  • Make use of the diverse mechanized noises from a standard office printer, scanner, and copier in your audio projects!

    Print is a boutique sound effects library of automated clicking, beeping, and whirring sounds all captured from a single Ricoh® laser printer.

    These printer recordings are perfect for office backgrounds. And they are equally useful in the sound design of retro-futuristic devices, robotic creatures, electronic gadgets, and steampunk industrial machines. The Print library also includes several pre-designed steampunk sound effects ready for immediate use.

    Print is also included in Pro Sound Effects’ CORE: Standard.

  • Recorded by renowned innovators of film sound design Ann Kroeber and Alan Splet, the Stallion library features an incredible variety of charismatic horse sound effects including movements and vocalizations.

    Intensify your projects with rumbling racing gallops, thumping canters, steady trots, and heavy rhythmic breathing. Bring creatures to life with the emotive whinny and neigh sounds of mustang stallions plus strong snorts, charming grunts, light nickers, and guttural exhales.

    Many of these horse sounds were recorded for major feature films including The Black Stallion, The Horse Whisperer, and Hidalgo. Splet’s work on The Black Stallion won him a Special Achievement Academy Award® for Sound Editing. This recognition was largely due to the quality and depth of the source recordings he and Kroeber created.

    Using a unique custom microphone rig (one mic fastened under the belly, another placed in front of the nose), the galloping sound effects in this library achieve an extraordinary dramatic quality with the horse’s powerful footsteps captured in harmony with its breathing.

    Get an array of horse footsteps at your fingertips – moving at every gait and on various surfaces from gravelly dirt to shallow water, grass, sand, cobblestone and more. The Stallion library also includes miscellaneous sounds like chewing, saddle creaks, stretching leather, and scraping carriage wheels.

    Following the libraries Cinematic Winds and Industrial Sounds with Soul, Stallion is the third exclusive release by Pro Sound Effects curated from Sound Mountain: Kroeber and Splet’s venerable private recording collection created over decades of film sound work with celebrated directors like David Lynch, Carroll Ballard, and Peter Weir. Kroeber has since worked on or supplied sounds for film, TV, and games – including 6 movies that won an Academy Award® in sound, and 7 additional nominations.

    Key Features:

    • 89 sound effects (1.1GB)
    • 24-bit/48kHz broadcast .wav files
    • Descriptive embedded metadata

  • Epic Impacts Vol. 1 contains a huge arsenal of powerful and evocative impact sounds, split into different categories, ideal for Sound Designers and Composers looking for bold and unique effects to bring their projects to life.
    To create this epic library, our Audio Craftsmen recorded sounds from instruments such as the guitar, piano, violin, zither and waterphone. We also recorded sounds of objects falling and hitting each other. We then layered analogue synths and manipulated the recordings to create unique sound effects. All the sounds were recorded in 24Bit 96KHz, allowing for additional sonic manipulation.
    The pack includes a variety of general impact sounds as well as category folders which can be used in the genre you are working with. An incredible addition to any sound library.
    Here are the included folders:
    Abstract and Sci-Fi: Modulated and futuristic, these hits are ideal for Sci-Fi movies and video games.
    Electronic Impacts: This category contains sounds with electronic elements and bass drops. Add extra weight to your mix with these deep and heavily crafted effects.
    General Impacts: A collection of hits with wide use cases, perfect for trailers or dramatic moments that call for a more traditional impact sound.
    Horror and Fantasy: Add anticipation and suspense with this collection of sounds designed from strange tones and abrupt effects, providing a mysterious edge to your productions.
  • Designed with innovation in mind.

    Each software application we provide pushes the limits of creating in its own way:

    Dust – synthesizer plugin based on a real-time particle simulation, where each particle is a separate granulating sound source.
    Wave Warper – for creating your own modern whooshes, passbys, and sample mayhem.
    – for morphing, bending, and stretching time and samples.
    Evil Twin – for cinematic sound and music design, granular effects, impacts, glitches, and bpm synced loops.
    Galactic Assistant – for creating endless user interface type sounds. The first ever UI synthesizer.
    DR01D – Included for free! Retro robot voice simulator.

    To learn more about each product, we encourage you to visit their individual pages, where you can watch tutorial videos, read more about them, and view the minimum system requirements.

  • Sprint Car Racing is a unique collection of sound effects of a sprint car driving through a speedway in Ontario, Canada. This library includes engine acceleration, drifting, high rpm revs, driving away and towards, racing other cars, slowing down, idling and much, much more. Perfect for designing those high octane, explosive, gas-guzzling engine sounds that are often needed in modern car chasing/racing scenes.

    The sounds were recorded using either a Sanken CS-M1 or a DPA 4060 and were meticulously edited by our Audio Craftsmen so that you can drag them directly into your projects. They can be used to represent many different types of racing vehicles, sprint cars and motorbikes as the engine sounds are similar to high performance and tuned vehicles of other kinds.

  • KTM 250 Enduro Motorbike contains extensive exterior recordings of a 2 stroke 250cc motorcycle captured on a private dirt track in Yorkshire, England. With an amazing collection of driving away and towards, pass bys, extensive foley, extreme revving and stunt sounds in different perspectives, this library gives you that full throttle, pedal to the metal sound that you only get from an experienced rider on their own vehicle. Perfect for use in any project with dirt bikes or motorcycles, or for vehicle sound design.

    Our Audio Craftsmen carefully planned and executed a recording session, capturing the essence of the motorbike with both a mono supercardiod mic and a stereo perspective mic for ultimate flexibility (these are provided as separate files). The resulting sound is full frequency, rich and textural, giving the impression of you being right there with the rider. All sounds are provided in 96kHz 24Bit and are perfect for complex vehicle design, being captured in the natural environment of the dirt track. As well as close up sounds, we also recorded some distant drive aways and approaches.

    The library also includes sounds of a rider getting on the bike, putting on his helmet, moving the kickstand, pulling the vehicle, starting the engine, turning off the engine etc. and riding away. We made recordings with the rider following our instructions but also let him freestyle ride on some recordings to allow for the most natural and immersive sound effects.
    All of the sounds were captured using a RODE NTG3 and a Sony PCM D-100, before being carefully edited and ready to be used straight away in your projects. They can be also be used to represent many different types of racing vehicle due to the nature of the engine being pushed to the limit during recording.
