    Universal Category System (UCS) Rain Play Track 113 sounds included, 240 mins total $66

    Rain is 4 hours / 7.74Gb of rain on many surfaces.
    113 separate files     – recorded in 24bit/96kHz. All sounds are UCS-compatible.

    Rain is a library of sounds collected since 2011. It features rain recorded as ambiances or beds and as specifics. For me, rain is the same as wind:
    if it sounds like white noise, it isn’t interesting. Just like my wind recordings, I have recorded rain where it hits something that makes a distinctive
    sound, something with a bit of character, rhythm or feeling.

    Over the years, I have recorded rain in M/S, A-B stereo and mono. I have used condensers and contact mics. All of that is represented
    in this collection.

    Some of the recordings exist in both original M/S versions, as well as the decoded results (XY). In this way, you can get ready-to-use stereo,
    or get more control of width (or just the mono signal) with M/S. A few of the sounds were only recorded in mono, and I have left them in as such. They are quite percussive and close-up anyway, so may be used as elements. You also get several seamless loops.

    You will find rain on man-made materials, as well as vegetation, and even a couple of rain recordings from Sri Lanka and Tokyo. These have been released previously in their own libraries, but I thought they were both interesting and generic enough to do some good here as well.

  • Environments & Ambiences Moscow Exteriors Vol. 2 – Hot Play Track 136 sounds included, 567 mins total $34.30

    Second episode of our journey to Moscow, Russia, but this time – during summer and autumn

    We recorded the most interesting sonic atmospheres, such as wet and dry traffic, streets, singing birds, wind in the endless parks, fountains, construction work, yelling children, rain and thunder, suburban villages, crowds and many more.

    To capture this sound palette I made another stealth recording kit, but now, using LDC (large diaphragm condenser) microphones. This has improved the sound quality and made the recordings even more detailed, to continue creating the largest sound library series about Russia.

    KEY POINTS:

    • An excellent addition to your library for film, TV and multimedia – Moscow in summer and fall time
    • Stealth recording with LDC mics gives the absolute naturalness and allows you to be where you can not operate with a traditional set of microphones with large windshields
    • Sorted by seasons, time of day, weather and location-type categories.
    • Recorded with Audio-Technica BP4025 XY and Sennheiser MKH 30/40 MS microphones
    • All files have extensive metadata included

  • Wind and Foliage Sound Effects
    Wind and Foliage Sound Effects
    Weather Sound Effects Wind Foliage & Vegetation Play Track 23+ sounds included, 90 mins total $50

    The Wind Foliage & Vegetation sound effects library are 23 files of wind passing and blowing through plants, trees, grass straws, and wheat fields, recorded in remote forests and fields in rural Sweden and Denmark.

    Common for all files are that they are focused around capturing the more close up sounds of the vegetation moving and interacting in the wind.

    Wind can be a tricky thing to capture with an audio recorder and a set of microphones. Sometimes there is just not enough wind to make the recording very exciting, sometimes, especially these days, takes are being ruined by distant traffic, planes passing by etc. Another problem with wind in foliage is that many times the constant rustle of leaves will make the recording sound like constant white noise.

    By placing the microphones on the actual grass and wheat straws, much of the white noise effect is removed, because of the sound of the actual straw is more present. The same result is present when a parabolic dish and microphone is used.

    These are the preferred methods used in all 23 files in this sound library.

  • Drones & Mood Sound Effects Harmonic Series Drones Play Track 48+ sounds included, 48 mins total $40

    • Harmonic Series Drones is an extension of several of my music compositions. Over the past few years, I’ve been very interested in data sonification, writing several pieces that turn real-time weather data into music. This library was created using a drone generator that turns weather data into sound. I built this drone generator for my piece Sitka for piano and seasonal electronics.

    • Instead of pulling weather data from Sitka, Alaska, as I did in the piece, I used 2016 daily temperature data from the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, a fragile place wrapped up in current political drama and now open to drilling. This library is a sonification of 2016 temperature data in ANWR. The highest global temperature on record was recorded in 2016 (2016 Global Climate Report). It is even worse in the Arctic where temperatures are warming at twice the rate of lower latitudes (2016 Arctic Report Card). With this library, you’ll be able to hear the warming, and I hope this library helps to draw attention to the rapidly changing environment of the Arctic.

    • Each of the forty-eight drones corresponds to the average temperature of a day in 2016, with twelve drones from each of the four seasons. The drones are built from pure tones made from tightly filtered pink noise. These pure tones are then stacked in harmonic series relationships. For instance, a winter drone might consist of the fundamental and four lowest partials. A summer drone could have the fundamental and partials seven, fourteen, and thirty-two.

    • The drones stand on their own without the story. If you never knew they started with weather data, you would still find a variety of pure, rich, microtonal drones with enough variety to fit the mood of any project.

    2% FOR THE ENVIRONMENT:
    • Two percent of the price of this library is donated to an environmental cause. I view it as an “artist royalty” for the planet!

    KEY FEATURES:
    • All files are sample seamless loops. So, there are no fade-ins and outs and the files are ready for looping in any DAW.
    • Consonant and dissonant drones
    • Simple and complex drones
    • Each of the 48 drones is between 1 and 1.5 minutes in duration
    • Non-periodic undulating drones
    • Each harmonic has a randomized gain, so the drones pulse non-periodically.
    • Drones were made from tightly filter pink noise, so drones have a small amount of soothing and airy pink noise.
    • Microtonal harmonic series relationships create beautiful beating between drone harmonics.
    • All drones have a fundamental of G1 (49Hz). Transpose them as needed to fit any project.
    • Partials are included in the metadata, for example, “fundamental_G1_harmonics_1_2_3_4_7_16”.
    DATA SONIFICATION:
    • Weather data included in the Soundminer Description and BWAV description fields.
    • Temperature data was translated as a combination of lowest harmonic, number of harmonics, and highest harmonic.
    • Generally, lower temperatures include bass harmonics and higher temperatures include treble harmonics. For example, the hottest day of the year only included harmonics 18 and 24.
    • Location: weather data is from the NOAA station at Helmut Mountain, Alaska in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.

    RECORDING TIPS – HOW TO RECORD RAIN:
    • Use microphones known to perform well in high humidity. I use Sennheiser microphones. View my full gear list – here.
    • Use cables made with Neutrik X-HD Series waterproof connectors. This keeps water from getting into your cable connection points.
    • Use a dry bag for your recorder. I like the Sea to Summit 65L bags because they have a wide mouth and can easily fit a recording bag through the opening.
    • Put your dry bag at least 25 feet away and cover it with local foliage. Otherwise you’ll just record the sound of rain hitting a dry bag.
    • Use a Cinela Pianissimo Double Mid/Side blimp with a Kelly Rain Cover.
    • Coat the inner cover of the Cinela Pianissimo with NixWax as Cinela directs on their website. This is a water repellant molecule that is also acoustically transparent. The water repellant causes the water to bead up and roll off while also letting the air through. Read more about how NixWax works – here.
    • The honeycomb of the Kelly Rain cover disperses drops as they hit the blimp which minimizes thumps. However, don’t use the Kelly Rain cover in areas with lots of insects because they tend to get stuck in the honeycomb, buzz for hours, and ruin recordings. The honeycomb cover also doubles as excellent protection for the blimp if a bear/moose/elk decides to chew on it.
    • Find a section of forest with low and dense deciduous leaves. These leaves catch the rain so drips don’t thump on the blimp. Occasional thumps during heavy rain are okay because they are easy to edit out in post.
    • Waterproofing a microphone blimp is totally game changing. I can now leave my rig out in the elements for 24 hours without fear of rain. Waterproof blimps and 32-bit float recorders have opened up a whole new world of recording for me  and I couldn’t be more excited.
    • Build a platform of local foliage to cover the blimp for extra protection. George Vlad has an excellent video on how to build a natural rain canopy – here.
    • I learned many of these rain recording techniques from George Vlad, so make sure you check out his work at Mindful Audio.

    Wind Ambiences | Echotope

    Versatile and pure wind for detailed backgrounds

    We used a double NOS setup, with Sennheiser microphones and  recorded in various conditions, including choppy, gusty, whistling, howling, calm, airy, swirling, and more. The slightly wider placement in NOS compared to ORTF helps to diffuse the less tonal wind characteristics.

    Most of our recordings were made during winter, when the barren trees provided a tonal quality that allowed the wind’s characteristics to stand out without being overpowered by noisy leaves. We included both very tonal and more noise-based layers in the collection, making it easy to create layers and control the ratio between them. We also added nine variations of expressive mono recordings that were captured in close proximity to sticks and other debris, creating tonal resonances that sound beautifully natural and full of character.

    Thoughtful UCS naming and accurate metadata

    We have given careful consideration to the file naming and metadata of the collection, keeping filenames short and concise while providing extra information in the metadata to help narrow search criteria.

    Whistling, fluttering and buffeting wind recorded indoors
    Interior wind is a collection of pitched tonal howls, steady breezes and dynamic powerful gusts in stereo and surround. It’s full of whistling, fluttering and buffeting wind recorded indoors. It has more than 3 hours of indoor wind ambiences from houses, apartments, cabins, halls and a car. All files are thoroughly and carefully tagged with metadata and have UCS-compliant file naming.

    The library is a great addition to Wind Ambiences.

    Interior Wind | Echotope

    Characterful wind without man-made sound or birds
    It’s a collection of wind from an inside perspective made with years of patience waiting for the right storms to come along while finding different locations with their own character.

    Pure singing wind and creaking houses
    Mostly recorded at night during the cold winter, the sounds are isolated wind through cracks, crevices, wind shafts and slightly open doors or windows. Some with the structure creaking and moving, others just howling tones. Others are the powerful sound of wind pushing against the wall or roof, adding pressure and buffeting.

    Great variety and many locations
    One of the locations we went to was in a house placed under a 120 meter (394 feet) tall power line. The power lines would resonate with a very low and ominous howl while the pylon would emit a specific note when the wind came from the right direction. Another recording session was done in a small wooden cabin in rural Denmark with all walls moving, creaking and making cracking sounds. Others were recorded in apartments or more traditional houses in rooms and attics.

    Getting control of the wind
    We would look at the wind direction and open windows and doors on the other side of the house to stimulate air flow and record through the tiny cracks. This way we got some control and could play with the tones and force of the wind.

    Recording techniques
    The surround files were recorded with an IRT Cross in surround while the stereo files range from XY to ORTF depending on the source.
    Everything was recorded with MKH50 microphones on a Sound Devices 744T.

    Close, Medium and Distant recordings
    The collection has variation in distance to capture both the creaks and movement in the room while others are recorded in closer proximity to isolate a detailed howl or whistle.

    UCS naming and metadata
    We have given careful consideration to the file naming and metadata of the collection, keeping filenames short and concise while providing extra information in the metadata to help narrow search criteria.
