Hello Creators!
Here’s my second pack: “Book & Paper Sounds“
The approach for this pack was to create different sounds that cover the topic of books & paper. They can be used in different styles of video games or other media projects.
I’ve recorded different types of books (big book, standard book, newspaper, magazine, map, etc…) and different actions (pass page, flip pages, drop, erase, writing, grab, open book, etc…)
I hope you enjoy implementing this sounds in your project!
Making-Off
All this sounds were originally recorded with a Zoom H6 (cardiod microphone) and an AKG Perception 220, and were processed in Logic Pro X, mainly editing the recorded material but also I used the Logix Pro X sampler.

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.
