Typewriters is a sound effects collection chock-full of vintage typewriters making sounds beyond the simple click-clack-clunk heard in so many TV shows and movies. I was curious if there was more to the sound of these old machines than meets the naked ear. Would recording them with high-end Barcus Berry contact microphones help bring out the best in them sonically? After recording 20 typewriters for this library, and performing a variety of keystrokes and actions on each in isolation, I can definitively say, yes.
Included are standard, portable and ultraportable machines from the early 20th century to the mid-1970s. Each machine, metal or plastic, emits sounds that are almost musical in nature. These files can enhance your next sound design project in nuanced ways that exceed the usual clickity-clack-clunk-thwack-smack we associate with typewriters. You’ll get a variety of zips, rips, twangs, growls, bounces, snaps, zings, rings and dainty end-of-line warning bell dings.
In this library you will find recordings of walkman with radio.
Sounds include actions such as pressing buttons, tuning radio stations and frequency noises.
These sounds are perfect for sound design in movies, games, documentaries, etc.
These sounds were all recorded with microphone shotgun Rode NTG5.
After working these sounds in post production, this library comes with 47 incredible walkman with radio sfx sounds.
In this library you will find a dark ambience sounds.
These sounds are perfect to use in movies, trailers, games, documentaries, etc.
These sounds were all created by me on virtual synthesizers.
After working these sounds in post-production, this library comes with 10 dark ambiences.
Printer Destruction is the result of destroying a desktop Canon MX450 printer/scanner with a 4lb Collins Axe. The collection also includes the printer being dropped from a height of 4 feet, as well as rummaging through the debris.
Specially recorded for sound design, The Guitaresque Power Tools Library include clips featuring bizarre whines, grinding, hums, and more as power tools are “played” on guitar necks and bridges. Clips include rising and falling tones and one-shots.
Multichannel recordings of the ice (in sync): stereo, mono and underwater/under ice recordings. Audio tool for further sound design, production etc.
Multichannel, recordings of the ice; Surface/underwater recordings of the ice. Check the sound list for info/ object of recording.
Each multichannel recording (or position/place of recording) is in a separate folder. Each channel/recording is Metadata tagged with description of equipment/format/character. Each multichannel recording (each folder) consist of:
– 4 Ch STEREO Mix, all channels mixed together (surface and underwater), ready for use stereo file
– Ch 01-MID, mono file, front/MID microphone-cardioid, RAW
– Ch 02-SIDE, mono file, SIDE microphone-figure of eight, RAW
– Ch 03-HYDRO LEFT, mono file, Left side hydrophone, RAW
– Ch 04-HYDRO Right, mono file, Right side hydrophone, RAW
– STEREO HYDRO Mix, stereo file, two hydrophones mixed together, ready to use underwater/ice stereo file
– STEREO (surface) file
You can use mono channels to create your own mix (or use it as mono) or use a stereo-ready to use file (or combination of both).
Using mono recordings/files for multichannel mixing can be very creative for SFX, or maybe in film, for example, to accompany first surface (frame) and then underwater (frame) separated, or half submerged camera (frame).
For mixing stereo (surface) files (microphones) you will need an MS matrix (plugin). This is a very creative tool which allows you to control the amount of stereo field or front to side ratio of the sound captured. If you are not familiar with MS there is a ready to use stereo (surface) file and you can use/mix it with underwater/ice file(s).
(for MS: Sennheiser MKH40 – front microphone/cardioid and Sennheiser MKH40-side microphone/ figure of eight.) Hydrophones are Aquarian audio H2a XLR.

Skillfully performed using glasses as instruments, Sonomar Collection: Crystal Sing features 46 clean, high quality recordings of ringing vibrations perfectly suited for your harmonic tonal needs. This unique collection contains sonorous ringing tones at various pitches as well as sharp squeaks and rubs. Use the raw recordings to add hypnotic resonant layers to your projects, or alter them to experience the depth of Crystal Sing’s harmonic range.
To capture these sounds, sound designer and recordist Martin Pinsonnault (Big Little Lies, Dallas Buyers Club) and the Sonomar team used six different types of glasses including Ricard, cognac and champagne flute glasses. The tonal vibrations created by rubbing a wet finger along the rim of the glass were recorded in 192kHz with MKH-8040 microphones in ORTF setup. Each glass produced its own pitch and tone dependent on its size, shape, and the amount of water added. The rich high frequency response and minimal noise make these clean harmonic tones ideal for pitching and processing.
Each sound file is embedded with comprehensive metadata to help you find the exact sound effect you need with fast, pinpoint search. Enable creativity with detailed descriptions of each recording and their specific sonic qualities. Advanced metadata fields include translated French descriptions and additional info to ensure compatibility across any database search platform such as Soundminer, BaseHead, Netmix, Workspace (Pro Tools), Find Tool (Media Composer), Media Bay (Nuendo), Reaper, Adobe Premiere, and beyond.
Sonomar Collection: Crystal Sing is also included in Pro Sound Effects’ CORE: Standard.

This comprehensive sound library captures the rich and abrasive textures of metallic interactions, recorded in pristine detail for cinematic, game or experimental audio work. The collection features almost 470 high-resolution recordings and designed sounds, meticulously categorized into friction, impact, movement, miscellaneous, and tonal interactions, covering a wide sonic range from subtle squeaks to piercing screeches.
Highlights:
Vintage Radio includes long takes of AM and FM frequency browsing, along foley content featuring all the buttons and switches present on this old-school stereo receiver.
The AM static and noise recordings have a warmth rarely found on modern radios, perfect for use in military settings or obscure transmissions in spy flicks. The FM browsing sounds feature traditional rapid radio station switching with garbled voices, brief musical stings, and a mix of cleaner, harsher static and noise suitable for more modern contexts.
Both the AM and FM browsing takes also include extended segments where I experiment with this stereo receiver’s equalizer. These takes possess a certain musicality, as the frequency boosts and reductions introduce additional variation to the aforementioned neutral recordings.
To complement this library, there are foley recordings of all the buttons, faders and switches on this stereo receiver’s front panel.

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.
