Ringing Rocks sound effects library by Thomas Rex Beverly

Product Description

Ringing Rocks has the chiming, beautiful tones of an ancient boulder field. As hammers strike stone, the powerful clangs resonate like church bells and bring to life a natural sonic wonder. Plus, you receive many types of melodic tones, hammering rhythms, grinding metallic stone, resonant scrapes, and much more. If you need rocks unlike any you’ve heard before, listen to Ringing Rocks.

2% for the Planet:
Two percent of the price of this library is donated to an environmental cause. I view it as an “artist royalty” for the planet!

Additional Features: 
• Perfect for use as found sound percussion and can easily be made into a Kontakt sample instrument
• Rocks with a strong fundamental pitch include the closest equal temperament note in the metadata, for example, Db6.
• Bb’s, Db’s, and Gb’s are common throughout this boulder field
• If the rock did not have a strong pitch, unpitched and complex pitch descriptors are included
• Major third, minor third, half step and other naturally occurring melodic motives generated by “playing” the rocks with multiple hammers
• Audio files labeled by parent rock numbers: 1-31 to easily find samples played with different implements that have similar harmonic content
