Bicycle Sound Effects City Bicycles – UglyBike Play Track 54 sounds included $30

This is a unique bicycle library that captures this characteristic bike in clean, quiet, nicely performed true exterior rides. Including multiple perspectives, speeds and actions. From fast passbys on asphalt to slow onboard recordings and smooth stops.

The UglyBike is a typical old bicycle that’s working fine, but needs some TLC. It is a bicycle that’s just average, a little rattle a gentle scrape, a bike that everyone has had but got traded in for a newer one. A story of unrequited love.. :)

Speeds and actions:
Three speeds. Departures from slow, medium to fast getaways. Arrivals from slow stops with gently squeaking handbrakes to heavy stuttering skids.

Five perspectives:
1. Onboard Front: captures the whirring tire and surface sound.
2. Onboard Pedal: nice overall combination of pedaling, crank creaks, chain rattle, tire and surface sounds.
3. Onboard Rear: close up sound of the rear axle, with chain, sprocket and switching of gear.
4. Tracking shot: mono recording of the passby, keeping the bike in focus while passing by.
5. Static XY shot: stereo recording of the passby that emphasizes speed.

Overview of perspectives and mic placement:

Onboard recordings are 2-3 minutes long depending on speed. Higher speeds > shorter duration.
All 3 onboard mics are edited in sync with one another to make layering easy.
All Passbys, Arrivals and Departures move from Left to Right.

Metadata & Markers:

Because we know how important metadata is for your sound libraries we have created a consistent and intuitive description method that adheres to the Universal Category System. This allows you to find the sound you need easily, whether you work in a database like Soundminer/Basehead/PT Workspace work, or a Exporer/Finder window. We made a video that helps you navigate the library ans find your best bicycle sounds faster and easier.

CategoryFull
A quick way to filter out sounds you don’t need: like handling sounds or vice versa bicycle onboards.

UserCategory
Fastest way to find the type of action you need for all bicycles. Passby needed, just click and voila.

OpenTier
Once you’ve selected the bike you can open up OpenTier and audition and select the perspective you want to use.

Scene & Performer
This field contains the type of bicycle or other sound. So you can find the bike you like fast.

iXMLTrackLayout
This is a neat little identifier you will find in the Waveform displays and you can see in a glance what Listening position you are.

MicPerspective
We have another way to find perspectives but it is more limited to distance to the recorded subject.
So passbys are MED – EXT and handling are CU – EXT. Exterior? Of course: we recorded everything outside!

UserComments
We used this field to create the UserData and give you the minimal set of information about the recording in the filename.

Additionally, we added Markers to some wave files, so specific sound events are easy to spot in Soundminer and other apps.

If you have any questions about this, please contact us [email protected]!

Step into the world of the Fiat 500 1.2 2019 audio library, a meticulously crafted collection that offers a comprehensive and immersive auditory experience. This unique library captures the essence of the iconic Fiat 500, known for its compact size, retro charm, and efficient 1.2-liter engine producing 69 horsepower. The approach taken during the recordings was a multi-microphone setup, strategically placed to capture every aspect of the vehicle’s sonic personality.

Let’s start with the interior perspective. Equipped with an ambisonic interior microphone, this collection presents an intimate soundscape, placing you in the driver’s seat of the Fiat 500. Experience the subtle purr of the engine as it ignites, delivering just the right amount of power. Hear the gentle hum of the car’s components, the clicks and clacks of buttons and switches, and the comforting sound of the gearbox as it shifts seamlessly through the gears. Immerse yourself in the ambience of the cabin, capturing the vibrations, echoes, and nuances that make each journey unique.

The engine, a focal point of this library, has been meticulously recorded with a dedicated microphone, capturing the raw power and distinctive tone of the 1.2-liter engine. Experience the growl as the engine revs, the throaty roar as it accelerates, and the gentle hum as it idles. This library goes beyond the engine itself, providing additional depth with dedicated microphones on the exhaust and tire. The exhaust microphone delivers the symphony of the Fiat 500’s exhaust note, meanwhile, the tire microphone captures the distinctive sounds of the rubber meeting the road, allowing you to experience the tactile feedback of each turn, acceleration, and brake maneuver.

With this meticulously recorded multi-microphone approach, this library offers a comprehensive sonic palette for sound designers, game developers, filmmakers, and car enthusiasts alike. Whether you’re crafting realistic driving scenes, building immersive virtual worlds, or seeking inspiration for your creative projects, this library provides a rich and detailed soundscape, allowing you to bring the essence of the Fiat 500 to life with authenticity and precision.

TESTIMONIALS & BUYERS COMMENTS

“I had a Tesla in a show and realized I had no Tesla library – This kit got the job done perfectly – Thanks Rick!

-Jonathan Lipman, MPSE
Sony Pictures: “The Good Doctor” network TV series

“Rick’s TESLA SFX library was a life-saver for us on Season 2 of HBO’s Divorce, especially since Tesla demands that ONLY authentic Tesla sounds be used whenever their vehicles appear in a scene! Rick’s FX gave us that authenticity. Very valuable resource. Thanks Rick!”

– David Briggs
Supervising Sound Editor, HBO “Divorce”

“Hey Rick! Awesome job on the Tesla library! Literally minutes after downloading, I cut one of the servos into a commercial I’m working on… I’m going to get a TON of mileage out of the wheel recordings. I feel like wheels are a really difficult sound to get a great recording of… All around great job!”

Rated 5.00 out of 5
$180

Animal Hyperrealism Vol III is a library containing sounds themed animal vocalisations, from real to designed creatures totaling more than 1700 individual sounds in 279 files.

The sounds were recorded in zoos and wildlife centers. The asset list includes but is not limited to: european red deers, monkeys, reindeers, hornbills camels, crickets, tamarins, boars, frogs, red ruffed lemurs, parrots, and many more.

The content has been recorded at 192KHz with a Sanken CO100K plus a Sennheiser 8050 for center image and a couple of Sennheiser MKH8040 for stereo image.
Part of the cheats section of the library features samples recorded at 384KHz. For these sounds an additional microphone was employed, specifically the CMPA by Avisoft-Bioacoustics which records up to 200 KHz. This microphone was used to record most of the library but the 384KHz format was preserved only where energy was found beyond 96KHz not to occupy unnecessary disk space.
All files are delivered as stereo bounce of these for mics, though in some instances an additional couple of CO100K was added to the sides.
The resulting ultrasonic spectrum is rich and allows for truly extreme manipulation of the content.

Bonus: Two extra libraries included for free: This library also includes two additional releases from Mattia Cellotto - for free: Crunch Mode delivers 230 crunchy sounds made with a variety of vegetables, fresh bread, pizza crust and a selection of frozen goods.

Firearms Sound Effects Urban Environment Guns – FIBUA – Fighting In Built-Up Area Play Track 218+ sounds included, 226 mins total $199

Audiobeast is proud to present our second sample library; the only library of its kind to focus entirely on weapons being fired in urban environments! For this recording session we were given access to a military training site known as a FIBUA (Fighting In Built-Up Area) consisting of streets with a variety of buildings, vehicles, and exclusive permission to fire weapons in several locations. Pictures of the street and gas station locations and firing points are included.

The aim of this library was to offer the slapback type tails needed for gun sound design for convincing city scenes in film, games and tv production. It’s always been difficult to find gun recordings in a city environment so we hope this library helps sound people everywhere.

This Library contains over 3 GBs of weapons being fired in multiple urban environments, a street, outside of a gas station and inside of a tower block. 218 WAV files of single shots, bursts and many with multiple takes, all recorded at 96 khz 24 bit, with heaps of information on microphones used and distance from the firearms.

Various distances were captured, from the DPA4062 on the guns themselves, to the distant other end of the street 100 metres away. To add, some mics were positioned around corners, a nearby graveyard, through walls and in armored vehicles to capture a variety of perspectives.

Minimal cleanup on the recordings was carried out very carefully so as not to introduce any artefacts into the recordings, they are presented as raw as possible.

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.
