Home Sound Effects Metal Gears Cast Iron
$25
Get your gears grinding with 281 sounds by a metal sheet bending machine from the 1950s.
Made out of cast iron by Thyssen Krupp, this machine was used to bend i.a copper sheets to create rain gutters or other parts of drainage or heating systems.
The library is composed of two main elements, the outer cogwheel held by a hammer clutch to calibrate the rollers, and the inner cogwheel used to lower or raise a massive clamp to bend the metal sheet at a right angle.
The outer cogwheel creates snappy impacts, as the hummer clutch snaps into place, providing you with the base for your next lever or mechanism design.
The inner gear on the other side provides both calm and screeching grinding gears, as the heavy clamp is raised or lowered. Setting you up, for the next intricate mechanism design.
The cogwheels were recorded from two angles and the library contains both single files, as well as a joined file, per sound and stereo files for the outer cogwheel.
Resulting in a total of 984 wave files in 96kHz and 24 Bit.
Hi,
I’m Rene a sound designer from Dortmund Germany. I’ve been collecting sounds since 2017 and found my passion in recording the craftsman workshops and industry all around the Ruhr area. Based on my upbringing in my father’s workshop, I have a fascination for tools and machinery, as well as the auditive characteristics they contain.
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.
