Home Sound Effects
Sen6 has been recording and mixing up audio for the film, television, gaming and VR worlds for over 10 years.
It’s mainly one-person operation—just me, recording and crafting sounds, and building virtual instruments that help bring projects to life.
Oh, and I’ve got a serious love for ambisonics, so I try to work it into most of my recording sessions for that extra immersive capabilities.
At Sen6, I believe great sound design is all about the details. Whether it’s imagining different ways an audio asset might be used or fine-tuning each recording to perfection, I put thought into every step. My goal? To make sure you’ve got clean, well-organized sounds that are ready to drop straight into your project.
From capturing the initial recordings to editing, tagging, and organizing files into a neat, easy-to-navigate system, I take pride in keeping things smooth and simple. Plus, I always work with top-notch gear to ensure the sound quality is on point.
If you’ve got any questions, ideas, or just want to chat, I’d love to hear from you!

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.
