The first volume of the Useful Sound Effects Wind collection contains designed and synthesized winds. 56 Files give you the freedom to go from deep and dark sci-fi winds to natural sounding polar storms. Sandstorms, wooing and gusts are also included. Ranging from 1 minute to over 4 minutes, these files are fast and easy to use. Some files are indicated as looped, the others can easily be looped in a DAW.
Metatagged and UCS compliant, all files indicate a possible use, but sounds can be placed anywhere in a project, whether it is in a film, a game, a dialogue setting, or any media presentation.
Since these wind sound effects are made from scratch, no disturbing sounds can be found, so no animals, no distant traffic… You get clean wind, applicable for any geographic location, anywhere in time, on earth or elsewhere in the universe!

Haunting Ambiences Vol. 3 is the direct successor to one of our most popular horror sound effects libraries. This product contains dense, multilayered construction kits, everything you need to build a world around your horror scenes with separated stems.
Our Audio Craftsmen captured creepy ambiences and sounds from the cellblock where a couple of notorious killers (The Moors Murderers) were held at The Old Courthouse, Manchester. We captured various ambiences, creaky cell doors, metal bangs, vocalisations from multiple voice actors and much, much more. All of the sounds were then meticulously edited and designed to make 10 construction kits including a mental asylum, vampire’s prison, gas chamber, experimental lab, underground prison, haunted ship prison etc.
These dense ambiences include split stems with the same running length to encourage experimentation, allowing you to add or subtract certain elements, balance them or combine them with sounds from other construction kits in the pack. In addition, all of the files are available in 24Bit 192kHz with extensive UCS compliant metadata to integrate seamlessly with your workflow.
This bundle is perfect for use in your films, documentaries, video games, escape room/live experiences and other horror/sci-fi projects.
This library consists of numerous recordings as a result of experimentation with the H2A hydrophone. Various domestic and suburban appliances were utilised for the creation of this library.
All sounds were recorded using the H2A hydrophone and Sound Devices Mix-Pre 6.

With A Sound Effect, Asbjoern has created a web site where our international community can browse, learn, and share the vast fruits of our labors. Together we are accelerating the very real potential power of sound design as a recognized art form.
A Sound Effect is an excellent resource for us to keep our animated films sounding unique and exciting.
A Sound Effect is a great asset to have discovered.
We found the site very easy to navigate, purchasing and downloads were effortless and the effects themselves are awesome! Asbjoern has done us all a great service.
We’ll definitely be back!
There are many great independent sound effect libraries available these days. The main problem with having so many, is keeping track of them!
A Sound Effect is a great hub, and is one of the first places I visit to look for sounds by category or genre. I started coming here to see if I could find libraries that I knew I had heard, but forgot WHERE I had heard them.
And in the process discovered libraries I never would have found otherwise. Great work! Keep it up!
We're always looking for new sounds to mangle, so when A Sound Effect had a holiday sale, I tried them out.
The purchase experience is really smooth and quick, and delivery is almost instant.
I'll definitely come back to them again in the future!
A Sound Effect is a wonderful resource for indie sound effects libraries. On top of that, it has some of the finest sound design, film and game audio interviews!
I often need very specific types of sounds so I've become a big supporter of independent recorders.
Until now I've always had to go to their individual websites. Now I can find them all in one place.
And, Asbjoern is great to work with!
A Sound Effect is a well curated boutique sound effects shop and a great place to find industry interviews and learning resources.
