  • Foley Sound Effects Organic VS Machine Play Track 548 sounds included, 10 mins total $79.99

    Get ready to take your UI to the next level with this massive dual library of organically recorded sounds and machine generated sounds. This is not your average UI Library.The process for creating this library was simple: record every day sounds that happen organically. That includes pen clicks, paper crinkles, wood blocks, garbage rustling, paper shuffling, elemental material impacts and movements, etc. Then take those sounds and send them through a chain of modules in a modular synthesizer that is patched specifically to mangle, tangle, distort, pitch shift, warp, and rearrange. The result is somewhere between alien and mech, familiar and unfamiliar; a treasure trove of refreshing and unique sounds at your disposal.

    You might call it Future UI, Alien UI, Biotech, or Bio-Mech. Whether your project needs material, organic, clean UI sounds or futuristic, sci-fi, biotech UI sounds, this dual library gives you the freedom to pick one or the other or somewhere in between. All sounds were recorded at 192 kHz and with over 540 sounds your options are vast. Keep a clean sonic palate and choose from the Organic sounds. Build something refreshingly out of this world with the Machine sounds. The choice is yours, enjoy Organic vs Machine!

  • Geophonic Design contains a wide variety of unique and abstract designed sounds which include infrasonic frequencies as low as 10Hz. The effects in this library have a science fiction/horror vibe, everything from alien spaceships to underwater ambiences. These are perfect for your films, video games, documentaries and other projects that require a mysterious and ominous soundscape.

    Our Audio Craftsmen used a ‘Geophone’ which is a seismic measurement device used to record seismic waves and vibrations of the earth, to record low heavy vibrations and rumbles of various surfaces and materials, often using metal resonators to enhance the sound. We captured sounds from window glass, busy roads with vehicle pass bys, metal posts and rails with football impacts, water passing through pipes, metal containers, plastic buckets and much, much more.

    All of the included sounds were then precisely edited and designed by our dedicated in-house team to build ambiences such as: outer space, underground bunkers, submarines, weather stations and other abstract ambiences. Moreover, all the files are available in 24Bit 96kHz and extensively tagged with metadata and are UCS compliant to simplify your workflow.

    The subsonic sounds in this library will also make a great addition to your library as layered effects, to build an enigmatic mood in your projects, and will be perfect as drones and backgrounds for futuristic, sci-fi and horror scenes.

  • PURE, FRESH, SEASONAL FOREST AMBIENCES
    New and fascinating: DECIDUOUS FORESTS is our eighth SFX library from our remarkable series of high quality nature recordings by Emmy-winner and nature recording genius Gordon Hempton. He has searched the globe for more than three decades to record nature at its most pristine.
    WHAT’S INSIDE

    INCLUDED SOUNDS – KEYWORDS

    DECIDUOUS FOREST, NATURE SOUNDS, TREES, LEAVES, BIRDS, BIRDSONGS, CHORUS, SPRING, WINTER, INSECTS, CRICKETS, SONGBIRD, FLOCK, PASSING, CROWS, OWLS, WOODPECKER, HOOT, SQUAWKS, DAWN, AMERICAN TOAD, LIGHT, MORNING, WIND, ROAR, FIELD, SPARROW, WINGS, CHAT

    VARYING AMBIENCES WITH EVERY SEASON

    DECIDUOUS FORESTS are intimate and harmonious spaces. Their sound character is much quieter than that of tropical forests – but nonetheless spectacular. Their loudness varies and changes with the seasons, as the angle of the arriving solar energy gradually impacts their character. Winter, spring, summer or fall – you’ll find what you need to create the whole acoustic range of different weather conditions and day times in this collection, e.g. dawn onsets with early birds, day birdsongs and insects, wind drips and frogs, passing flocks, rainy storm aftermath…

    LIVELY ABUNDANCE

    DECIDUOUS FORESTS is especially rich with songbird and insect ambiences. The sheer selection of birds included in these all-natural hardwood ambient recordings ranges from American Robin, Barred Owl and Darkeyed Junco to Ruffed Grouse, Tufted Titmouse, Whippoorwill and so many more. Whether talkative, rhythmic, active or relaxed, their bird songs shape the unique characteristic of these natural cathedrals as the echo or afterlife of the original sound has a pronounced forest acoustic.

  • CRISP, FREE-FIELD SOUNDSCAPES

    A CLEAN STAGE TO SHAPE YOUR EXPERIENCE

    DESERTS are simple, spacious and lack echoes. Quiet prevails. Even so, you’ll want to challenge your audience, jolt them from their comfortable seats and immerse them in this inhospitable habitat. Do not be afraid to use harsh insects, driving winds, or even startle your listeners with a sudden, loud, unexplained alarm call of a strange bird nearby. Then settle them with expansive concerts, such as a reassuring gecko chorus composed of thousands of point-source clicks in step with the setting sun. All this is included in DESERTS – WEATHER & WILDLIFE which gives sound designers the easiest access to super-authentic soundscapes.

    COVERING EVERY ANGLE

    We offer you super-clean sounds from different deserts (temperate vs tropical), different times of day (morning, day, dawn) and different weather conditions. In addition you get very rare and clean sounds of desert wildlife.

    BEAUTIFUL ECHOES FOR ABSOLUTELY AUTHENTIC AMBIENCES

    Canyons have bright reflections and a deep resonant echo, making them a Holy Grail for nature sound libraries. The key to using Canyons to produce compelling sound designs is paying attention to the echoes as they vanish into a seemingly never ending space, allowing them to change and transform as they flow down a rock-walled corridor to ultimately disappear below the threshold of hearing.
