Covering the animal war cries of the hunters of the shallow seas, AQUATIC PREDATORS is an unprecedented collection of animal sounds. From the barking of stalking seals, sea lions, and walruses to the whistling and whirring of murderous dolphins, this library packs all the bite you need for the seashore or to design the sounds of any terrifying creatures imaginable.
AQUATIC PREDATORS is a pristinely recorded library containing all the deep, throaty groans, raspy barking, and whistling of these famed mammals of the sea.
192 kHz – PERFECT FOR CREATURE SOUND DESIGN AND MORE
Except for underwater recordings, every sound was recorded in stereo in 192 kHz using the super wide range Sanken CO-100K microphone, capturing all the exquisite detail of these seaside hunters. With such a high sample rate, the recordings can be mangled, pitched, and stretched and still retain the acoustic beauty of the original sound.
WHAT WE RECORDED
We recorded 4 very diverse sounding aquatic predators of the world.
Walruses – Roaring and snorting
Bottlenose Dolphins – Clicks, whistles, and bursts of water
Sea Lions – Breathing, barking, growling and chugging
Seals – Groaning, barking, creaking and breathing
WHAT’S SO SPECIAL ABOUT THIS SOUND FX LIBRARY?
AQUATIC PREDATORS is a deeply sampled library of four avid seaside hunters. From the grunting sea lion to the whistling dolphin, these sounds pack a real bark. Delivered in a sample rate of 192kHz, there are endless ways to further manipulate these sounds for interesting creature sound design.
To record these high-quality sounds, we used our beloved MS + Sanken CO100k combination with a custom made rig by Pink Noise Systems.

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.
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.
