Home grandfather clock
Antique Clock Mechanism contains twenty-five sound files of a disassembled grandfather clock, including multiple chime takes recorded on the front and back of the mechanism itself, alongside handling sounds with a pendulum clanging about and simple thuds for additional foley details.
Take a trip back in time with our new sound effects library, Antique Clocks. Our Audio Craftsmen have exclusively captured the sounds of various, genuine antique clocks including, but not limited to, multiple antique mechanisms, Grandfather clocks, mantel clocks and pendulum clocks.
This collection has all the staple sounds for your films, documentaries, video games and other projects, in particular those with historical settings.
All sounds were recorded in 24Bit 96kHz allowing further sonic manipulation in our acoustically treated Foley suite. We then meticulously edited and tagged the files with extensive UCS compliant metadata for ease of use.

We’ve given you the dry version to design your self or use the samples already pre drenched in the same reverb for consistency to use straight away in any project. You can mix the single hits to create unique tick/tock patterns as well. Not only are these great for clock based tick/tocks, but the single hits can also be used as percussion for compositions or to add to other layers to create impact hits.

With A Sound Effect, Asbjoern has created a web site where our international community can browse, learn, and share the vast fruits of our labors. Together we are accelerating the very real potential power of sound design as a recognized art form.
A Sound Effect is an excellent resource for us to keep our animated films sounding unique and exciting.
A Sound Effect is a great asset to have discovered.
We found the site very easy to navigate, purchasing and downloads were effortless and the effects themselves are awesome! Asbjoern has done us all a great service.
We’ll definitely be back!
There are many great independent sound effect libraries available these days. The main problem with having so many, is keeping track of them!
A Sound Effect is a great hub, and is one of the first places I visit to look for sounds by category or genre. I started coming here to see if I could find libraries that I knew I had heard, but forgot WHERE I had heard them.
And in the process discovered libraries I never would have found otherwise. Great work! Keep it up!
We're always looking for new sounds to mangle, so when A Sound Effect had a holiday sale, I tried them out.
The purchase experience is really smooth and quick, and delivery is almost instant.
I'll definitely come back to them again in the future!
A Sound Effect is a wonderful resource for indie sound effects libraries. On top of that, it has some of the finest sound design, film and game audio interviews!
I often need very specific types of sounds so I've become a big supporter of independent recorders.
Until now I've always had to go to their individual websites. Now I can find them all in one place.
And, Asbjoern is great to work with!
A Sound Effect is a well curated boutique sound effects shop and a great place to find industry interviews and learning resources.
