Product Description

THE SOUND OF NATURE’S FURY

Thunderstorms are nature’s most electrifying spectacle, but capturing their raw power is no easy task. THUNDERSTORM CHASER is the result of six years of storm chasing, thousands of miles travelled, and some near-death experiences in pursuit of the most authentic thunder sound effects ever recorded. From deep, distant rumbles rolling over the plains to ground-shaking cracks of lightning, this library delivers unparalleled realism and spatial depth.

THE ULTIMATE THUNDER SFX LIBRARY – REAL, RAW, AND UNCOMPROMISED

Many sound libraries offer artificially enhanced or layered thunder sounds. THUNDERSTORM CHASER is 100% natural, recorded in the wildest storms across the United States. These recordings capture thunderstorms in its purest form, without post-production embellishments—just the raw, highly dynamic power of nature.

CAPTURED AND RECORDED FOR THE HIGHEST DEMANDS

With 36.1 GB of high-resolution recordings, THUNDERSTORM CHASER offers an extensive range of immersive soundscapes. Every file is meticulously labeled with precise, well-structured metadata, ensuring effortless searchability and seamless integration into professional workflows.

THE MOST FLEXIBLE THUNDER SOUND LIBRARY EVER

From stereo to surround, Dolby Atmos, and Ambisonics, THUNDERSTORM CHASER is the most versatile thunder sfx library available. Thanks to the Schoeps ORTF-3D microphone setup, these recordings immerse audiences in the storm, making them perfect for cinematic productions, VR experiences, and high-end game sound design.

 
 
BEYOND THUNDER – THE FULL STORM EXPERIENCE
While thunder is the star, this collection also captures the full storm environment:

  • Distant rumbles and eerie silences before the storm
  • Explosive lightning cracks
  • The pounding rain, hail, and howling winds that complete the storm experience
  • Unfiltered natural dynamics, allowing for perfect layering in sound design

WHAT IS SO SPECIAL ABOUT 3D SURROUND?

3D Surround has two enormous advantages over conventional surround sound. On the one hand, individual sound sources can be located much better and more clearly with 3D Surround. On the other hand, 3D Surround also reflects height differences much better. This results in a more extensive and much clearer sound image in a quality that cannot be achieved with conventional surround sound.

HIGH-PRECISION SOUND LOCATION

Conventional surround sound often provides a somewhat diffuse image of the sound source, making it hard to precisely pinpoint the direction where the sound is coming from and where it is moving to. 3D Surround draws a crystal-clear picture of the source recording for a complete sound experience.
THE 3RD DIMENSION – SUITED FOR VR & DOLBY ATMOS

3D Surround adds a height layer as a third dimension compared to regular surround. The sound not only reaches the listener’s ear from the side, but also from above. This results in a much better localization of the sound source and a much more immersive listening experience which makes it the perfect surround type for VR applications and Dolby Atmos.

RECORDED WITH THE MOST ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY
Our 3D Surround libraries are recorded with the highly-acclaimed SCHOEPS ORTF-3D setup, a cuboid 8ch level/time difference ambience setup. The main benefit is an additional height layer compared to regular surround recording setups. It consists of 8 supercardioid microphones.

The height layer offers a much wider range of spatial sound effects and a more realistic three-dimensional reproduction. Therefore, it provides a clearer representation of spatial depth, a more natural surround impression, improved envelopment, and an authentic feel.
