  • City Life Sound Effects Streetscape Play Track 27 sounds included, 117 mins total $40

    Streetscape is an extremely focused urban ambience library: It features nearly two hours of exterior stereo recordings of only a few city blocks, portraying a gritty and dense urban setting, perfect for any urban thriller, modern noir, or cyberpunk project.

    Recorded four stories above street level in San Francisco, articulate details are balanced with natural diffusion and slapback in this dense urban corridor, allowing the recordings to sit in a mix with definition but without distraction. The recordings are between three and nine minutes long, have UCS-compliant filenames and metadata, and are provided with markers describing significant sound events. They have been carefully curated to not have any music from radios inside passing vehicles or local businesses, no wind, only adult voices, and only a handful of birds can be heard in a few of the recordings.

    The ambiences range from quiet and sparse to vibrant and active, with shouts and murmurs between car pass-bys and other events, echoing off the buildings crowded together like uninterrupted canyon walls. The city comes to life through the clanks of truck lift gates, rattling manhole covers, skateboard wheels over sidewalks, and even open grates down to the subway below, emitting an infamous “howl” as the train cars pass underground. Conversations, arguments, vehicular beeps, garbage trucks, electric buses, motorcycles, hydraulic brake releases, jackhammers, police sirens, car alarms, and more provide textures and specific sounds useful for any story set in a big city.

    Whether used as full beds or sliced up into specific sound events, Streetscape can help build a dynamic, lived-in city soundscape for your film, show, or game.

  • Car Sound Effects Hyundai Tucson Diesel Automatic 2019 model Play Track 16 sounds included, 21 mins total $5

    Check out the Hyundai Tucson Diesel Automatic 2019 Model. I took advantage of my old family car, which provided me the opportunity to capture some genuinely cool and authentic sounds. In order to get the best quality audio for the ‘non-moving’ shots, we chose a quiet car park at night, ensuring the environment was serene and devoid of any intrusive noise. For the driving shots, we devised a custom mic stand/rig tailored specifically to keep the microphone steady, guaranteeing the sound remained as sharp and crisp as possible. With our 28 years of extensive experience in post-production, you can absolutely count on us to meticulously transform your film’s audio from AAF to the final WAV format, ensuring it is imbued with remarkable detail and unparalleled quality.

Prepare to be captivated by the sheer sonic detail and unparalleled flexibility these recordings offer!

    A deflated football

    A comfortable garden chair

    Don’t miss the audio demo!

    Recorded in MID SIDE (so remember to decode) and at 192K for the absolute maximum audio manipulation.

  • Drones & Mood Sound Effects External Rumble Inside Play Track 230+ sounds included $30

    I’ve lived in houses near busy roads. Cars driving by at all hours of the day…. Pass Bys… Vehicle Revs, Engine Rumbling, etc etc etc…..Ruining perfectly good recordings. But this time, it’s used to our advantage. All recordings are made during sound effect record sessions. Instead of removing unwanted car sounds, they are amplified, isolated, gained up, increased level.

    All recordings range from 0-500Hz and can be used to create organic, real drone like sounds. Rumble, Tremble, Quake, Shake, Sci Fi, Pitch Bends, Rev, Resonates, Trembles and more. Use as a layer in a drone, vehicle, LFE/Subwoofer channel, and whatever else comes to mind. So buckle up and listen carefully, put on your best headphones or listen on your best speaker system.

    Disclaimer: Be cautious, these sounds have extreme high volumes in the lower frequencies. Please take care, don’t listen too loudly.

    Exterior Rumble Inside uses no special processing other than EQ, adjusting gain, and using iZotope Rx to assist in selecting frequencies to adjust.

    These sound files were recorded at 32bit, 192kHz using the Sennheiser MKH8050, Sennheiser MKH30 and Sanken CO-100K microphones into a Sound Devices Mix Pre-10ii.
    All are metadata tagged using the Universal Category System in Soundminer, and also searchable in Soundly, and Basehead.

  • Environments & Ambiences Rivers and Waterfalls Play Track 91 sounds included, 256 mins total $50

    This collection has over four hours of streams, rivers, and waterfalls, all recorded without birds or man-made noise. The 91 recordings offer a variety of perspectives, from close-up to distant, highlighting the natural gurgles and splashes. Everything was recorded in northern Norway, Belgium, and northern France.

    I created this collection primarily for myself, aware of the many Rivers and Streams libraries out there, but I couldn’t resist sharing it after enjoying the recording process so much. The sounds capture everything from the intense rush of water just above the roaring rapids to the gentle flow of rivers hundreds of meters away. In quiet natural environments, the sound of flowing water can be heard from very far and this really impacts the soundscape in a beautiful way. I also designed some waterfall samples, focusing on texture to avoid the typical pink noise. These additions sound powerful yet natural. There are also low-end recordings of a large waterfall, captured between rock formations, which deliver a deep roar with minimal high frequencies—perfect for enhancing water sounds.

    Many of the recordings were captured during a 30-day hiking trip through the northernmost parts of Norway. Crossing rivers without bridges was a significant part of the journey, and these sounds instantly take me back there, wet feet and all. I hope you’ll find them useful!

  • Animal Sound Effects Collections Amazon Basin Ecuador Play Track 155 sounds included, 400 mins total $120

    Sweeping my flashlight across the still water I see the red glow of multiple black caiman eyes, a haunting stillness. Suddenly a reverberating splash breaks the rhythmic chorus of frogs and crickets as a caiman finds its evening meal, the first of many tonight. Giving a greater sense of space to this Amazonian lake the eyes of the caiman go on glowing, waiting for an unsuspecting fish to pass their open mouths. 

    It is impossible to not be present in the rainforest. Surrounded by mysterious night vocalization, stinging, biting insects, and penetrating humidity. Gratitude fills me for the Cofan guides who have taken our small group of sound recordists deep into their wildest territory. Nearly a constant buzz fills the soundscape which takes a few days to adjust to, but as I do I start to notice the thrilling variety of calls. Near and distant, there is a spectacular spaciousness and an intimacy that can only come from this unique location.
