  • City Life Sound Effects UK Shops & Markets Play Track 17+ sounds included, 51 mins total $22

    UK Shops & Markets is a distinct collection of ambiences from small shops and markets recorded in England, captured during field recording sessions by our team of Audio Craftsmen. The sounds will make a great addition to your everyday audio collection and are perfect for use in your films, documentaries, commercials and video games.

    Our team travelled and recorded sounds from authentic British outdoor and indoor markets, different perspectives from supermarkets and retail stores, shopping centres and much more, all in locations without music. We captured the sounds of trolleys passing, people speaking in English and other language, checkout tills, shopping bags and footsteps, essentially everything you would need to build an ambience of a shop/market in the UK.

    We then carefully edited the files so that you can drop them straight to your projects effortlessly. All of the sounds are provided dry in 24Bit 96kHz allowing you for further sonic manipulation according to your requirement. Moreover, all the files are tagged with extensive metadata and are UCS compliant to search and select the desired sound with ease.

    London Ambiences is a diverse collection of ambiences captured in our field recording sessions around the city of London, UK. The sounds in this library are perfect for creating a natural soundscape of London or other big cities and can be used in your films, documentaries and video games.

    Our Audio Craftsmen recorded ambiences from the busy streets of the capital: cafes, tunnels, the iconic Waterloo Bridge, Westminister Bridge, traffic, construction sites and more. The heavy rumbles from bridges, busy roads and streets are great for building a dense, multilayered city soundscape.

    All of the included sounds are carefully edited and provided dry in 24Bit/96kHz and are tagged with extensive UCS compliant metadata to help you find the right sound for your scene.

  • Printer Vol. 1 is the essential addition to your everyday sound repertoire (and, not to mention, much more user-friendly than an actual printer!)

    Our Audio Craftsmen recorded the functions of a home inkjet printer to bring you a series of sounds comprising printing, copying, scanning, loading, collecting and handling printer paper, opening and closing trays, powering off and on, button beeps and general movement.

    Whether your printer project requires detail and sweetening, or you’re looking to create office ambiences and backgrounds, Printer Vol. 1 is the place to go!

    All sounds are delivered in 24Bit 96kHz format to allow further sonic manipulation, and have been meticulously edited and tagged with extensive UCS compliant metadata for ease of use.

  • Enter the wonderful sonic emporium of UK Seaside Town & Theme Park Vol. 2!

    While Vol. 1 featured the sounds and native accent of Blackpool in the North West of England, this collection focuses on the people, amusements and Southern accent of Bournemouth, England.

    Enjoy this assortment of candid ambiences recorded at a beachside restaurant, in an arcade, amongst crowds, in the suburbs, and inside a hotel. Our Audio Craftsmen captured sounds both eclectic and useful, including a whirring old elevator, walla, seagulls, grasshoppers, footsteps of passersby, distant surf, and arcade dings and clinks.

    Fatten up background designs in your TV, Film or Game coastal locations with these authentic ambiences. Or infuse your soundscapes with a touch of seaside idiosyncrasy.

    All sounds are delivered in 24Bit 192kHz format allowing further sonic manipulation, and have been meticulously edited and tagged with extensive UCS compliant metadata for ease of use.

The sound effects are separated into categories like falling glass debris, falling metal debris, stone debris and mixed falling rubble explosion impacts, allowing you to customize the sound and intensity of your explosion.

  • The Blacksmith Sound Effects Library gets you the ringing, banging sounds of hammer impacts on an anvil, as well as the sounds of a large blacksmith's bellows.

  • Motion Texures is a broad library with a narrow purpose: to draw sonic lines and create gently moving sonic textures.

    The concept is that consistent sound of friction will translate well to visual design elements that have CG and text movement on screen.

    We recorded the friction sounds of dozens of small to medium sized props in constant motion. Major categories include metal, plastic, cloth, wood and skin. Some of the most interesting sounds came from the props that had small cavities such as the spray can lid and the water bottle. The constant changing of the cavity state relative to the mics creates strange vocal sounds.

    Once the sounds were recorded we employed a proprietary smoothing process as a second pass to the sounds and provided them in addition to the original textures. These smoothed out sounds still have the organic quality of the original recordings, but with far fewer transient events. The end result are sounds that feel straighter than the more circular sounding original textures.

    Inside of the Kontakt instruments we stacked layers and effects to create a broad base of deep and interesting textures. Many of the Kontakt presets mangle the sounds far beyond recognition of the original recordings.
     

    Motion Textures features

    • 92 unique original samples
    • 92 smoothed samples

  • Get a huge variety of simple or complex lockdown mechanism sounds with a wide array of different latches and impacts with Lockdown, a performable Kontakt instrument and sound effects library.

    We brought in dozens of props big and small to generate a massive array of source material recorded at 24 bit 192kHz. These included cameras, carabiners, wrenches, rack cases, knives, can openers, tongs, crimpers, solder suckers, file cabinet doors, vehicle doors and servos and much more – all with multiple unique performances per set.

    Great care was taken to record each performance with the highest sonic quality and detail. We chose a pair of MKH50s in XY as our primary setup, creating a big, clean stereo image on every sound.

    Lockdown is divided into two parts –
    elements and designed:

    The elements collection has all of the source recordings in their unaltered states. Each sound is edited, cleaned, volume matched and carefully metadata tagged.

  • Get the sounds of switches, buttons, knobs and handles – recorded inside an old, retired flight simulator donated to the Danish Technical Museum.

    This machine used to make aspiring pilots sweat in their seats, putting them through all sorts of mechanical failures, emergency landings, and just plain flying.

    There is basically a switch, button, knob or handle to start every single possible emergency situation a pilot and crew may encounter when flying.

    When the sound recording started, some of them were partly broken, and others missing, some did not turn or switch, but most of them were still there and worked beautifully. The variety is surprisingly great, and very different from today's modern switch sounds.

  • • Harmonic Series Drones is an extension of several of my music compositions. Over the past few years, I’ve been very interested in data sonification, writing several pieces that turn real-time weather data into music. This library was created using a drone generator that turns weather data into sound. I built this drone generator for my piece Sitka for piano and seasonal electronics.

    • Instead of pulling weather data from Sitka, Alaska, as I did in the piece, I used 2016 daily temperature data from the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, a fragile place wrapped up in current political drama and now open to drilling. This library is a sonification of 2016 temperature data in ANWR. The highest global temperature on record was recorded in 2016 (2016 Global Climate Report). It is even worse in the Arctic where temperatures are warming at twice the rate of lower latitudes (2016 Arctic Report Card). With this library, you’ll be able to hear the warming, and I hope this library helps to draw attention to the rapidly changing environment of the Arctic.

    • Each of the forty-eight drones corresponds to the average temperature of a day in 2016, with twelve drones from each of the four seasons. The drones are built from pure tones made from tightly filtered pink noise. These pure tones are then stacked in harmonic series relationships. For instance, a winter drone might consist of the fundamental and four lowest partials. A summer drone could have the fundamental and partials seven, fourteen, and thirty-two.

    • The drones stand on their own without the story. If you never knew they started with weather data, you would still find a variety of pure, rich, microtonal drones with enough variety to fit the mood of any project.

    2% FOR THE ENVIRONMENT:
    • Two percent of the price of this library is donated to an environmental cause. I view it as an “artist royalty” for the planet!

    KEY FEATURES:
    • All files are sample seamless loops. So, there are no fade-ins and outs and the files are ready for looping in any DAW.
    • Consonant and dissonant drones
    • Simple and complex drones
    • Each of the 48 drones is between 1 and 1.5 minutes in duration
    • Non-periodic undulating drones
    • Each harmonic has a randomized gain, so the drones pulse non-periodically.
    • Drones were made from tightly filter pink noise, so drones have a small amount of soothing and airy pink noise.
    • Microtonal harmonic series relationships create beautiful beating between drone harmonics.
    • All drones have a fundamental of G1 (49Hz). Transpose them as needed to fit any project.
    • Partials are included in the metadata, for example, “fundamental_G1_harmonics_1_2_3_4_7_16”.
    DATA SONIFICATION:
    • Weather data included in the Soundminer Description and BWAV description fields.
    • Temperature data was translated as a combination of lowest harmonic, number of harmonics, and highest harmonic.
    • Generally, lower temperatures include bass harmonics and higher temperatures include treble harmonics. For example, the hottest day of the year only included harmonics 18 and 24.
    • Location: weather data is from the NOAA station at Helmut Mountain, Alaska in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.

  • Magic & Fantasy Sound Effects Helinä Play Track 754+ sounds included, 225 mins total $55

    “Helinä” can be translated as “the tinkling sound made by the shaking of tiny bells”.  These may be wind chimes, and some are quite large, but the meaning of the name still rings true.  Beautiful, glorious, and entrancing wind chimes, all stirred up for your designing and listening pleasure.

    We’ve meticulously recorded and only very lightly edited 15 different sets of wind chimes composed of varying materials, shapes, and sizes. The result is a stirring array of shimmering textures from the soft dull knock of bamboo to the brilliant crystalline sparkle of obsidian.

    The chimes sets and performances include:

    Chimes: Bamboo, Glass Shards, Porcelain Bell, Cast iron Bell, Glass Bell, Stoneware, Obsidian, Buoy, Paper/Mixed, Copper, Aluminum, Bronze, Agate, Shells, Capiz

    Performances: Flowing (Short, Med, Long), Breeze (Light), Windy (Moderate), Stormy (Heavy), Quaking, Plops, Gusts, Strikes, Grabbing, Releasing

    You’ll get incredible tonal depth, preciously sustained tails, and conveniently isolated strikes and “gusts” resulting in a natural representation of each chime.  All of the chime-work was recorded in 192 kHz so you can bend, stretch, and twist with the comfort of the extended harmonic content of each chime.  The majority of the stereo content is presented in Mid-Side format (noted in tracklist and metadata) such that the stereo width can be dialed in as desired and a clean mono track can be had without any added processing or summing. All of the performances resulted in 50 separate files for each of the 15 chimes, making layering and matching performances a breeze.  In addition to the chime sets, we’ve included four stereo wind captures, in different capacities and locations, for adding context and ambiance to any wind chime-appropriate environment you may find yourself working on.
