The Exterior Vibrations Bundle contains over 400 raw contact microphone recordings of dynamic movements captured in exterior environments.
2.51 GB of tonal, textural sounds were captured by our Cudio Craftsmen using stereo-configured contact mics. Interactions with a huge range of surfaces and materials (including metal, plastic, water, wood, plants and vehicles) were made to produce an abstract collection of hits, scrapes, drags, knocks, squeaks, taps, shakes, bounces, braams, creaks and more!
This organic bundle is perfect for designing or incorporating into abstract projects. Their resonant, slightly unnerving quality also facilitates design and processing for horror and sci-fi projects.
The entire bundle is delivered at 24 Bit. Vols. 1 and 2 are delivered at 96kHz, and Vol. 3 at 192 kHz. All sounds have been meticulously edited and tagged with extensive UCS compliant metadata for ease of use.

TRAIN LIFE is a detailed and in-depth collection of various Exterior Freight, Passenger Trains, and Railroad Ambiences.
Rumbling Freights roaring through the desert landscape, horns reverberating across the hills, passenger trains zipping by. The metal groan, creak, moan and clack, screech and bang of slow moving rail cars. Idles, Arrivals, Departures, Bys and a variety of Horns from Doppler to Close and Distant Perspectives.
You’ll also find a few old Electric Trains, a collection of Ambiences from Harbor Ports, Desert, and Railroad Yards, and Semi-Trucks rattling across the tracks.
THE GEAR
Recorder

METADATA
A great deal of time and effort went into the mastering of this library so the files can easily be dropped into any project. Very detailed Metadata has been provided so that all of the sounds are easily accessible. Photos have been embedded with each file to help out. UCS compliant, markers have been placed where applicable to make for quick navigation.
The Story to Train Life
The first Trains I recorded were while traveling around Portland, Oregon. I was camping along the Columbia River Gorge not too far from the tracks and throughout the night I would constantly hear the rumble vibrating through the ground and the long Horns echoing and reverberating across the Mountains. A few days later I was hanging out by the Willamette River under the St. Johns Bridge and was fortunate enough to come across a Freight Train going through an hour-long process of idling and connecting cars. Huge slack metallic bangs, slow long drawn out groans and hydraulic bursts reverberated across Industrial buildings. I was hooked.
Back home in Los Angeles, I set off on the quest to find more trains to record. After spending a number of times sitting idle and patiently waiting for hours only to come up empty, I did a bit more research. A big thanks goes out to a few Train museums and Railfans for providing much invaluable information and pointing me in the right direction. I learned the times of the local Passenger Trains and found out what areas were better for getting more isolated recordings. I discovered the major transportation routes where Freights run from downtown L.A. to the Ports near Long Beach. I drove out into the Mojave desert on multiple trips and took the back roads that lead out to Bakersfield where trains rumble through tunnels and rolling hills.
As I gathered various sounds, I made a list of what I was missing and tried to find areas where I could catch a Train doing that. It was quite the challenge! Over time I also realized that even when sitting for hours on end waiting around, there was a particular wonderful sound to the surrounding environment, and I figured it was probably worth documenting as well. Eventually it all came together into TRAIN LIFE.

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.
A pack of 20 courthouse crowd sound clips: halls, atriums, courtrooms, & corridors. 1.5 GB.
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.
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.
A Sound Effect is an excellent resource for us to keep our animated films sounding unique and exciting.
A Sound Effect is a great asset to have discovered.
We found the site very easy to navigate, purchasing and downloads were effortless and the effects themselves are awesome! Asbjoern has done us all a great service.
We’ll definitely be back!
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.
