Mechanical Sound Effects Scene Shop Play Track 260 sounds included, 58 mins total $54

Scene Shop is a collection of high quality recordings of industrial machinery used in scenic construction workshops. Some machinery are in good condition, others not so much so… expect lots of metal rattling!

Machinery are not recorded during active use (not during wood cutting for example) so the recordings are very clean and lend themselves well to being used for large elevators, lifts, automatic doors and generally metal machinery of any kind and size.

There are multiple takes for most of the sounds, all complete with startup, steady phase, and shutdown.

This collection is a mixture of stereo and mono, very sensitive microphones able to pickup beyond 20khz were used, so it was produced and post-produced at 192khz (these machines are already very big, but slowed down they sound even bigger!)

There are also some extra sounds such as the switches of the machinery, bursts of compressed air, large metal doors and others.

We’ll definitely be back!

Wayne Pashley

Supervising Sound Editor/Re-recording Mixer, The Lego Movie & Mad Max: Fury Road

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!

David Farmer

Sound designer:
Lord of the Rings & The Hobbit trilogies

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!

Charles Deenen

Director, Digital - Source Sound Inc.

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!

Zdravko Djordjevic

founder of The Audio Spotlight

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!

Bob Bronow, CAS, MPSE

Re-recording Mixer, Sound Designer: Deadliest Catch, Ax Men, The Wrecking Crew

A Sound Effect is a well curated boutique sound effects shop and a great place to find industry interviews and learning resources.
