Nature & Countryside Ambiences

Nature sound effects and recordings, from forests, jungles, plains and fields

  • COYOTES 1 – DESCRIPTION:
    • In High Desert Ambiences 4: Coyotes, I revisit the place where my field recording journey started: West Texas. On my drive out, a massive wildfire was burning large parts of the Davis Mountains. The day I arrived firefighters were finally able to contain the blaze, but sadly not before 22,000 acres burned. Much of the wildlife is too slow to escape, but luckily one pack of coyotes was fast enough to climb over a ridge. Normally I hear coyotes out in the plains where they love hunting jackrabbits. That night, however, I was recording from the edge of the dead fire. I was stunned to hear howling deep in the valley! The pack had run into the mountains to escape the blaze.
    • In this library, hear the angst-ridden vocals of coyotes running to escape a wildfire. Hear the howls and yips of an extremely close pack bouncing from high valley walls. Hear an echo chamber filled with the haunting howls of coyotes who has just had their home burned.

    2% FOR THE ENVIRONMENT & CARBON NEUTRAL:

  • Baltic Quad Surroundings captures the urban sounds of Riga city and its adjacent suburban and rural areas, located in the Baltics, Northern Europe. A Quadraphonic library for your next surround work. Takes are approximately 4 to 5 minutes long or even longer, so that should cover the majority of movie scenes. Please listen to the stereo samples, or download the Quad samples to hear full potential of these recordings here: Quad Recordings Demo

    Since this is our first release, we are also adding a free bonus micro library with quad recordings of passing trains that we encountered during the recording sessions. Enjoy!

    Recorded with a spaced Quadraphonic omni setup.

    The recordings were done in early spring when vegetation has not yet grown leaves, to avoid unnecessary noise pollution. Some recordings are made at night to keep bird activity to a minimum.

    This is the first library that results from a steady need for authentic and realistic surround backgrounds.

    The most common problem we have with surround sound libraries is that they are too exotic, or have too much activity. So, we took matters into our own hands and started to explore different surround recording techniques. Our recordings can be used as a surround soundscape “beds” or layers. This allows controlled additions of other elements to build up the scene and keep the viewer’s focus on the storyline.

    The goal was to record diffused sound field atmospheres and that is where a spaced Quadraphonic Omni setup shines. Human hearing does not rely only on level differences across the frequency spectrum – in fact, our auditory system heavily relies on the difference of sound wave arrival time to each ear. This is especially important with frequencies below 800 hertz.

    So spaced microphones result in more believable sound field recordings than point source recording techniques like MS or other compact systems. The phase is also not an issue, it even decreases as microphones get placed even further apart. The only downside to this technique is the big and bulky rig and that it requires individual wind protection for each microphone.

    Our future goal is to add a dedicated center channel to the recording rig and to start building up way bigger and more sophisticated libraries. Stay tuned for future releases!

    As hard as it is to capture all of China in one library, this one offers a pleasant natural feel from some of its landmarks.

    You will get fine farm atmospheres with the lakes, farms, crickets, frogs, birdsong in Dali. Listen in awe to the monks singing and chanting in Buddhist temples in Shangri-la and stroll through the ancient town.

Find peace at the grasslands with strong atmospheric sounds of yaks, cows, bees, horses, birdsong, wind and rain.

    This is the toolkit to create the perfect cinematic atmospheres, with or without being in the foreground. The length of the ambiences is mostly enough to meet your needs without loops. Some can be adapted to other urban or rural ambience needs. It gives you access to varying activity levels in close, medium, and distant perspectives.

  • Water & Ocean Sounds Streams and Rivers Play Track 120 sounds included, 157 mins total $79

    SOUNDS OF FLOWING WATER
    Creating this library we travelled to many secluded places to capture the pure sounds of flowing water: gently gurgling springs and small streams in deep forests, calm rivers between rocks or fields and thundering waterfalls splashing down mountains. Bring your projects to life by using, layering and transforming our water sounds in a creative way. Streams and rivers are an important part of our world and they form a big part of our aural experiences. Large rivers may flow majestically quiet, but other aqueous entities produce a lot of interesting sounds: they bloop, splash, spray, sprinkle, burble, roar, rumble, dribble, drip and drizzle. Every stream sounds different and mostly the variations consist of small, subtle changes.

    DESIGN YOUR OWN WATER SOUNDS
    Create all kinds of flowing water, layer waterfalls into a loud roaring mass or design the pure and gentle sound of a fresh spring.
    Included are 120 unique sound effects, all carefully metadata tagged and seamlessly loopable to give you the highest possible comfort.
