We're excited to let you know that after a great effort from the backend team, we're finally able to introduce our much-improved payment flow here on A Sound Effect - making the checkout process much smoother and faster, and introducing multiple currencies as well.
Please share:

Our Paypal checkout option has been vastly improved, solving the Paypal issues some of you have been experiencing and making Paypal payments a lot quicker and smoother than ever before.

We’ve also added a brand new credit card checkout option, allowing you to pay with major credit cards directly on the site, save cards for faster checkouts and more. The credit card option is our new recommended way of purchasing, as it’s so quick and easy to use – the choice is yours, of course.

In addition, many of you have asked to be able to pay in your local currency, so we’ve now added this option for a number of countries. Oh, and we will be adding more payment options over the coming weeks, to make it even easier for you to get excellent sounds.

Hope you enjoy the faster ways to get the sounds you want!

  • Delirium is a sound effects toolkit, lovingly prepared to accompany your unique and personal descent into madness. Bask in the radiance of wobbling washes of muffled screams, or perhaps some swaying, spiralling tones that make you feel dizzy and nauseous!

    Designed primarily using Madrona Labs SUMU, Delirium is perfect for creating tension-filled atmospheres, hypnotic trances, dream sequences, hallucinations and generally unusual, other-worldly situations. Wavering drones that are writhing and moving, fragmented vocal splinters of what used to be human voices before they were dragged into the void, static bursts of interference from a long forgotten transmission that should never have been found… that sort of thing.

    It does cover some areas that are more grounded in the real world (Comms Static, UI Glitches), but the majority of stuff in here is proudly un-tethered from reality.

    The library is broken down into the following categories and sub categories as part of its comprehensive UCS metadata.

    • COMMUNICATIONS: Static, Telemetry – Scrambled, Lofi, Glitch
    • DESIGNED: Distortion, Drone, Eerie, Ethereal, Granular, Rhythmic, Rumble, Synthetic, Tonal, Vocal, Whoosh – Bubbling, Clicks, Demonic, Energy, Evolving, Fizzing, Gloopy, Gritty, Hissing, Metallic, Movement, Muffled, Neutral, Pulsing, Rattling, Riser, Robotic, Scrambled, Spinning, Static, Steady, Submerged, Sweeteners, Swells, Synth, Texture, Throbbing, Tonal, Watery
    • MAGIC: Shimmer, Spell – Fragments, Metallic, Movement, Steady, Swells, Tonal, Vocal
    • SCIFI: Energy – Evolving, Movement, Riser, Steady, Surges, Swells, Texture
    • USER INTERFACE: Data, Glitch, MotionGritty, Malfunction, Movement, Smooth, Watery, Gestures

    The sounds of Delirium will allow you to travel to weird, wonderful and sometimes unpleasant places with your sonic creations whilst maintaining subtlety and versatility. They are layers waiting to be interwoven, a bag of choice ingredients, a palette of strange colours. Go forth and paint!!!
