    RICH CITY RAIN AMBIENCE

    Recorded over years in different cities, this highly detailed and very usable library will satisfy your rain and stormy weather needs for urban settings for years to come. High frequency range and meticulous recording techniques makes this a must have for city rain scenes in various media formats, from film to television to games.

  • Geese‘ contains a massive array of wild bird sound effects recorded from various canals, rivers, reservoirs and lakes. We are the first in the world to release a nature library with a specific, extensive collection of Goose sounds, which includes flapping wings, fighting, footsteps, paddling, swimming and jumping into water, eating various types of foods, a wide array of vocalisations including groups(gaggles), pairs, individuals and much, much more.

    Our Audio Craftsmen meticulously planned our field recording sessions considering time of day, weather conditions and different locations aiming to capture the full range of behaviour these animals display on a daily basis. We visited a variety of spots and spent time learning the behaviours of Geese, allowing us to capture their reactions as both individuals and groups of varying size. We recorded sounds during a variety of scenarios including eating food, fighting each other, and encountering ducks/other water birds. The huge difference in personalities between these birds allowed us to capture distinct vocalisations made while being fed, acting calm, aggressive or being threatened by rivals to their territory (even making sounds that could be mistaken for a dog, chicken or dinosaur!).

    We also recorded sounds from different perspectives which include tunnels (both inside and from a far), a gaggle of Geese approaching from a distance, fighting, flying and swimming by as well as close up sounds of eating, pecking and more.

    Moreover, all the sounds provided are dry in 192kHz 24Bit. Allowing for uses varying from nature documentaries through to excellent source sounds for creature and vocal design.

  • Sochi is a city and resort area of the Krasnodar area in the south-west of Russia.

    City of palms, sea, snowy mountains and mineral springs. Its located along Black Sea coast at the foot of western part of Caucasus mountains.

    Sochi is unique place because of attractive coastal and mountain landscapes, long beaches and warm (humid subtropical) climate. This combination allows, for example, to ski in the mountains and swim in the sea literally in one place!

    EMPTY CITIES DURING LOCKDOWN (restrictions due to Covid-19)

    The lockdown was such a restrictive and devastating measure for all the societies we live in. At the same time though, it created a unique opportunity in history from a soundscape point of view.
    This sound library frames that moment.
    I believe it could have, in first place, an historical and anthropological value.
    Attentive listeners will be able to appreciate how a reduced human presence did actually set free sounds that were barely audible, changing the perception of them. If earlier our ears used to meet constant sound streams, compact drones due to omnipresent traffic, now they can perceive a microcosm of sounds, small details, sound objects that bounce in the empty cities, finally free. Voices and murmuring of the few people around are all muffled by the use of face masks.
    Sound designers will be able to make full use of this microcosm to paint their backgrounds with lively environments, full of small sounds, buzzes, scattered voices, thuds, bells, and so on, all reverberated in empty open spaces.
    With human beings locked up, sounds got unlocked!
    Enjoy listening and feel free to get in touch for feedbacks at [email protected]

  • Niger Sahara Desert, ambiences and sound effects library By Iben Haahr Andersen

    Back in 2004 Iben Haahr Andersen travelled to Niger on an amazing journey into the Sahara desert.

    Her job was to follow a large group of nomads, travelling on camels back for 10 days to the desert town of Agadez to purchase sweet dates, which they would later sell to make a living.

    Through 10 days of extreme heat and hard labour, Iben recorded everything from the most beautiful and quiet starry nights, to daily life and struggle of the nomad people, sandstorms and desert wind, an interior mountain well, and grunts and cries from nomads precious desert animals, the camels.

    Iben came back to Denmark with a huge amount of DAT tapes, which now have been mastered in Protools, spectral repaired in Izotope RX, and with great help from Tim Nielsen & Michal Fojcik made UCS-Compliant in Soundminer, for a very special set of audio recordings!

    117 stereo tracks recorded on to a portable DAT recorder @ 48khz 16 bit. Set is about 4gb big when unzipped.

    Mics used, Sennheiser Mkh416 with an ATE 208 Emesser on top.

    • Agadez chaotic traffic scenes
    • Rain and distant thunder
    • Native nomad walla from children and adults

    • Interior mountain well with the most beautiful reverberation
    • Footsteps of humans and camel caravan passing on sand
  • Traffic Sound Effects Car Protest Play Track 46+ sounds included, 260 mins total $27

    This sound library features recordings of a car protest that took place in Gdynia, Poland. Due to changes in abortion law many people showed up on the streets. Since we’re in the middle of COVID outbreak, people decided to support the cause by using their engines and horns. I’ve taped two stereo sets to my car, and went there to capture it from both exterior and interior (one mono and one stereo setup) perspectives. This library features different location ambients, from subtle distant horns, through loud “peak” of the event recorded in the middle of everything that happened, up to masses of people walking by. Everything was recorded with stereo setup on the front of the car, stereo setup on the back of the car + two interior perspectives with windows closed, partially and fully opened. Also ambients were recorded with and without my contribution to the noise, that means that some files have my horn and engine revs, and some don’t. There’s plenty of material to choose from.

Carrying you away into the land of Mother Nature, untouched with technogenic and anthropogenic sounds. Busy morning of birds and insect in a marsh, streams in forests and a beaver’s dam, a rapid roaring river in a canyon. Mystically whispering and aggressively chattering winds through reed. A swallow feeding their nestlings in front of the microphone. Still evening over lakes with echoing voices of a Hobby falcon, Arctic Loon calls and splashy takeoff runs. Otherworldly silent night with Longhorn beetle larvae creaking communications in the trees at the shore, a bat at 30 kHz and a large beetle cruising around the mic like a helicopter with rumble down to infrasound.

  • City Life Sound Effects Shanghai Ambiences Play Track 65 sounds included, 199 mins total $79

    Shanghai is a fascinating and lively city, full of contrast – a mixture of old and new, with towering skyscrapers looming over winding residential lanes, with streets full of rattling old bicycles and electric scooters, with noisy trucks rolling alongside almost silent electric cars.

    The elevated highways that cross the city give certain areas a dense, constant rumble, while the city’s many parks offer a range of sounds, full of people and activity during the day, and generally quite empty at night – offering a diffuse, distant sonic perspective of the environment.

    This library contains many of the everyday sounds of the city, with a variety of on and off-street recordings, interior and exterior walla, park and bird atmospheres, restaurant interiors, traffic, and even a range of metro recordings. While some of this library’s sounds are quite specific to Shanghai, the majority could be used in other large city environments, particularly in but not limited to those cities where Mandarin is the most common language.

    All recordings were made with a pair of Lewitt LCT 540s microphones in an ORTF configuration. These microphones have extremely low self noise and a wide, balanced frequency response, allowing for the detailed capture of a range of sounds, from distant and quiet to close, loud and chaotic, from the deep rumble of engines to the supersonic screeching of brakes. Recorded at a sampling rate of 96kHz, these recordings contain detailed information above 20kHz, expanding the possibilities for sound manipulation by slowing and pitching down the recordings.
