Metal sound effects
The gondolas lifts of Whistler are one of the most wonderful machinery pieces made by man to move them around the mountains.
This Sound Effects Library recorded the sounds of these unique vehicles during wintertime. The library shows multiple gondola perspectives, from its interiors to many Pass bys, and P.O.V’s of the cables that suspend this huge lifts. You will find different sizes and kinds of gondolas. Enjoy them and enjoy the experience of sound
This sound library contains a multitude of coins on different surfaces with a wide variety of performances. The coins come from different countries and some are no longer minted. I also used heavy centenary coins to simulate old world coins for your gaming audio needs.
All content was recorded using high-quality, professional equipment – Neumann KMR81i and Sound Devices. All files were recorded at: 24bit, 96 kHz in an acoustically treated room. Meta Data is also included.
Metal Bars & Bells: 49 shimmering, oscillating bell-like sounds from various metal objects. UCS-compliant.
No actual bells were harmed in the making of these sounds – but several other metal objects were. Crow bars and stainless steel soap trays are some of the sources of these beautiful, resonant sounds; ranging from clear, distinct glockenspiel-ish, to shimmering, modulated otherworldliness. If you’ve ever wanted to add square tubular bells or wrought-iron percussion to your mix, then this is your thing.
You get:
• Clean, high quality sounds
• All files trimmed to start, for ease of use in samplers
• Several variations per recorded object = organic and expressive productions
• Metadata included in CSV and ODS (OpenOffice) formats
• Add delay & reverb, put on headphones and…Heaven…

This library is the result of tinkering with shotgun mics recording inside of different tube structures. When our initial tests produced a wide range of sonic colors, we went all in.
The tubes used include organic and man-made materials, some rigid, some flexible, some dense, some light, all with varying lengths, diameters, and thicknesses. They consist of bamboo, PVC, 2 variations of vinyl, thin plastic, copper, tin, rubber, dense foam, and a steel-coiled membrane. Each material has a different effect on the sounds passing through them. We generated turbulent drones, thick strikes, resonant scrapes, noisy bells, delicate debris, and more. The overarching characteristics are soft, insulated, and misty. Due to the behavior of the waves in the open tubes and the pickup pattern of the shotgun mics, there is a natural frequency modulation that gives the sound a slightly narrowed, hollow timbre. They work very well in simulated settings, enclosed spaces, and when there is a need to exaggerate the magnitude of tiny worlds. But they are equally as useful as raw design fodder, especially when a unique texture is needed.
This is our first library created solely for the sake of experimentation, though based on the results, it may not be the last!

This sound library includes the sound of hammer impacts, mallet hits on an anvil, many foleys such as pick and drop clamps, hammer on an anvil, and stand. In addition, it consists of water sizzle, working bellows (load, no-load, fire, no fire), and horseshoe clanks.
A recording session was in a native Ukrainian village in the smithy.
All files have a natural reverb effect with a short tail, so I decided not to touch it for a more natural-sounding.
I used two Oktava MK 012 mics and Shure FP33 Stereo Mixer for boosting with analog limiters.
This extensive collection of industrial ambiences features heavy machinery, mechanical rumbles and diffuse urbanscapes from the following locations:

To build the range and palate of character that we needed for this collection, we transformed community park and green-way bridges into large-scale percussive instruments. We sought out 12 very special bridges in particular locations and sampled many different performances on them to elicit the right sorts of impacts that we were looking for. Each performed impact has 3 layers, 2 mono and 1 stereo, all with different perspectives due to mic placement.  These sounds are highly dynamic, containing an artful blend of the locale they were captured in, and can add some very rich color to any explosion, impact, or crushing event in your editing mix. Go ahead and do your best (or worst)!
These sounds can take a beating. Â Enjoy!

“Worldwide Church Bells” by SpillAudio is an SFX library with 186 unique sounds from 47 different church bells from all over the world.
All the sounds are gathered from the Bulgarian “The Bells Monument”, built in Sofia to commemorate a communist event in 1979. In the beginning, there were only 77 bells, but as time passed and more events took place, more bells were brought to the monument and in the present, there are nearly a hundred. Most of the bells were set by children’s delegations that participated in the assembly. A copy of a bell from the IV century B.C can also be seen in the collection.
This SFX pack contains sounds from the surviving 47 bells, from which single hits were recorded, as well as various sequences of ringing.
All bells:
Algeria, Angola, Armenia, Austria, Brazil, Bulgaria, Cambodia, Colombia, Cuba, Cyprus, Denmark, Egypt, Ethiopia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Israel, Italy, Laos, Lebanon, Libya, Malta, Mauritius, Mexico, Mongolia, Netherlands, Palestine, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Romania, San Marino, Senegal, Seychelles, Spain, Sudan, Syria, Tunisia, UK, USA, Yemen, Zimbabwe

The library is great for traditional coffee prep/cafe ambience, and also easy to turn into experimental steam punk mechanical type sounds.
All content was captured with a Sanken CSS-5 Stereo Shotgun mic in both mono and 120 degree stereo mode. The microphone was mounted in a full Rycote windshield kit and connected to a Sound Devices 702 recorder.

With A Sound Effect, Asbjoern has created a web site where our international community can browse, learn, and share the vast fruits of our labors. Together we are accelerating the very real potential power of sound design as a recognized art form.
A Sound Effect is an excellent resource for us to keep our animated films sounding unique and exciting.
A Sound Effect is a great asset to have discovered.
We found the site very easy to navigate, purchasing and downloads were effortless and the effects themselves are awesome! Asbjoern has done us all a great service.
We’ll definitely be back!
There are many great independent sound effect libraries available these days. The main problem with having so many, is keeping track of them!
A Sound Effect is a great hub, and is one of the first places I visit to look for sounds by category or genre. I started coming here to see if I could find libraries that I knew I had heard, but forgot WHERE I had heard them.
And in the process discovered libraries I never would have found otherwise. Great work! Keep it up!
We're always looking for new sounds to mangle, so when A Sound Effect had a holiday sale, I tried them out.
The purchase experience is really smooth and quick, and delivery is almost instant.
I'll definitely come back to them again in the future!
A Sound Effect is a wonderful resource for indie sound effects libraries. On top of that, it has some of the finest sound design, film and game audio interviews!
I often need very specific types of sounds so I've become a big supporter of independent recorders.
Until now I've always had to go to their individual websites. Now I can find them all in one place.
And, Asbjoern is great to work with!
A Sound Effect is a well curated boutique sound effects shop and a great place to find industry interviews and learning resources.
