  • 96KHZ 24BIT • 658MB • 367 FILES • UCS 

    Welcome to a world of dark synthetic motion—where sound bends, morphs, and evolves into something cinematic, intense, and deeply textured.

    Cinematic Synth Movements is a collection of 367 meticulously crafted sound effects (658MB, 96kHz/24-bit), designed to bring movement, weight, and depth to any project. From slow, ominous bass movements to high-energy impacts and whooshes, this library thrives in the space between tension and release.

    Divided into two sections:

    • Designed – A set of powerful, cinematic whooshes and impacts, carefully shaped from the included source material. These sounds are polished and production-ready, built to hit hard.
    • Source Sounds – The foundation for deeper sound design. Bass morphs, synthesized textures, evolving sequences, whooshes, and impacts—layered and ready to use but left open for further sculpting and sequencing. These aren’t your average “source sounds” – they already pre-layered and carry depth and movement, waiting to be shaped into something new.

    Cinematic Synth Movements Trailer

    Both Designed and Source sound effects are completely reverb-free, giving you full creative control to shape it to any mix or environment.

    Whether you’re crafting futuristic weaponry, spells, trailer sequences, or larger-than-life cinematic moments, Cinematic Synth Movements delivers dark, modern, and evolving sounds that push beyond the ordinary.

  • This library features nature sounds and ambiences, recorded in two high-altitude alpine forests in Central Europe. Experience serene and remote landscapes characterized by the gentle rustling and rushing of wind through the trees. Occasional creaks of branches and a variety of bird species chirp and call out. The sound of Alpine Forest evokes a sense of harmony with nature.

    All recordings are clear and entirely devoid of external noise and human disruptions. This is why this library is particularly valuable for productions set in the past, such as medieval and ancient times as well as for historical and nature documentaries.

    All these nature ambiences are recorded using two microphone setups: a Double MS Stereo setup and a spaced omnis setup, the latter also providing extended frequency response. This results in three variations for each recording: Stereo, Wide AB Stereo, and 5-channel 5.0 surround. The variances between these options range from subtle to more pronounced, offering flexibility for crosscutting within scenes.

    Get 4 hours of unique, royalty-free and notably high quality recordings with this library. Recorded in 24 bit / 96 kHz. Accurately edited and mastered to sound as natural as possible. With an average duration ranging from 3 to 15 minutes per file, there’s ample time to integrate them seamlessly into longer scenes without the need for looping. For more detailed descriptions of the ambiences within this collection, please refer to the metadata provided in our file lists or listen to the preview montage.

    This library is UCS compliant (universalcategorysystem.com). In this new category system, all files contain extensive metadata like file description, Category & Subcategory. Metadata can be read and processed by the most common audio libraries management tools.
