  • Drones & Mood Sound Effects Aeolus: Dark Wind Textures Play Track 45+ sounds included, 154 mins total $40

    Aeolus is a collection of gritty and eerie sound design elements performed entirely by intense winds. These recordings were made on custom-made wind harps, handmade props, barbed wire fences, telephone poles, and other found objects. It is utterly unlike a normal wind library.

    This collection of layers and elements of howls, drones, moans, creaks, rattles, clatters, and clanks provides rich material for the creation of unsettling ambiences, eerie presences, spooky room tones, and textural sweeteners for realistic winds. Aeolus is filled with conveniently long takes of piano wire, power lines, barbed wire, and other found and prepared objects that rumble, chitter, chatter, resonate, and whistle, in both gusty and sustained winds. Its sounds are perfect for horror scenes, magical effects, straining force fields, steampunk ambiences, extreme weather, high desert dramatic tension, or rusty post-apocalyptic soundscapes.

    This UCS-compliant sound library is not a pure field recording collection; it contains lengthy recordings that are both minimally processed and extremely time- and pitch-altered. Some recordings lasted overnight, then reduced to mere minutes, remapping sound events into unfamiliar cadences or into/out of human hearing range. 

    Aeolus includes over two hours of raw recordings and twenty additional minutes of designed sounds from the original recordings, ready to use in a project or to serve as a launchpad for further inspiration.

  • Ambisonic Sound Effects Ambisonics – Springtime Woods Play Track 25 sounds included, 171 mins total From: $35

    Sintra’s woods are famous for their mystique and peculiar flora selection, a result of its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean and by the ingenuity of humans on planting foreign species over the course of multiple centuries, resulting in a location that remains green throughout all four seasons, attracting a wide array of bird species and constant weather changes, sometimes occurring all in a single day.

    Taking advantage of RØDE’s NT-SF1 ambisonic microphone, the woods were thoroughly explored, where each of the 25 audio files present in this library was recorded in different locations, resulting in multiple diverse atmospheres, where the predominant soundscapes are the beautiful early morning bird calls accompanied by smooth wind gusts and a couple of surprising occurrences throughout, courtesy of strange insects, angry ducks flying around, amongst other oddities. These audio files are perfect for neutral springtime soundscapes.

    This sound library is available in both Ambisonics FuMa (B Format) and Stereo (Binaural) formats.
