We went on a boat expedition, recording a magnificent wooden sailing boat! We took care to record from many perspectives: from top, front, near water wavelets ambiences, from inside the hull, near the captain position.
Recorded with various configuration and microphones, the mkh 8090, Lom MikroUsi, Aquarian hydrophones, placed on various locations. You’ll find mechanism of the winch and sail manipulation, along with emergency engine.
Spanning five years of meticulous field recordings “Rain, Rivers & Waves” gets you nearly 8 GB of pristine water sounds in all shapes and sizes.
The collection includes 97 files recorded in stereo at 96 kHz.
The library delivers around 4 hours of tropical rains, urban storms, shallow streams, large roaring rivers, gentle lapping, heavy surf waves and much more!
We hope this collection will be of great value to anybody looking for outstanding water sounds.
As usual, all our sounds are meticulously recorded, edited with patience and mastered with love.
Sincerely,
Bonson Team
River Flows: Over & Under library brings running river sounds, captured over and under the surface. It features 80 HQ audio files, ranging from cascading waterfalls to running rivers and babbling brooks and creeks. The total duration of the collection is 4 hours with the majority of the recordings captured during wintertime, which makes them uniquely free from any bird and insect audio backdrop.
Overall, the collection caters to projects that require environmental sounds of flowing, emerging/submerging bodies of water as well as underwater ambiences.
COMPLIMENTARY SOUNDS INCLUDED
And what a bonus! We included 20 designed sounds of otherworldly, evolving aquatic ambiences, designed using our source recordings of River Flows library. We passed them through Pitch Shifters, Filtering, Eqs and Sculpting effects like Reformer by Krotos, Granular Synthesis Plugin by The Mangle, and the 3D Audio Software, Sound Particles.
This library comes along with 15 Soundminer Metadata fields, such as description, keywords, category/sub-category, microphone specifications, and more.
Rivers, Streams, Brooklets, Creeks and Waterfalls recorded both above- and underwater.
Over the past five years I constantly recorded flowing water at every opportunity. This library includes a fine selection of diverse sounds emitted by running water. From alpine mountain rivers that rush after the snow melt, brooklets jumping over rocks, natural and human-made tunnels, bubbling watersteps in streams, rapids and riverwaves to plattering waterfalls, straight concrete waste water run and groaning and hissing natural brooks.
Some sounds are harsh and almost white noise, others are lovely and relaxing.
I mostly recorded at night, to keep the recordings free of bird, car or plane noise.
A broad spectrum of sounds to choose from for any film, game or audioplay scene, that needs WATRFlow. Bubbling, splattering, roaring, lively, hissing, talking and lapping murmur.
Mics used: Earthworks QTC50, Neumann KMR81i, Ambient ASF1 & ASF2, Lewit 540s, Ambient Emesser,
Sci-Fi Vehicles Vol. 3 is a collection of 4 sci-fi inspired land vehicles, meticulously designed and crafted from the ground up.

Underwater recordings of the sea recorded with one or two hydrophones.
Geophony and anthrophony underwater sounds: sounds of the waves, shallows, deep sea, port, harbour, diving, ship, sea traffic and other. Underwater ambiences and textures.
Note that the background crackling of the sea is present in the majority of the recordings.
All recordings are recorded with Aquarian audio H2-a XLR hydrophones and Sound Devices field mixer (preamps are Lundahl input transformers for warmth of the sound). Special suspension for the hydrophones is used to avoid (handling) rumble. For “stereo” recordings hydrophones were spaced 1m apart to get some time difference (or Depth of field). There is a mono recordings recorded with one hydrophone too.
Max peak level is around -5dBFS. No compressors or dynamic tools were used in editing.
Underwater sound effects features 200 professionally produced sound effects, ready for use in your productions. These sounds are all hand-picked from the Sound Ideas Underwater Sound Effects library.

Mix these two channels to get depth or water impact to your taste. Recorded in all seasons, in various water levels/water speed. The recordings marked “LOOP” are loop ready and can be repeated continuously.
All recordings are recorded with Aquarian audio H2-a XLR hydrophones and Sound Devices field mixer (preamps are Lundahl input transformers-analog warmth). Recorded in many years with different recorders (but preamps and hydrophones are always the same).
Max peak level is around -5dBFS. No compressors or dynamic tools were used in editing.
Sound of diving recorded in the sea, in the cave, underwater textures of harbour, ship propeller, ship noise, sea waves etc.

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.
