  • Animal Sound Effects Forests and Mountains Play Track 96+ sounds included, 220 mins total $110

    Forest and Mountains features nature and wildlife sounds from California, Washington, and Oregon.  Included are a number of bird recordings and forest ambiences, along with some insects, winds, rivers, and rain.  

    These were recorded over the past three years in various forests, foothills, and mountain environments.   A lot of these took place in or near Southern California’s Angeles Forest and San Gabriel Mountains, an area that spans 1200 Square Miles and varies vastly in terrain.

    Also included are some sounds from Northern California, along with recordings from the Pacific Northwest.

    The recording techniques for this varied as sometimes I went with the recorders running unattended to capture night, dawn and early morning.  Other times I’d record while being close by.

    Working as a Sound Effects Editor I’ve curated this collection with Editors in mind.  Background Ambiences and Spotted FX can really bring a location to life and give it so much story and character and that was a lot of the inspiration behind putting this all together. 

    Forests and Mountains

     

    The Locations

    California (61 Files) – This is where a majority of the sounds from this library were recorded and specifically Southern California.  Variety of areas and different environments, mostly around Angeles Forest, from Lower Elevation Foothills to more rugged mid-elevation Mountain Canyons and then much Higher Elevation and more remote terrain.  Also included are a few recordings from the Eastern Sierras and Northern California.

    Washington (19 Files) – Southern WA in Gifford Pinchot Forest and various Northwest Forest areas near Puget Sound.

    Oregon (16 Files) – Lakeside Recordings in forest and marsh at Klamath Lake in SE Oregon.

    Metadata
    Detailed with descriptions and markers and photos to easily navigate and allow for options when searching.  UCS was used to categorize and various bird species are identified.  I’ve also labeled the metadata with what I consider Lower Elevation (up to 1500 feet), Middle Elevation (2000-5000 feet), and Higher Elevation (above 5000 feet).   Included are the season of the year which was mostly Spring and Summer.  Using Open-Tier in Soundminer you can use these to help get a bit more specific to particular environments.

    Magpie Studio is a sound library capturing the vocal journey of young magpies, from their first cries to their early adult calls. This collection tells the story of four chicks that fell from their nest after being abandoned by their parents.
    Most of the sounds were recorded in a studio environment in mono, with each chick recorded individually, along with a few stereo recordings featuring all four together. Only one long recording was made outdoors, capturing the moment they were released back into the wild.
    The chirping of the young magpies has not been edited individually, as their early vocalizations are not yet distinct enough to be identified as separate “words” or “sentences”. Instead, longer recordings are provided to capture the broadest range of their developing vocal expressions and so categorized by mood. However, the adult magpie’s calls have been carefully edited and categorized by complexity—ranging from simple one- or two-syllable calls to more intricate vocalizations—allowing you to create your own bird conversations.
    All sounds were recorded in 96 kHz / 24-bit quality.

    • Mono recordings were captured using a Neumann KM 150.
    • Stereo recordings were made with a Neumann AB pair.
    • All recordings were done using a Nagra recorder.

    P.S.: All the birds regained their strength and were successfully released back into their natural habitat.
