German engineering in its high performance.
I would love to introduce you to the 2019 Porsche 911 Carrera S sound library for your sound editorial and designing purposes.
The library comes in three dedicated sections: RPM Collection (incl. Idling), Drive-Bys (incl. Approaches and Drive offs) and Interior drive recordings.
After lots of thought and planning, I managed to record, clean, and edit the recording for an extensive and easily accessible editorial experience to your production.
The RPM Collection gives you a large range of multi-microphone proximate and one-meter distance recordings of the engine, as well as a broad variety of details of the exhauster. This masterpiece of engineering got recorded on a vehicle lift to gather sounds from unreachable angles, catching all the richness and details of the engine.
With a large collection of Idling, Reverse, Steady RPMs, Revs, Accelerations and Decelerations, you will be able to use these sounds as a wonderful organic layer to your vehicle sound designs and edits.
The Drive-bys, approaches, and drive-offs section can be essential to maximize the quality of your production! This package includes Mono sound source following and Stereo drives of the 2019 Porsche 911, with velocities starting at Walking Speed, 10km/h – 80km/h to Reverse.
The Interior Drive series portraits the most beautiful driving experience with its unique comforting interior and design. I am thrilled to share with you the quadraphonic interior recordings of the front and rear of the car.
Covering the sounds driving over cobblestone, uneven and normal roads (reverse drive included) at multiple speeds from Walking Speed to 160 km/h!
Side note: The engine becomes nearly silent in times, which leaves us with just a beautiful interior rumble of the car driving over cobblestones.
Let your designing imagination be the limit of your creation!

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.
