  • Animal Sound Effects The Animal Symphony – Flight of the Bees Play Track 224 sounds included, 12 mins total $8.80

    The Animal Symphony – Flight of the Bees was made possible by the collaboration of “Mieles Sandrita“, who opened their doors to us and provided exceptional care throughout the recording process.

    This sound library offers 55 high-quality audio tracks, each with multiple variations meticulously captured to ensure unmatched sound quality. The recordings are organized with consistent nomenclature, making it easy to combine or swap takes depending on the needs of your project.

    Recording bees in motion posed a unique challenge, as they kept flying around the microphones, and tracking them accurately was virtually impossible due to the number of bees present. Still, we managed to capture complete swarm environments, including tracks with predetermined durations and continuous loops. Some takes can be combined, as on occasion a bee remained within the capture radius of all microphones simultaneously.

    Most of the fluttering sounds are available individually so you can create your scene according to your preferences. Additionally, the sounds are not pre-panned, allowing for complete flexibility in adjusting them to your mix.

    The recording was done with high-end equipment, such as the Sennheiser MKH 8050 microphone, the Sanken CO-100K and a Zoom H6 recorder to capture stereo sound. Thanks to ultrasonic capture, by lowering the pitch of the recordings, a depth and frequency richness is maintained ideal for creative uses, such as the creation of spaceships, jet engines or any sound design.

    The tracks were recorded at 24-bit and 192 kHz / 96 kHz, guaranteeing professional quality in every detail.

    Finally, all recordings have been carefully edited to remove external noises, such as birds, wind, people or footsteps, ensuring a clean experience ready for use in any professional production.

    Ideal applications:
    – Video games: Add realism and depth to the natural environments of your games.
    – Cinema and Documentaries: Enrichment of the audiovisual product with authentic sounds.
    – Educational Applications: Use these sounds in educational projects to teach about wildlife and animal behavior.
    – Multimedia Projects: Ideal for any project that seeks to enrich the user’s listening experience.

    Technical details:
    – Total audios: 55 (224 Individually)
    – Format: 192kHz – 96kHz/24bit
    – Equipment used: Zoom F6 recorder with Sennheiser MKH 8050 microphone and EM258 capsule microphone, as well as a Zoom H6 recorder for stereo.

  • Aircraft - Jet/Propeller Plane Sound Effects Suburban Wilderness Complete Play Track 155 sounds included, 1101 mins total $129

    Garden and nature all over the year: the fresh spring air filled with a morning concert of birds, crickets and summer ambiences, echoing neighbourhood chatter, gardening sounds, dogs barking, roosters crowing, jets and propeller planes passing overhead, as well as the profound silence and eerie presence of nocturnal animals in the depths of the night; the awakening of nature and residents in the early morning hours, and much more.

    ‘Residential Forest Complete’ combines all four libraries of long-term recordings from a German allotment environment into one. This remote area, surrounded by forest, features cottages, ponds, and an abundance of natural sounds. The library provides a rich blend of suburban, residential, and forest ambiences.

    ‘Suburban Wilderness’ includes 155 unique ambiences recorded in Germany during summer (August 2021), spring (April 2022), winter (January 2023) and autumn (October 2024). From these 96 hours of recordings, I have carefully selected and edited the finest moments, creating a 19 GB soundscape that takes listeners on a journey from afternoon to evening, through the night, and into the morning and midday hours in this residential forest setting.

    To capture the profound silence of the night, I used a matched pair of Rode NT1-A microphones with exceptionally low self-noise, paired with a Tascam HD-P1 recorder.

    The total duration of the library is approximately 13 hours, with most ambiences ranging from 5 to 10 minutes in length. Some are longer, while a few are shorter.

    ‘Suburban Wilderness’ was recorded in AB stereophony at 48 kHz, 24-bit.
