Listening to, and recording electrical signals of lift servos, AC adaptors switching on and off, electrical toothbrushes, weird analog devices, tv sets and much more is basically what this library of sounds is made from.
The end result is 103 mono and stereo tracks of appliances turning on and off, running, and maneuvering the Electrousi microphones around in a most often improvised and I dont know what Im doing kind of way.

Introducing Mountain Air: Ambiances & Winds, the largest and most ambitious sound effects library from PMSFX to date. This collection features 87 high-quality recordings, totaling almost 5 hours of immersive soundscapes. Captured exclusively in the breathtaking Kuči Mountains, located on the border of Montenegro and Albania, these recordings were made at altitudes ranging from 1,400 to 1,700 meters, offering a pristine and untouched auditory experience.
Each soundscape is meticulously tagged with UCS-compliant metadata, ensuring you can locate the perfect sound in seconds.
To reach these remote locations, hours of rugged off-road trails were navigated, accessible only with a capable 4WD vehicle. These challenging terrains and isolated spots provided the ideal environment to capture the raw, unspoiled essence of mountain soundscapes.
The library includes a diverse array of recordings:
Still Air: Quiet, serene atmospheres.
Gentle Breezes to Gale-Force Winds: Dynamic wind recordings that range from subtle rustles to powerful gusts.
Natural Soundscapes: Crickets, birds, and other wildlife echoing across forests, mountain valleys, and meadows.
Mountain Villages: Very distant hints of human presence, including faint dog barks and cow moos from small mountain settlements (Serbian/Croatian: Katun)
This 20.37GB library was recorded between spring and fall, as the trails in Kuči Mountains become nearly inaccessible during winter, even with the best 4WD setups. The result is a one-of-a-kind collection that captures the essence of high-altitude wilderness.
Why Choose Mountain Air: Ambiances & Winds?
Massive Content: Almost 5 hours of audio and 20.37GB of authentic, high-quality sound effects.
Pristine Locations: Recorded in some of the most remote and untouched mountain ranges in Europe.
Wide Variety: Perfectly captures the diversity of mountain atmospheres—from tranquil stillness to powerful winds.
Optimized Workflow: UCS-compliant metadata ensures seamless integration into any project.
Field-Tested Quality: Expertly recorded and edited.

The Animal Symphony – Flight of the Bees was made possible by the collaboration of “Mieles Sandrita“, who opened their doors to us and provided exceptional care throughout the recording process.
This sound library offers 55 high-quality audio tracks, each with multiple variations meticulously captured to ensure unmatched sound quality. The recordings are organized with consistent nomenclature, making it easy to combine or swap takes depending on the needs of your project.
Recording bees in motion posed a unique challenge, as they kept flying around the microphones, and tracking them accurately was virtually impossible due to the number of bees present. Still, we managed to capture complete swarm environments, including tracks with predetermined durations and continuous loops. Some takes can be combined, as on occasion a bee remained within the capture radius of all microphones simultaneously.
Most of the fluttering sounds are available individually so you can create your scene according to your preferences. Additionally, the sounds are not pre-panned, allowing for complete flexibility in adjusting them to your mix.
The recording was done with high-end equipment, such as the Sennheiser MKH 8050 microphone, the Sanken CO-100K and a Zoom H6 recorder to capture stereo sound. Thanks to ultrasonic capture, by lowering the pitch of the recordings, a depth and frequency richness is maintained ideal for creative uses, such as the creation of spaceships, jet engines or any sound design.
The tracks were recorded at 24-bit and 192 kHz / 96 kHz, guaranteeing professional quality in every detail.
Finally, all recordings have been carefully edited to remove external noises, such as birds, wind, people or footsteps, ensuring a clean experience ready for use in any professional production.
Ideal applications:
– Video games: Add realism and depth to the natural environments of your games.
– Cinema and Documentaries: Enrichment of the audiovisual product with authentic sounds.
– Educational Applications: Use these sounds in educational projects to teach about wildlife and animal behavior.
– Multimedia Projects: Ideal for any project that seeks to enrich the user’s listening experience.
Technical details:
– Total audios: 55 (224 Individually)
– Format: 192kHz – 96kHz/24bit
– Equipment used: Zoom F6 recorder with Sennheiser MKH 8050 microphone and EM258 capsule microphone, as well as a Zoom H6 recorder for stereo.

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.
