  • Scraped Cymbal is a collection of 78 sounds, pristinely recorded, edited and mastered as 96k/24bit stereo wave files.  This companion to the Bowed Cymbal series gives you more options for your stinger attacks.  David took the old, slightly cracked crash cymbal, and literally cut into it with tin snips (picture below).  He then took pliers, bent up some of the cut parts, and began experimenting with scraping various parts of the cymbal and adjusting the microphone position.  The tonalities produced are almost nauseating!  Deep rumbling lows, shimmery atonal highs, gut-wrenching mids – it’s a sound designer’s dream!

     

  • Swish is a micro-collection that contains a ton of variation of two objects swinging around, creating swishing/swooshing sounds.  The first is a simple cat toy wand and string, that used to have feathers on the end.  The second is a branch from a thorn bush.  The collection includes individual swishes, multiple swishes, and continuous swishes (swirling around and around).  Each at various speeds.

  • Foley Plus 2 is a smattering of sounds from the Foley and sound effects vault of owner, David Fienup.

    There is cloth, footsteps, smart phones, keyboards, microphone handling, food and drink, a wide variety of props, glassware, skin, appliances, leather, metal, plastic, bottles, cans, furniture, paper, sports, water, tools, and much more.  Please check out the track list, as there are far too many to name!

    This collection includes both ultra-clean, in-studio Foley and sound effects, as well as field recordings.

     

  • Interior Ambiences Vol 1 is a collection of room tones, and handy sounds to help you build interior ambiences.  This includes wind whipping through the trees outside, thunder, rain and hail just through a doorwall, various bathroom fans, HVAC humidifier dripping sounds, furnace pops, and even footsteps on the floor above the microphone position (separate from other sound files).  There are plenty of nice, quiet, airy room tones to use as your base layer.

  • Printer Destruction is the result of destroying a desktop Canon MX450 printer/scanner with a 4lb Collins Axe. The collection also includes the printer being dropped from a height of 4 feet, as well as rummaging through the debris.

  • Fireworks is a collection of small, consumer fireworks fountains with all the fizz, zip, zap, pop, and crackling that you would expect. There are also 2x 6-minute ambience tracks from 4th of July 2014 in Ann Arbor, Michigan, as people set off fireworks all around the city. You can hear fairly close, and very distant explosions from both municipal and residential displays. These two tracks were edited down from much longer recordings to remove any long pauses in the action. It was a beautifully quiet night, except for the fireworks!

    Baby Robins is a selection of recordings of a Robin’s nest with 3 baby birds being fed by their parents.  You can hear the whoosh and flapping of the adult Robin’s wings as they swoop in with nom-noms, the babies chirping loudly to get some of those fresh grubs and worms, and finally the deep pounding of wings as the adults swoop out of the nest in pursuit of more food.

  • Fine Sand Debris is a collection of fine sand being poured, dropped, thrown and cascaded across metal, plastic, and wood materials. The high sample rate of 192k makes these sounds great source material to be twisted and stretched to the heart’s desire.

  • Nature’s Fury: Rain is a collection of a wide variety of rain on various surfaces: light, heavy, splatty and more!

    This portion of the library contains light, medium, and heavy rain. There are even tracks labeled “splatty” for locations where the water built up on roofs or in trees and caused a cacophony of splat sounds.

  • Sci-Fi UI is a collection of 401 unique, futuristic, alien-technology sounds divided into 7 thematic collections. This is not just another collection of bleeps and bloops. The sounds were created by manipulating field recordings, Foley, and sound effects giving them a personality with an organic, emotional and performative feel.
