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.

Electromagnetic Dopplers Vol. 1 is a collection of stereo field-crossing pass-bys with a sci-fi edge. The included dopplers feature an assortment of speeds, pitches and timbres, enabling you to unlock your creativity when designing the sound of your spacecraft.
Doppler effects are a form of acoustic illusion, caused by the changing frequency of a source’s sound wave as it moves away from or towards an observer. Due to the Doppler effect’s realistic imitation of physical movement, you can incorporate these Dopplers into your work to enhance the dimensionality and verisimilitude of space objects.
To make this library, our Audio Craftsmen first captured signals from electric devices with an electromagnetic coil pickup receiver. These were then processed into Doppler effects with modulated crackling, static-y, whining and humming textures. The resultant sounds are perfect for sci-fi vehicle sound design and other extraterrestrial- or space-themed projects in the Film, TV & Game industries.
All sounds are delivered in 24-bit, 192kHz format, allowing for further sonic manipulation. They have been meticulously edited and tagged with extensive, UCS-compliant metadata for ease.

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.
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.
If you need a wider selection of interior gun recordings please check out our first library – The London Warehouse Firearms library
Florida Thunder by Eric Berzins contains 111 distinct wav files with over 200 dry thunderclaps and over 300 thunderclaps with rain.

All files have been meticulously edited and cleaned, and have embedded UCS-compliant Soundminer metadata.
Animal Hyperrealism Vol I is a library containing sounds themed animal vocalisations, from real to designed creatures totaling more than 1300 individual sounds in 290 files.

The asset list includes but is not limited to: african lions, bengal tigers, horses, donkeys, cows, exotic birds, owls, bobcats, pumas, dromedaries, wolves, dogs, geese, lemurs, gibbons and many more.
All 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. All files are delivered as stereo bounce of these four 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.
With A Sound Effect, Asbjoern has created a web site where our international community can browse, learn, and share the vast fruits of our labors. Together we are accelerating the very real potential power of sound design as a recognized art form.

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.
