Fire Sound Effects Fiery Movements Play Track 297 sounds included $19.99
96KHZ 24BIT • 547MB • 297 FILES • UCS

Fiery Movements is a high-quality, new PMSFX library built for creators who need fire to move fast, slow, eruptive, or scorched into the air. Crafted for modern cinematic sound design, this collection delivers an arsenal of over 297 meticulously designed fire-based motion effects, from aggressive whooshes and trails to bursting impacts.

What sets this collection apart is its origin: over 90% of the fire movement sounds were synthesized in Bitwig Studio’s GRID, where analog-style synthesis, FM, distortion, and spectral shaping were combined with macro-modulated dynamics and convolution layering. The result? Fire that doesn’t just sound real – it sounds scorching hot!

Perfect for sound designers working on:
- Trailers
- Fire magic
- Explosive transitions and cinematic sequences
From fast-passing flame whips and pressure-heavy blasts to longer, smoky, and textured burn trails — this pack offers a versatile range of fire movement textures ready for layering or as stand-alone assets.

DESIGNED IN: Bitwig
