Tension Resonator – Metallic Cable Oscillation SFX Library
Raw metallic resonance, captured in the wild.
This library delivers a focused collection of high-fidelity metallic tension recordings, sourced from a real suspended steel cable stretched between two mountain structures.
Using a Geofòn and Cojossul contact microphone positioned at key resonance points, every vibration, harmonic, and oscillation was captured with extreme detail. When struck or set in motion, the cable acted like a giant string oscillator, producing:
-Resonant pulses and impact transients
-Frequency sweeps traveling along the cable
-Rich physical harmonics and metallic overtones
All sounds are presented clean, unprocessed, and phase-aligned, making them highly versatile for:
-Layering into energy weapons, plasma blasters, or sci-fi UI
-Designing bass pulses, industrial drones, and tension risers
-Creating cinematic impacts or motion design SFX with tactile realism
Specs:
-192kHz / 24-bit WAV
-Metadata embedded (UCS compliant)
-Recorded in pristine outdoor mountain environment
-100% royalty-free

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.
