We have also captured sounds from window glass, busy roads with vehicle pass bys, metal posts and rails with impacts, water passing through pipes, metal containers, plastic buckets and much, much more.

  • Door Sound Effects Wood and Metal Creaks Play Track 344 sounds included $29

    Introducing a bold new take on Wood and Metal Creak SFX that will help you bring your project to the next level.

    As sound enthusiasts, we were keen to bring something new to the table for this category of sound…and so a novel recording approach was created to produce the sounds for this library. Due to the incredibly subtle (and not so subtle!) audio details embedded in creak sounds, a recording environment is required with particularly effective sound isolation. At the same time, a high level of control over the variety of surface type and performances of the creaks themselves is needed. Our MacGyver recording engineer Phil found a solution that produced a setup within which we had isolation, control, and variety… the “Creak Box”.

    The Creak Box is able to capture the most detailed essence of most resonant surface types, and has multiple stages of tension with which the performer of the creaks can play with. Happy with the source sounds that were being created – which is always the most important stage from beginning to end – we found that a multi mic rig was needed. To really get the depth and detail of these creaks we found that the best results were achieved by using a spatially tweaked-up microphone setup using the contact mic LOM Geophon, a pair of cardioid Sennheiser Mkh8040s, and a shotgun Rode NTG3. The best recordings always come from testing multiple mic positions, and experimenting with input levels and mic positions; this sound library brings you only our best takes.

    As sound designers, we always need new, better, varied material. We want to feel excited by and connected to the sounds we use – enjoy and make it yours!

    Wood: Old wood stairs, doors, floors, ships, houses, twisting and bending wood, chairs, tables, fences, and more.

    Metal: Big and small doors, small squeaks, huge resonant duct and convector surfaces, chairs, benches, wires, bedsprings, and more.

    (The video bellow contains added room tone to show some of the sounds in context.)

  • Metal Sound Effects Metal Movements Play Track 476 sounds included From: $49

    FRICTION – IMPACTS – RATTLE
    You want to make those epic cinematic metal sounds used in every film or video game but don’t have the right tools?
    METAL MOVEMENTS is a strong sound design toolkit made to create powerful impacts, massive destruction and epic transitions. This extremely versatile collection of metallic squeaks, scratches, rattles, impacts and various metallic movement sounds from different perspectives gives you the best source materials when it comes to making your own cinematic metal sounds. Let your creativity flow: pitch, stretch, layer and hugely process the sounds to their limits.

    RECORDED IN AN ABANDONED FACTORY HALL
    The perfect spot to capture the sounds for this library was an old factory building. The place was full of huge steel girders, rusting barrels, chains, rattling metal sheets and resonating poles. The unique sound of the former production hall provided a huge and clean reverb that makes the recordings sound really impressive. In addition to the metal sounds you will get the original impulse responses of the hall.

    AVAILABLE IN STEREO AND QUAD
    Because of the special sound quality of the factory hall, you can get the library in both stereo and quad. If stereo isn’t enough for you, dive into the surround sounds and create something stunningly immersive. Each version also includes near mono recordings with less reverb so you have even more options to manipulate the sound.

  • Cinematic & Trailer Sound Effects Impacto: Morphed Acoustics Play Track 294 sounds included $49

    IMPACTO contains a wide variety of sound types, ranging from trailer impacts and granular clouds to drones and full-fledged melodic tracks, which can be used as music stems in movies or games.

    Most of source sounds were recorded using Sanken CO-100K ultrasonic microphone, which can capture frequencies up to 100 kHz, to get the most interesting sound foundation.

    For this purpose I recorded various objects and textures (metal, glass, wood), as well as traditional acoustic instruments, strings, large gongs, singing bowls, didgeridoo, percussion, female vocals, chanting and etc. These sounds were further heavily processed with plug-ins, custom Max/MSP patches and external effects to get strange and unusual results.

    The library also contains Source folder with recordings that are almost not processed (apart from pitch shift).

    As a bonus, all sounds are integrated into Kontakt instruments with user-friendly interface and several effects (LP filter with resonance, AR envelope, three-band equalizer, reverb, delay and chorus).

    November 2020. During last year´s Covid Pandemic lockdown, we took all our gear and visited “Entorno Doñana” equestrian facility in Boalo, Madrid.

    Trot, Gallop, single horse, group and pair of horses and several surfaces: Grass, dirt, asphalt and even water! We covered every posible movement the horse could perform. Also some nice neighing & buffing!
