Destruction & Impact Sounds Metamorphosis Play Track 2328 sounds included $152

    Metamorphosis is a huge collection of recorded source, synthesized material and hybrid sounds. The library was created to cover a wide range of themes, with rich textures, aggressive impacts and a large selection of pass bys, bass drops, pyrotechnics and many more types of material.

    All of the Recorded Section was captured at 384KHz with microphones capable of recording up to 200KHz among with more conventional mics. The resulting assets are sounds that can be stretched to new extremes for greater sound design opportunities.
    In many cases I took the liberty to slow down the assets while editing the sounds to deliver what I thought was the most useful version of a given recording though in most cases I have also included other takes at the original 384KHz sample rate to get the best of both worlds.

    All of the Synthesized Content was created in Serum while the Hybrid Section was created by manipulating the Recorded and Synthesized sounds.

    Techniques such as morphing were used to blur the lines in between the nature of the two sources, making for ambiguous yet extremely versatile material that can be employed on both realistic and abstract designs.

    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.
