Hello Creators!
Here’s my new pack: “Anime Combat Sounds“
The approach for this pack was to create sounds in the anime style, I loved that genre and I wanted to see how this type of sounds are created. In this pack there are: Punches, slaps, energy, hits, spells, destruction SFX, hitmarks, explosions SFX, impacts, sword attacks, whirlwinds, whooshes, unarmed combat SFX.
Although they are anime sounds, they can be used in different styles of video games or other media projects.
Making-Off
All this sounds were originally recorded with a Zoom H6 (cardiod microphone), and were processed with the Logic Pro X sampler, Omnisphere and using plugins like PitchMonster. In this case, the recorded sound have been heavily changed, because anime sounds are not usually “realistic”.
“Nazare, Portugal. Big Waves spot” includes 9 stereo files (WAV, 96 kHz, 24 bit) of total length: 33m52s. All files were carefully edited and described with UCS metadata.
Recorded with Zoom H6 with internal mid-side capsule during three “big waves” days of January 2020.
What you can expect to hear is general loud ocean roar with strong wind, large waves breaking at the cliff rocks and much calmer morning recordings on the beach with long breaking waves and sea birds. Perfect as ambience for seaside scenes.
“Nazare, Portugal. Big Waves spot.” is 9 stereo files, 96/24. 1,08 GB big, all UCS ready!

Here’s my new pack: “Blood & Wounds Sounds“
The approach for this pack was to create sounds for amazing video games that are explicit in their combats. Let the blood flow!
I recorded some fruits and vegetables in a garage to make this possible.

All this sounds were originally recorded with a Zoom H6 (cardiod microphone), and were edited in Logic Pro X, I used plugins like “PitchMonster” that have granular pitch to shape the original recordings.
Some considerations
Keep in mind this sounds can be used in a variety of situations, I put a name to the SFX but this doesn’t mean it can’t be used in other contexts.

Behind The Sounds:
The AMB01 Okefenokee Swamp library contains 39 ambient swamp soundscapes filled with songbirds, owls, crickets, wind, jumping fish, frogs, and more.
By renting a canoe and paddling over 30 miles into the swamp, I was able to capture and experience the heart of the swamp with no distractions for four days.

The Modern Animation Library has all the essentials to bring your animated projects to life in vivid detail.
Sound for animation requires two key styles of sound: silly and unique elements for movements, devices, and creatures that can only exist in animation; and gritty realistic elements that make the animated world feel real.

The California Grassland Bundle includes two Libraries, California Grassland Abandoned and California Grassland Wildlife. The recordings from this library mostly took place in The Carrizo Plain, an open expanse of Grassland located West of the Mojave Desert in California’s Central Valley.
California Grassland Abandoned recordings feature dilapidated remnants of old ranches, water tanks, barns, metal sheds, farm machinery, and corrals. Many of these were far off the beaten path and a number of miles were logged along dirt and gravel roads. The focus was to record things that had a lot of character. Also included are calm, medium, and higher winds in metal sheds, small houses, barns, tall dry grass, and in some exterior locations out in the Plain.
California Grassland Wildlife features of over 30 different species of birds that can be found in Grassland, Plains, and High Desert Environments. Also included are a few recordings of Coyotes, Grasshoppers, Insects, along with some quieter ambiences.
At first glance, one wouldn’t think there’d be much wildlife out in such a vast remote area, but I discovered the Grassland has quite a bit going on. A lot of the old structures, along with the few areas with trees become the resting place and shelters for birds and animals. Over a span of two years I made a number of trips to this location trying to capture as much of the local wildlife as I could.
More info on both libraries can be found by clicking on the Individual links.
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.
