Sound Effects

The aim of my store is to provide sound professionals with the tracks that they need to do their job at a fair price. The ambiences I record are designed to be largely as unobtrusive as possible, with no annoying, repetitive sounds or unwanted spikes in frequency or levels.

Starting with a Hong Kong ambience sound library, I have since made a European ambient collection and will follow that up soon with another two ambience libraries currently in the works.

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!

David Farmer

Sound designer:
Lord of the Rings & The Hobbit trilogies

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!
